The hotel offers clean and sufficiently roomy rooms, though they might feel more suitable for single guests or at a discounted rate. The decor is basic and the room can be a bit dark, considering it's rated 4-star.

The hotel's location inside Ximending is visually appealing with its quirky nautical x vintage theme. It's great for photo opportunities but may lack functionality. The proximity to Taipei Main Station makes accessing other areas convenient.

The dining experience was good, but with limited options as it mainly focused on hotpot. The hotpot buffet within the room rate can be overwhelming in the morning, and more breakfast choices would be appreciated.

I had a unique dining experience with hot pot soup using seaweed broth and various ingredients. It might not be for everyone, but it was an adventure for me.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms in the basement were surprisingly spacious, well-lit, and very comfortable. Everything was nice and clean with all the amenities you could need, making it a cozy place to relax. The service was top-notch, with polite staff who were always ready to assist and resolve any issues. The location was ideal, within walking distance of Taipei Station and Ximending MRT, making it convenient to explore the city. The dining experience was fun at the Asian-style hot pot restaurant, though it might not suit everyone's taste. Overall, a great value for money.

Upon my stay, I found the hotel to be quite a mixed bag. The rooms were more cramped than I had hoped for, with a slight chlorine smell in the uncleaned bathroom. However, the service was top-notch, albeit a minor hiccup with my friend being scolded for a breakfast card. The location was decent, though a bit of a trek with heavy luggage, but the proximity to Ximending was a plus. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with a so-so hotpot buffet but an excellent taste. Overall, it had its flaws but managed to exceed my expectations in certain areas.

The hotel has a retro and vintage charm with some dusty areas under the basement. The rooms, although a bit small and shabby in places, are surprisingly quirky. The service was a mix of accommodating and condescending attitudes. The location is comfortable but a bit far from MRT stations for elderly guests. The dining options could use more variety, especially for non-hotpot choices.

The hotel is located in the heart of Ximending, making it super convenient to explore the area. The rooms are stylish but lack natural light, which didn't bother me much. Despite the design emphasis, they are clean and well maintained. The service is prompt when you need extra amenities like shampoo or shower gels, but it can be a bit chaotic due to the crowded nature of the hotel. The location is superb for accessing Ximending's vibrant atmosphere and only a short walk from the MRT stations. However, the thin walls can lead to some noise disturbances. The dining options are focused on hotpot meals, which may not be everyone's favorite for breakfast. The facilities are decent, with vintage touches throughout the hotel.
