I don't generally like to give negative review, but I thought that it would be good for other potential customers to really know the condition of this hotel. Also, my review is based on my own experience, as well as my previous experience with other hotels. Others may experience better or they are OK with the condition, so please do judge accordingly.
I am a 56 year old male, and I generally stay in 4-5 star hotels for generally short stay. But since I will need to stay for 17 nights, I booked this hotel for the low cost, and generally OK review.
the good:
1. nice personnel. they were accommodating, as I changed room 3 times.
2. the kitchen staff were quite nice, as she noticed that I was growing tire of the same breakfast, she made egg just for me
3. very close to Tainan train station, a short 1-2min walk
4. the room they gave me was very spacious
the not so good:
1. very old, you will be staying in a very old building
2. the smell, as you enter the elevator, you will noticed a sewage smell. the 2nd room I changed to, became unbearable to stay
3. mice, you will noticed that there are mice in this building. Don't keep any food in the open. I had an unopened snack, and it was broken and eaten the next morning. I also heard all kinds of noise at night
4. still using key to enter. the towels are just cloth. not towels. not too many outlets.
Hope this gives you a good picture of this hotel. Don't know why this is rated 3-star. Should be 2-star at best.
