Outstanding value for money.
Excellent value for money. Quiet neighbourhood on the opposite side of the city to most tourist spots, however it was located within a 10 minute walk of two subway stations. Some good local restaurants and a convenient (and cheap) 24 hour supermarket within a 5 minute. walk

Horrible Room Condition
Room 307 was very run down.
Wall paper peeling, wall paint faded, cables and TV decoder hanging on the mirror and slept with a dead mosquito. Dressing table had sticky stain on dressing table guess left by previous customer and chambermaid did not clean it.
Internet speed was very slow, it took 2 hours to upload all pictures and video taken during the day to my Google Drive. The next hotel which I stayed took only 20 mins, same amount of pictures and video files.
Felt deceived by the pictures shown on Hotel.com. Not expecting that big room size, but the room condition should be so the same standard. See pictures I've taken and you think about it.
Reception is polite and friendly, just a typical KaoHisung people.

One of the worst hotels Ive ever stayed, not worth at all paying for year end price. Upon arrival, we'd the experience of hearing staffs/owners arguing amongst each other. Hotel staffs are lousy, cant speak basic english at all, no basic facility like iron as well. Distance not good, distance away from the main spots.
As for the room outlook, it is very old and need a refurbishment urgently. The only good thing bout this hotel is that the water current is strong.
Just dont be deceived with the photos here, this hotel definitely must to be removed from all booking sites

Property was pretty nice. Room was small but adequate, shower was hot. Price was right. Everything I needed. Could have used an electrical plug converter for my laptop though. Metro is a 5 - 10 minute walk just south of here along with a Starbucks.

Great For Budget Travellers
The hotel staff were friendly through the stay. However the rooms were a little small and the interior could use a makeover.

The worst hotel I have stayed in very dirty staff
We check in dropped off cases then went for something to eat when we got back we saw the state of the room it was very dirty I took photo. We were due to stay 3 nights but it was that bad we checked out the following day. We complained to Expedia who we booked through. When asking staff on reception anything they just laughed and were very unhelpful and rude will not recommend this place to anyone it not fit to put a dog in

Good hotel in a good location
Good location. Plenty of eating outlets and a big shopping centre nearby. Between two metro stations (about 8 mins walk). Safe area. Near LiuHe night market - not recommended to visit, better go RuiFeng night market by train. Room is clean - compact and enough space. Cable TV reasonable choice. Good WiFi in room. Kettle available but can top up drinking walk at the water cooler. Friendly reception and give good advice on city tour.

Inexpensive and practical
The hotel is quite old but really inexpensive and offers all the basics including a simple buffet breakfast. The business room is small but OK for a short stay. There is a desk but no chair... Located near two metro stations (Xinyi Elementary School and Culture Center), 10 - 15mn by foot. By taxi it's about TWD100 from TRA Kaohsiung Station, but if it's not hot and one is not burdened with too much luggage, a leisurely walk of about half an hour along a river also leads to the hotel.
