Trendy and luxurious hotel, conveniently located, within walking distance to the 美麗島 MRT Station and 六和夜市 Liuhe Night Market .
We stayed for one night there. While my husband was checking in, I waited in a lounge area in the back, leisurely flipping through some books. Complimentary coffee and tea were provided. Three sculptures-- kids playing on the back of water buffaloes--from Yu Teng-Chuan 余燈銓's childhood series lined the bookshelf area.
Service was prompt and courteous. Upon asked whether it was our first time staying at the hotel, my husband replied in the affirmative. The receptionist offered us a free upgrade to a huge, luxury room.
Wow! I was extremely impressed by the room. Spacious, chic and we even had a sofa area. The bed was very comfy. You had the option of two pillow sections. That night, I literally sank into the bed and became one with the bed. It was so comfy that I wanted to inquire whether the mattress was for sale.
My husband was impressed by the tiles in the shower. Not only did they prevent people from slipping, they had a great feel when you step on them. Maybe we should get them for our shower at home. The only drawback was that the room didn't have a nice view.
Breakfast was served on the fifteenth floor in a hip environment. Great selection of food but everything tasted sort of bland. Service was friendly in general, except when a waiter refilled my coffee and the content spoiled out into the tiny saucer...
