My mother and I stayed at Cottonwood while visiting relatives over Chinese New Year. The location is really great and the address literally place you at the center of one of Taipei's best food streets. The self-check-in is simple and easy and it helps that there is an elevator. The host, Lee, is extremely responsive, always answering texts withing minutes no matter what time of the day. Initially we had some problems with not having hot water in the room for a few days, however after notifying him the issues were resolved. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who would like to visit Taipei.
