Stayed here for 3 nights, the first two nights, we had a room on the 10th floor, the room was old, had black mold on the bathroom. The AC did not work, a pretty bad experience. The last night, I had a separate booking on the 9th floor, the experience was much better, working AC, cleaner bathroom, the room actually had a window and balcony. The AC worked as well. If you booking here, get the 9th floor, pay a little extra.

Location of the hotel is great, situated in the middle of Ximending, allowing shopping to be very convenient. Not too far away from Ximen Station as well. Facilities are very normal, but unfortunately assigned room does not have window. Hair dryer might require some upgrading. Overall the stay was worth it considering price and location! : )

Many mosquitoes inside the lifts when we are up & down to this building, facilities are old enough to re-renovate, these 2 areas need to improve. Location is good, below many convenient shops, foods stall surrounding, subway Ximen station not far away.

The place is conveniently located at ximen ting, great house keeping daily for the price. We got a free upgrade to family room and the room was spacious. However, walls are very very thin,can hear the conversation/showering next door clearly in the middle of the night. The lifts were faulty on the last day of stay that led to us walking down 3 stories before being able to take the lift.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
The property is located on the 9th and 10th floors of a old building (rest of the floors are long-stay tenants/other businesses). There are 2 elevators but sometimes they are used by the cleaners to transport garage so they stink badly. Check-in at the counter on the 9th floor, and we had rooms on the 10th. Room was large size and had toiletries, mini fridge, cable TV, decent wifi, bottled water, tea/coffee. Air-conditioning was miserable and non-existent, opening the single window caused mosquitoes to enter. Shower was hot and water pressure good but pipes were super noisy so i didn't have a good rest. Housekeeping did a great job with the lousy hardware though. Beds were terribly soft. Location was decent, about 350m from Ximending MRT.

場所は西門駅から5分程度と近く、毎日非常に賑やかで活気のあり、お店も多種多様で楽しめる場所でした。難を言えば、ホテルは9階なのだけどストリートから聞こえるボーカルのスピーカーの音声がずっと聞こえたこと、また、近くの部屋の数人の宿泊客の話し声や笑い声がうるさく、疲れていなければ寝られないと思いました。
