    Receptionist’s English was poor and they could have been more helpful. Decor felt tired and lifts were small and slow

    Good location close to Songshan station. Attractive art deco interior, quiet rooms, with good storage, strong shower, comfortable beds and free laundry.

    The only main complaint we have is the low temperature in our rooms. Even with extra blankets, the coldness still got to us through breathing. Unfortunately we felt the impact of the coldness after day 1. However, the staff was very understanding and tried to fix it. Seems like the heating doesn't work. Be prepared to feel a bit cold in the night.

    Staff are friendly. We stayed during New Years Eve and the hotel staff was inviting us to have a drink and snack. Very thoughtful! The location is also very convenient. Songshan MRT and railway are nearby. The Raohe Night market is also in walking distance. Good value for money.

    Well, very limited snacks as compared to other hotels. Their breakfast is a sandwich and some bread sticks. The building is kind of old and some rooms might feel old and stuffy. Ours was not but I did hear others complain. For S.E. Asians who are expecting a bidet in the bathroom - sorry, none there. Go UK style. The most interesting thing is although they have a standard sized bath tub. Their shower is NOT located in the same position. It is against the wall opposite the toilet.

    Location was one street over from the well known Raohe Night market. Easily walkable even for seniors or persons with limited mobility. The place itself is pretty quiet and you have a view of the Taipei 101. There are ATMs located less that 50 metres away. You do feel safe in the area as there is a police station less than 250 meters away. It is also close to the Songshan train station hub/ mall that serves the green line and the rapid express blue line. 700 meters away is the heart of the Wufenpu shopping district. This is where you can find mostly women's clothes. Bargain hard here as prices can be expensive.

    Little bit cold in rooms in winter months. Little bit far from city centre.

    Near metro and train station and night market. View on Taipei 101 from window. Free drinks in kitchen. Room enough spacious.

    Comfortable & convenient. Price on the high side for a 3-star, perhaps it's peak season.

    The bathroom/toilet design was a bit strange. No shower curtain. Instead, the shower water is meant to flow into a middle drain, which it does. But the toilet seat and the toilet floor nearer the shower area still get very wet. Price was a bit on the high side for a 3-star (also one that's a bit showing its age). Perhaps it's the peak season.

    Breakfast was pretty basic (given over the lobby counter) but the coffee machine and cold drinks were most appreciated.

    The room smell like been flooded recently. Not very present. Maybe it's the open shower design, water spill everywhere and became very slippy.

    Location is good, near the night market and public transport.

    Very near to Raohe night market, that is why we book this hotel. Room is clean, bed is comfortable, the room has the basic stuffs we need for the stay, and ok for the price.

    The décor and fittings were quite worn/tired - rusty in some cases - but matched the impression given in the pictures accurately. I didn't mind this at all, everything was very clean and functional, and it added an element of 'faded glamour' which gave extra character - all fine for an interesting and authentic low cost stay

    The hotel was excellent value, covered all the basics, and was located close to the brilliant night market
