Diven's place truly made my trip to Taipei as wonderful as it could possibly be. I stayed at the Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong, a 5 star hotel, right after my trip to Taiwan, and I can honestly say that my experience at Diven's was just as good in terms of service from the host and overall quality of accommodations.
When traveling abroad with parents, sibling, and my significant other for the first time together, finding the right accommodation for everyone can be very stressful and challenging. I felt lucky I was able to book Diven's place for the entire length of my stay but I was skeptical of the photos and the description of the place before I could see it in person.
Leading up to my stay, Diven was pretty good about responding to my questions. However, it wasn't until my mom was able to chat with him via phone that we really felt assured that this listing was not a hoax and that we will indeed have a nice place to stay.
Upon arriving, I was blown away by the spaciousness of Diven's place and how immaculate it was. I felt I could eat off the floors! The photos are very representative of the space, furniture, and layout but I'd say being there in person felt even better. Diven had prepared freshly cut fruit for all of us and we spent the first hour upon arriving eating the delicious fruit while marveling at his accommodation.
My parents and I loved returning to Diven's place at the end of each night to rest up from our agenda-packed days. We were centrally located which meant it was easy heading out and coming back throughout our trip. We also really loved being able to all stay at one place while still having enough space from each other to relax.
I cannot thank Diven enough for being a wonderful host. I don't travel with my entire family very often anymore so it was important to me that we all have a good time. Luckily, we did and Diven's place really contributed to our memorable time in Taipei. Thank you Diven!
