I really enjoyed staying in Philips’ place, as I lived 2 years in the same building years ago, I definitely felt like home and Philips made it even more convenient. Definitely a place to chose if you’re heading to Taipei. The neighborhood is quieter than it use to be (though you wouldn’t hear anything from the 5th floor anyway) and extremely convenient for shopping (night market, 24h supermarket, 7/11 just downstairs) and food (lot of restaurants around) and the appartement is like 5 minutes away from the MRT. Great host, great place, great area. Don’t look anywhere else, this is the place you should pick up ;)
