No luxury but clean and convenient and definitely
The hotel is clean and very conveniently located. The staff is very friendly (but does not speak English very well). One important thing: have the address of the hotel written in Chinese - the taxi driver could not read it in English and did not get it when we tried to pronounce the street name. Luckily for us the information office was open and they wrote the address in Chinese for us. I think that Expedia should include the address written in local language for any country with a non-Latin alphabet.

Back to the 70s
The hotel is about 5min by taxi from Taichung train station. The staff was welcoming but asked me if my friend had already arrived. It didn't take me long to understand that this is a love hotel and not a business hotel, or perhaps both. While the pictures on the hotel's website show only the business side of this split personality, the hotel also has Japanese style rooms like the one I've been given. It does not have a desk, and not a bed but a futon. The ceiling is low. The TV is old and only shows local channels. There are no windows. The plastic bathtub has been repainted/re-plastered but is somehow leaking water. There is no shower curtain. The room is adorned with a geisha picture. A condom is supplied, and so is a fan, a fridge and a water dispenser, all of which are of yellowed, old plastic. Breakfast consists of a sandwich and a hot drink served to the room until 10AM. There is no breakfast room. The room also has a mini Zen-garder. However, I would guess the potter plant is plastic, and it is bad fengshui to attempt a garden in the corner of the room next to the door. I also noticed the empty post of the floor supervisor, with an unfinished bottle of what seems to be a local gin. This hotel should be a museum of Taiwanese interior design of the 70s. By no means does this hotel deserve even a single-star rating.

Taiwan on a budget
I traveled through Taiwan on a budget and was happy with this hotel. Rooms were small, but just fine in my opinion. It was clean. The hotel overall is a bit old, but they have excellent service. Your choice of breakfast is brought up to you each morning and they staff spoke english well enough to help me with everything that I needed ( directions, get a cab, find the metro, things to do, etc. ). If you want a 5 star hotel with all the amenities, it's not here. But if you are looking for a good, solid place to stay that provides the basics with excellent service, I would recommend here.

I booked the hotel at 5pm and arrived at the hotel at 640pm, and the booking has already been processed to the hotel. Therefore i was able to checked in right away. The staff are very friendly too giving me very homely feeling.

Broken Bathtub
The hotel is not close to the railway station. It's really disappointing! Everything is old or even broken. After taking a shower the floor of the bathroom became wet. There was no buffet breakfast.

Fair value for price, good staff
Helpful staff do well with an ageing hotel. Basic facilities, clean, comfy, but some maintenance required, e.g. power socket hanging out of wall. Central location. If thinking of walking your suitcase from Taichung Station there are many large steps/hazards in the sidewalks- this applies to any hotel in this area. - taxi is only $100NTD (<US$4)

Location is quite a distance from the train station. You can walk, but with heavy luggage, it's better to take the public bus no. 83 or 88 (alight at bus stop before wuquan street). The hotel room looks similar like what you see in the hotel's photo. Everything is quite ok, except that there seems to be a bit of leakage in the toilet. Everytime you flush, water always seep through on the floor nearby the toilet bowl & it smells. Well, you get what you paid for.

Hotel staff very helpful. Location
Hotel staff very helpful. Location very convenient. Good place to stay in Taichung. Rooms are a little small. Some have bathroom door near room exit and its upper glass door panel provides no privacy in-case of visitors. Suggest curtain for the glass window and bathroom door to cut off light from bathroom and provide privacy.
