I stayed with a couple of friends at Meelu’s place in Xinbeitou for a week. The location is ideal, it is only a short walk from the Xinbeitou MRT station. It is also close to many restaurants and cafes and there is a 711 within about 2 minutes. The hot tub in the apartment is amazing. It takes a while to fill and then to cool but is completely worth the wait and feels extremely luxurious with views from the room of the mountain. The public hot pools are within a short walk as well, we visited these several times over the week. Meelu’s place itself is full of thoughtful touches, everything is there that you might need and it is sparkling clean. The beds are comfortable with AC in each room. There is a washing machine and space to dry clothing in the apartment and a launderette downstairs if needing to dry garments faster. The kitchen has all the necessary utensils for simple food preparation, we mostly ate breakfast in the home and then other meals out. The bathroom is small but the water pressure in the shower is great. We enjoyed relaxing occasionally in the evenings with a hot tub and watching movies on Netflix. Meelu herself is a very thoughtful and responsive host. She organised an airport pick up for my friends, which was affordable and professional. She answered my many questions about things to do, where to go for meals etc around the area. Overall we had a great stay at Meelu’s place, I highly recommend it to other travellers and hope to stay there myself in the future.
