Pros: The apartment is pretty spacious, it was clean on arrival. It’s not centrally located necessarily but it’s very close to a metro station and bus stops so it is very accessible. Check in was simple and the host was very responsive to messages.
Cons: I had to buy several basic items just to be able to fix the most simple meals. The apartment had only three small plates, one spoon, one fork, a few pairs of chopsticks, a few mugs, and a few pans. No knife, no cutting board, no bowls, etc.
I also had to buy a brita filter because Taiwan’s tap water is unsafe and I didn’t want to continuously buy bottled during my stay.
Some parts of the apartment are quite compact, if you are relatively tall you will be crouching quite a bit. That said, the ceiling in the loft was higher than I expected it to be.
Lastly, the apartment is right off of a very busy road. I slept with tbh earplugs in and could still hear the scooters zooming by at all hours of the night. If you are a light sleeper you won’t be getting good sleep.
Overall I would stay here again, but I feel like a little more attention to detail would make it a more enjoyable stay.
