My family and I had a memorable stay at Taipei Journey’s Airbnb. Our ride from the airport did not have a hard time finding the place. Outside the building are a marketplace and food stalls which smell of the freshest produce and good hearty meals. There are 2 elevators in the building, and both are clean and working. We stayed at the 6th floor. The self check-in was quick and painless. The key was kept in a locker box by the door. The code to the locker box was sent to us by the host a few days before our arrival date.
I traveled with my mom, 3 sisters and a niece; we were a total of 6 pax. The room which was listed as good for 5-6 on Airbnb was a bit crowded for all of us since we had huge suitcases for our 6-day stay.
In the room are 2 beds and a couch that converts to a daybed for my youngest sister and niece. The room was neat and clean, the bathroom spotless. The design was modern and chic. The help, Azi, was also very friendly and accommodating. She does not speak English but she always smiled at us when we ran into her in the hallway.
The Airbnb is in Zhongshan District which is very accessible to the sites in Taipei. Just across the building is Showtime Cinemas and other shops like Starbucks, Uniqlo, Mango, Toys R Us, and TenRen’s Tea (our favorite milktea place!), to name a few. The Airbnb is 8 minutes away from the MRT Station. We visited Taipei on the second week of December so the weather was cool and light, and it made our walks enjoyable.
After a long day of shopping and walking around the city, we would unwind at Linsen Park and Kangle Park which were a 5-minute walk from the Airbnb. We traveled with an 8-year-old and she had a magical time running and playing in the park.
Overall, I would say Taipei Journey’s place is one of the best I have booked in Airbnb. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
