Location is GREAT. 3-minute walk to Zhongxiao Dunhua MRT, which is the same line as Taipei Main Station/Airport Express and Ximending, as well as other transfer lines. It’s also close to the bus that will take you to Jiufen. Plenty of convenience stores, cafes/milk tea shops, and establishments in the area, but the apartment itself is tucked in an alley so it doesn’t get noisy at night. Hosts were very accommodating! Molly personally met up with us outside the apartment and gave us step-by-step instructions on how to get there so we could drop off our luggage at noon even though check-in wasn’t until 4PM. They also offer airport pick-up or meet-ups. Hosts were very responsive when we had questions during our stay.
The apartment itself seems quite old (you can’t flush toilet paper, just throw it in the wastebasket) but very clean. Space is very comfortable for 2 people on a short stay. We did get a cockroach in our 2nd night, probably because it rained a lot that day, but no bugs after that. Amenities are all there, wifi was fast, everything was functional. If you like walking, Chia Te Bakery is not too far by foot. :)
