“The Basement” a perfect ultra-cool Da'an District hideaway, in my opinion. Completely secure private & peaceful. Da'an a really down to earth cool little district, the Green side of town. Easy access to Taipei Zoo and Maekong Gondola from your local MRT Technology building station. Da’an Forrest park is gorgeous and a short walk away. I met many young dynamic interesting decent & respectful locals.
I wish to contest the few negative reviews. The Spider thing, I saw 2 of the smallest little spiders that are common place everywhere, who are these people that don't even have the coping mechanism to deal with a small spider? they are a joke to the travelling community. The humidity, is everywhere in Taiwan even when it was relatively cool the humidity endured. Inside you have fully functioning Daikon aircon - heat and de-humidify. This is excellent to change the room temp dynamic in an instant, I personally found the Air ducts were supplying sufficient constant fresh air & rarely used it.
The Projection TV, excellent - pair your device login to you streaming service and you’re watching your shows in a personal cinema, nice touch.
There is the basics for kitchen if you want to do a few things yourself. NOTE: my experience buying groceries from the supermarket in Taiwan was that’s its far more expensive than back home!
EAT from a HUGE VARIETY of MANY food outlets ITS ULTRA CHEAP. Switch your mindset to - collect food from your favourite outlets around the neighbourhoods during the days to stock up the fridge for night time eating.
I just loved returning to this space to sleep relax & watch Netflix. Thanks “Hank” Leo & Ruby
It was an unforgettable December in Da’an Taipei
