Although a Very dated hotel it was a suitable budget hotel for my stay. The best feature of this hotel is it's location. It is a 5 mins walk from Kaohsiung main train station and shops so it made going places very easy. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
The aspect at I did not like was the noise from the fridge at night. Quite a few times the humming noise woke me up but I had a short stay I did not report it. I would do if I stayed again. The other aspect is there is no netting on the window to allow you to let fresh air in without having other insects or birds come into the room.
I would stay again if I need a cheap budget hotel.
I stay repeatedly as this friendly and simple hotel on the canal and near the train station. It is clean and has all of the basic amenities. There are good breakfast places nearby.
The facilities are old, but not too bad. There are food stalls nearby, and it's conveniently located near the station and the night market. I'll use it again.
The room was spacious and the beds were comfortable. The location is close to the city and can easily reach other public transport places.
The only thing I didn't like were the fact there were no shower curtains in the bathroom, so when showering, water got everywhere.

Friendly staff, clean but a bit out of date. A bit noisy From the traffic. But the price and location are good. I will choose it again for Kaohsiung.
So much was great about the staff and facilities. Initially I wasn't given the room I paid for was the bathtub. When I brought it to the attention of the hotel they changed me hours later and it was amazing! I will stay there again and recommend it to everybody.
1. very close to the railway station, only 5-8 mins walk from railway station
2. nice and friendly staff
3. small but tidy room
4. sometimes you can hear the sound of the rooms next to you
5. did not have daily cleaning service, you have to ask the front desk to refill the utilities like toilet paper

They were smoking in all the rooms, the management said cannot be controlled. I got very sick from second hand smoke! The room was old fashioned but comfortable and homey like visiting grandma.
