"Location is fantastic, you have a MRT station exit at the hotel doorstep which is very convenient, and it’s on the quieter end of a main street through Taipei so you don’t get so much crowds. The hotel is very well maintained. Our rooms were basic but clean and comfortable.
The lounge was small but a great convenience; you can get water and Nespresso (there are also 7-Eleven vending machines on the lounge level).
The temperature control on the shower didn’t work properly; had sudden bursts of hot water when bathing our toddler but luckily we stopped it in time to avoid a bad burn.
There isn’t a desk in the room which may be a hindrance for business travelers or those who need to get work done in the hotel but I was there on holiday.
You sacrifice a pool for Japanese-style public baths, which I think is a unique selling point but not for everyone - something to keep in mind if traveling with family who like swimming.
There is no drop off for the hotel if you are using ride hailing or getting a private car, and the front of the hotel is occupied by a public bus stop but the staff is very helpful to get you into the car."
