Lovely hotel. Modern. Good staff. Breakfast good from cafe next door. Short walk to main station. Only downside is location as it is in the red light area. The property on opposite corner is a brothel, not just a karaoke restaurant as we found out!
The hotel is conveniently located in center district, closed to railway station, bus stop to sun moon lake, Taichung park and 7-11 store. Staff are nice and friendly, room is clean and quiet at night, bed is comfortable. Free battle water in room, and free coffee in lounge. Breakfast must be ordered at front desk for next day delivered by other vender. There are some girls hunting their costumers during day time, some restaurants do not serve food, but alcohol and karaoke at night.
Dodgy area - Only book if you need something cheap. The location of the hotel is right next to the casino/gambling dens, and there are prostitutes in the area. That said, we didn't feel threatened at all, but there are many nicer areas around the city. It gave us a terrible first impression, but luckily, we got to see the other side of Taichung and the city's charm. The room was okay, spacious, but not very well cleaned, and the hotel felt overall a little run-down. We got a window room, and the window was right outside all the ventilation units and exhausts, so there was nothing to see.

Sound insulation between rooms is not very good. Can hear noise from next room.
One morning we arrived at the restaurant by 7: 02 a.m. but the restaurant door was locked. Then we asked the hotel front desk staff why the restaurant door was locked. We were told that the restaurant staff might go out for a while and asked us to wait for a while. We told the staff that we wanted to take away the breakfast because we had to catch 7:30 am train. So we waited until 7:07 a.m. but the restaurant staff still did not show up. Therefore, we left the hotel immediately without packed breakfast. We were quite dissatisfied.
Location is not safe. Staffs are not professional. Never greet guests when you are coming in or going out. In fact, not even look at people. Most the time they were sititng there when talking to guest. One time, I saw the staff standing in front of the hotel smoking and there is no one at the counter. After we get into the lobby, we came back inside. Casino across the street. We saw street girls standing across the other side of the street everyday day & night time both. Near area are full of casino, special service facilities. Not fit for family. Guestrooms plumbing have big issue. The first room we got the toilet overflow in the afternoon we check-in. The second room we got the toilet also having issue. We have to flush twice evertime we use the toilet. Website claimed have laundry service. The fact is they do not have self-service laundry room. You will need to take your laundry to a 24 hrs laundry store to clean your laundry and the laundry store is very expensive. It is very difficult to walk from hotel to another place due to the fact the sidewalk is always full of motorcycle. Like the laundry, Breakfast is not available.
