Great location

The location is really great. The express buses downstairs can take you to Taichung Train Station in less than 10mn, to Calligraphy Greenway and Natural Science Museum in 10 mn, and to the new CBD in 20mn. Within walking distance, one can discover the pretty Liuchuan river, Chunghwa Road night market, the 2nd Market, the 5th Market, and the quaint Taichung Literature Park with lots of Japanes-style houses and a beautiful cafe. Simple buffet breakfast. Even though my room had no view this time, it was spacious, had everything a traveller needs, and the decor was fun.

Clean room but old facilities

The room I booked is a family room. The air-con seems cannot adjust the temperature, it's too cool for us. The facilities looking old. Yellowish stains could be found on pillow cover. It's time for them to change>.<...Overall, cleanliness is ok. Breakfast is nice. Bus station just in front of the hotel, it is convenient to take bus, the location is good. It is good that there is water re-filler inside the room so that you don't need to boil the water when you need hot water. It is just nice for those who need a clean place to stay if you don't mind some of the facilities are old.

Value for money

What I like about this hotel is that - value for money - location quite central, there are plenty of buses just in front of the hotel to get you around (very convenient to get around Taichung) - friendly staffs - breakfast included - room is spacious and sound proof However, I don't think there is a room service as I didn't get mine.

Small clean room with a little bath drain problem

Rooms small, clean but staffs are very friendly, location OK. Breakfast mostly Chinese style which fits us great. A little complaint about drain system that seemed to spill water out to bathroom floor, not much though. At the price we paid I personally have no problem with however I don't think it is a 4-star hotel, 2.5-3 star but worth the money.

Would recommend

It's a nice hotel in a good location in Taichung; I can't think of anything I disliked about it. I liked that there's a 7-Eleven around the corner, a cold/hot water dispenser inside the room, and a selection of pretty recent movies in the TV - perfect for a lazy night in. Some pretty good restaurants are just a couple minutes away, too, and the hotel's within a reasonable walking distance to the bus stops for the Sun Moon Lake and 921 Earthquake Museum-bound buses. Taking a cab to Fengjia Night Market from here cost us just TWD$215 (S$10). The breakfast buffet was not bad.
