The place is very cozy. You can chill outside the terrace or you can just sit inside in any of its comfortable couch. Its supplies are complete from slippers up to toiletries as well as a morning brewed coffee or a 3 in 1 easy to mix coffee. And more importantly the capsule like bed that is super comfy together with the fluffy pillow and soft blanket. You can surely make a sound sleep. I will surely recommend this place.😀
Hotel allowed me to check in early. on top of that they gave me a free upgrade the room is very very clean and the mattress is thick. I am very happy and it's very near ximending area. google map is accurate if you type the hotel name. cute design too.
The price is affordable with the clean and comfy room for you to sleep. The location is really great for the traveler because it is near to the station of Ximen as you know Ximen is the popular city in Taipei for shopping and snacking :)
Booked for 3 days and 3 nights. Excellent accommodation for a budget travel. They can allow you to check in earlier than schedule for a minimal rate and extend as well. Ideal because it's in walking distance to MRT Ximen Station and Taipei main station. Plus, It's in walking distance to the Ximending Youth District Center. You can enjoy shopping and street foods. The owners are very kind and accommodating.
It is a hidden hotel inside an old apartment. No sign to point out the hotel location so it took us quite long time to find the place. The hotel is 650-700 m from Ximending station, not very close. The staff are OK but not so good at English. Hotel room is very old and given a quite scary vibe from some strange decorations. The lifts are super old (even the buttons are hard to press) good points are the hotel room is very clean, especially the bathroom. Hotel facility is fully equipped. They also let us borrow umbrellas.
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.
A great place to stay! It is a short walking distance from Ximen subway station and about 10-15 walk from Beimen/Taipei Main station as well. The double room is spacious enough with a shelf and a table to keep your stuff. The shared bathrooms are rather clean and well-equipped.
The cleanliness of this hotel is good, convenience for the guest, the air conditioner is perfect, the location of the hotel is near the good spot in Ximen. Nice.
