Was in communication with Reder all the while. The minsu is similar to the picture on website. My family love the big room with beds 3 guests as it is very spacious and well maintained. After putting down our 3 large luggage, there is still space for our toddler to run about. I have stayed at quite a few minsu before, but Reder is the only host that actually take the trouble to ensure we are well provided during our stay especially for our elderly mother and toddler. He is very professional, responsive and informative. Before our trip, he has provided a lot of updated photos, map, video on places of attraction, how to go about taking MRT to different places, recommended food and even offered to reserve restaurant if we need. I recalled we had slight issue with our stay, he even google and provided us solutions.
The location is very convenient as is closed to many eateries and there is a 24hr Mcdonald just 5 mins walk from the building. Taipei Main Station MRT station underground shopping mall is less than 5 mins walk from the building. The new Taipei MRT station leading to Taoyuan International Airport is just across the road of the building.
Will definitely recommend SMILE House to my friends as the host is great and the location is super convenient. My family has enjoyed our stay at SMILE House.
