The stay at Sandy and Ann's place had been a really comfortable and cosy one.
Starting a week before checking in, both Ann and Sandy would text us the weather forecasts and little reminders about what to expect of the weather. When my partner and I arrived at Ximending way too early ahead of the check-in time, Sandy took a short leave from work to help us check the luggages into another room so that we could walk around without burden. We felt really thankful towards her for that!
The room is clean, and has all the necessities needed for a comfortable stay. It actually looks and feels better than it appears in the photos! The location is ideal, as it is about 3 minutes away from Ximending (2 minutes away from the train station, Ximen) as well as located near a lot of other delicious eateries and banks.
My partner and I actually didn't have much problems with the mosquitoes until the last night (it was pretty minimal). We decided to set up the mosquito netting as suggested by Sandy, and it actually felt rather romantic!
I would definitely recommend this place for those who want a worry-less, hassle-free and comfortable stay while in Ximending (:
