Fantastic place! I stayed here for four months in fall 2022 and it was a great experience. The room gets great light (a rarity in Taipei), it is fully stocked with everything you need, and it is in the perfect location!! So close to FOOD (essentially inside Shida night market) buses/MRT station, parks, cafes, convenience stores etc. Easy to get to nightlife and activities all over the city. Not too much street noise. Building and elevator uses a key fob for secure entry. The neighborhood is also fantastic to walk around.
Philips is also a really proactive and responsive host. He checked in with me to see how everything was going and helped me buy essentials (cleaning supplies etc.). He was so quick to answer all my questions. Though the room isn’t super big, I thought it was a perfectly good size for one person and I was quite comfortable living there long term :)
