This is a special home in an easy-to-reach location. The design and construction is totally unique, with many thoughtful and intentional touches. The home is located next to the Shilin MRT station, which gives it immediate access to the rest of Taipei. There are multiple restaurants, grocery stores and parks within a 5 minute walk. We enjoyed it and would recommend to friends and family. Communication with the owners was very good, and they responded to questions / comments right away.
Our only comment for parents with young children is that there are many stairs and glass walls (and floors!). We stayed with a 4-year old and a 2-year old, and while our 4-year old had no problem navigating the stairs and the glass walls / floors, our 2-year old bumped her head a few times on glass walls and was a little unstable on the stairs, so it may be best suited for kids 4-years old and up. That said, there was a lot of Lego and books, so the children were entertained and happy.
