Pre arrival:
Brad provided so much information to prepare us for our arrival and helped us to make the necessary bookings for a private car w/driver to take us around the destinations we wanted to see. He also accommodated us at an earlier time than his posted check in time
Upon arrival
He met us personally on the street corner where his accommodation was. He gave us a short tour of the immediate area then upon taking us to his apartment, showed us around his apartment and the different amenities and how to operate the appliances. He then gave us a short orientation on other notable places that were within walking distance (restos, tourist spots, groceries, mrt stations etc) and even saved them on my phone so that we wouldnt forget.
Ongoing
Brad was checking on us (via messenger) daily and was ready to help if we needed something
Checkout
Smooth, and Brad was able to allow us to leave our things until the time we needed to leave (we had an evening flight)
Location
It’s quite central, within walking distance to Ximending, Taipei main station, several really good eating places and some tourist spots including a few historical landmarks. Getting around is easy with two mrt stations close by and also a bus station nearby. Taxis were also easy to get from the foot of his apartment building.
The Accommodation
Apartment is small but well spaced. Dont expect to have meals at home since it doesn’t come with a dining table and chairs but if you’re just gonna have finger foods or snacks and drinks while lounging around the tv then you’ll be fine.
Internet speed was ok and everything was clean and working well.
Trash can was a little small but Brad was ready to pick up trash once it was full.
Overall this was the best AirBNB i’ve stayed at and am looking forward to booking again.
