The neighbourhood is great, very convenient and huge selections of restaurants and shops. Basically it is on a very prime location hence it can be a bit noisy if you don't mind that. But that is the price you pay to be at the centre of a really bustling part of Taipei. The best part of Mark place will be the working desk/space for us, we found it really useful especially if you are on a longer term stay and need to work. Mark is friendly and very responsive too. Place is clean and quite a decent size kitchen.
