Despite its size, Philips flat has a lot of amenities. Netflix, stove top, microwave, kettle, washer/dryer combo, and a shower that never failed to be hot. As of September, the flat has a brand new air-con unit (the previous unit failed during my stay, and Philip immediately got it replaced and offered to put me in another apartment while it was being replaced!). Also included are many little things such as bathroom supplies, washing fluids, tea/coffee etc. The building has elevator access and security during the daytime (outside work hours the building has a lockable front door). The room is on the 5th floor, and noise was never an issue. Just be aware that this flat has single-occupants in mind (the bed is a single mattress). On my arrival the flat itself was perfectly clean and tidy. The Internet provided was very reliable and served its purpose. There's also backup Internet that the Netflix uses, and it had no problem streaming shows in the evening.
The location is perhaps the best part of this place. You can reach a 7-Eleven in 30 seconds (there's one just around the corner), and walk to Taipower Station in 5-10 minutes (giving you access to pretty much anywhere in Taipei). Along the way you'll pass another 7-Eleven, a Family Mart, a Wellcome supermarket and a Watsons pharmacy, plus the usual street foods. Across the main road, as other reviews have mentioned, there's a Starbucks and a Pizza Hut nearby.
Philips is a great host, and took his role seriously. Always polite and friendly, he clearly cared about providing a great service. Any problems he was quick to respond, and would even warn me out if a Taiwanese public holiday might affect my plans. I would stay at Philips place again, and recommend it to other travelers.
