"Great location close to Nanjing Fuxing station, I had a hiccup with my flight schedule and they were very accommodating. The room was pretty basic, the air con was cold (bonus points for quiet!) & my roommates were all considerate & chill. Showers were hot and clean, bathrooms were well maintained. The only real 'dings' I'd give are to the common kitchen area--not enough coffee mugs (and no glasses that I could find), not enough cooking equipment (if the single pan is in use (and the person...

"Love staying here when I come to Taipei. If you want a cost-effective, no-frills place to stay at that has breakfast and a communal hot tub to relax in, I don’t think any other place else comes close. Even if it’s on the outskirts of the city, access to nearby train stations makes in-town trips easy. "

Looking forward to my next stay….see you soon "

"Good location with lots of options for food but the common room smells like mold and there are cockroaches flying around. It's an older building with very limited space. This place definitely needs some improvement in hygiene manner. Will not stay there again."

"Property is fairly nice and very aesthetic. Also quite clean! The staff are friendly too!
Location is convient, but the entrance is in a shopping area that closes after 9 or so and you have to take a back entrance if you come back late.
Bathroom facilities are also not amazing, there are no good places to put your clothes and towel while you shower and there is only one bathroom per gender.
Overall quite decent, especially for the price. Would stay again!"

"It was clean: the bedrooms, the bathrooms, the living area (after entry, shoes off, of course). The staff was helpful & friendly. (There was a computer to use.) The place was light & bright: lots of windows. I enjoyed sitting in the living area and watching the city below. I found a street nearby with lots of vegetarian eateries. The place was easy to find, with that video on the "red tower"."

"Super friendly staffd hotel. The location is excellent with a subway stop in the same area. One stop with take you to Taipei station where you can connect to lots of locations. A small night market and a great temple are nearby."
"We previously stayed in the other sister company, Papa Whale, but enjoyed our stay in Midtown Richardson even more. It was located even closer to the MRT station and included everything we needed. "
"Very classy and elegant hotel, where I had a nice and large room, with good facilities. Breakfast selection was unusual (to a Westerner), but wide choice and perfectly nice. I had some free coffee vouchers for the ground floor coffee shop, which did the most amazing rose lattes. The surrounding area was very safe (as is all of Taipei) and the main station is only a few yards away. Great place to stay if you are visting for the first time."
