The pillow is too thin, but over all is good. But no mineral water refill, so you have to buy in the convinience store nearby the hotel.

I have mixed feelings during my stayed, the hotel location was great and easy access to Ximending. Regarding the room, it was clean however my room got the stinky smell from the toilet drain hole thus it wasn’t a pleasure experience to me, I don’t feel wanna stay even longer inside my room… Regarding the room size, it’s fine and just enough for solo traveller, if you have have more than 2 luggage, the room will be very packed. And the Wi-Fi in my room was very poor, I have to use my cellular data most of the time.

Location is the best! Just a few steps to ximending walking district. Many restaurant, shops and convenient store that open until late at night. The room is okay, not too big but not to small. You get what you pay for. It's a nice place just for sleep only, otherwise you'll get cramp and claustrophobic cause theres no window in the room 😂 But I would still recommend this hotel to everyone because of the perfect location and pricewise.

Stayed 6nights at Hotel Papa Whale has a good experience: Self Check-In, easy and fast, the staff helpful and friendly also. The unit is very clean and nice design, plus comfortable. From hotel to XiMenDing station walk around 8 minutes not too far.

Great location. Wifi was terrible 🥲.

The hotel's light was pretty dark and worked kind of weird for me. However, the price was really good so I won't expect much.

I like it. It's clean and the room is modern. The only downside is that there is no window.

The location is good, but you have to walk a bit if you want to go to the MRT, but it's not too far. The room is clean. There's a housekeeper who comes to clean the room every day. She's attentive, judging from the arrangement of things. The water in the bathroom is very strong. I like it. We stay in the basement. The room isn't soundproof and the school's wifi isn't there, but the bed is comfortable. Overall, it's considered okay.

Pros: good location, safe & quiet room, high quality pillow and bed. Cons: weak wifi connection, towels are smelly with Clo.

Close to Ximending shopping district and Ximending station.

The room is a bit narrow, there is no wardrobe, and it is not very soundproof. The water pressure in the bathroom is very strong, making it comfortable to shower.

Harga murah lokasi ok dekat cimending. Tidak terlalu suka toilet nya karena lantai warna hitam. Lantai kamar berasa basah.

Good location near Ximen Shopping Street. Not too far from MRT station. Breakfast was OK but not so many choices. Friendly staff.

Really enjoyed my first stay, but this second time was disappointing, even though I pay tiger price than the first one. The room at the basement have toilet problems, really uncomfortable, the TV remote not working so can't change the channels, the char is made of metals, it's esthetic but really uncomfortable! And super cold in the winter. I'm really disappointed this time. Thought will get good experience like the first one

Located in a good location You can walk to Ximending in 5 minutes. The interior is beautiful. But the direction of walking to find a room is quite confusing. Room amenities are good. The air conditioning could not be adjusted on the first night. It was so cold that I had to ask for an extra blanket. The night after notifying the staff to come and fix it, the temperature was adjusted normally. Most of the counter staff can't speak English, so they have to use Google translate. Overall, I'm impressed.

Overall, the accommodation is okay, clean, beautiful, comfortable, but maybe a little far from the night market.

The room is clean, the water flows strong, the housekeeper comes to clean every day. The room is quite narrow, the air does not flow. But not to the point of being very uncomfortable. There are many restaurants around the school. Quite far from the BTS station.

The room has a lot of dust and the staff is not friendly.

Upon checking in the staff said that our booking was for 4 hotel rooms, they won't believe me even if I already showed the hotel voucher that we only booked 3 rooms. They warned me that I'll have to pay extra if I won't contact online agent about this. But I stood firm that I only booked 3 as stated in the hotel voucher, that I don't have any explaining to do because the voucher was already issued and it clearly states and enumerates only 3 rooms. The receptionist were laughing at me and talking in Taiwanese and just said with a sigh that “okay 3 room it is”, as if I owe it to them. I really felt insulted when its them who can't even properly communicate in English. Also we got to check in past 4 pm, the check in time was at exactly 3pm-we requested if we could check in early but they said no. We were so tired from the trip, but when its finally 3pm (when we tried to check in), the self check in monitor stated that our rooms are not yet ready, its not just us but a lot of guest were also furious. Regardless of the hassle we went through my honest review for the hotel itself is this: Location- good, but if you want to be closer to stations and bus stop, I would suggest to book inside ximending itself, there's a lot of hotel there. I would not recommend staying here in summer because you'll have to walk a lot to/from the stations and bus stops, it very hot during summer in Taiwan. But there 's a lot of convenience store around the area. Interior-the hotel is very instagrammable, if you like taking photos, you would probably like this one. For the rooms, its a normal size room quite dark since we are at the basement floor but its decent. Housekeeping-we were taken aback when we got back to our hotel room and it was cleaned, we did not put up a housekeeping sign. Its okay but we weren't able to secure our things first because we weren't really expecting someone to clean the room. Service-aside from the checking in, the service was OK. However, they don't speak a lot of English and sometimes it gives a vibe that they don't want to talk to you. Breakfast-it was okay for the first day, but I recommend to get only breakfast for day 1. The menu is the same everyday and the only thing that I enjoy most is the coffee machine. I suggest to book breakfast only for day 1 and try having breakfast outside the hotel. Also, if you're a family you should go to the breakfast hall together, otherwise they would assign seats separately. Check out-its self check out and very hassle free. You just need to drop off the keycard then you can go.
