The apartment was just fabulous. Nathan was extremely helpful. It is in a great location, getting around couldn’t be easier. Shilin station 2 mins walk, signage was in several languages, including English. You buy a token in the machines, price is clearly displayed based on what station you are exiting. Uber’s are also a great way if preferred. Both are very reasonably priced.
Special to us was the food, such as the Shilin night market downstairs, local Taiwanese restaurants and street food. The nearby Confucius temple and surroundings is a wonderful experience. If you like hiking, there are many places to go. Decorate a lantern and see it fly off, we understand that these are routinely collected, which is good to know, as they didnt seem that environmentally friendly on the face of it. Finally the most beautiful part is the people, they are so courteous, kind and always smiling. Overall it was a brilliant experience.
