Wilson our host was very welcoming, he organised a taxi from the airport for us and was there to greet us on arrival. He patiently explained everything we needed to know about the flat, internet, etc and gave us lots of tips and suggestions for places to visit and how to get there. To top it off, he got us each a bubble tea drink to help us relax after the travel! He also went the extra mile of getting our laundry washed about half way through our stay, which was much appreciated.

The flat itself is clean and modern, with a decent amount of space for 4 adults. 1 double bed in the bedroom and 1 double bed + sofa bed in the living room. Not really big enough to hang around in, but definitely big enough as a home base for tourists. All the beds were comfortable. The shower has good hot water pressure although the bathroom gets very humid. The internet connection is a portable wifi hotspot which is fast enough for 4 simultaneous users which we took out with us for internet access on the road. Signal was fantastic most of the time and the battery just lasts a full day, but bring a portable charger if you can.

The location of the flat is absolutely ideal. The window view shown in the photos is actually as good as it looks and there is no end of shops and restaurants just downstairs with good food. Just across the road is the Red House which has a really nice market for unique knick knacks, perfect for souvenirs and presents. Ximen MRT station is just one more street over, literally 7 minutes away. From there, Taipei central is 1 stop away, where you can get a bus to almost any tourist destination.
