So much value for money”

I always look for cheap but good hotels whenever I travel. This one ticks all the boxes! Big room, check! Comfy bed, check! Personal grooming stuff, check! Affordable, check! Good free breakfast, check! Friendly staff, check! Many others say breakfast is great. I'd say it's just above average. It's nice that it's buffet style so you can get as much as you want, but there really isn't a lot of choices. But for the price I paid, I think it's too much to ask for more.

Room is clean and comfortable. Breakfast offer has variety of choices and taste very good. The only minor downside is that the check-in time is a bit too late (5.30pm) which I have totally overlooked when I booked the room. :( Reached about 4 pm plus but have to wait for another 1 hour plus to get my room ready. Luckily all the staff are very helpful, they are trying to get the room ready earliest as they can. :)

Because there are no mrts in taichung unlike taipei it depends on where u intend to go. Walking distance 8-10mins to the gancheng station where you can take the buses to sunmoon lake. Could walk to 2nd market and some of the other attractions if you are willing to take a stroll. Clean facilities and room space is big enough for a large luggage if you have one.
