This is the second time my family stayed here and it was just as great as the first time. You can’t beat the location being on YongKang Street with plenty of dining options to choose from and less than 5 minutes from the Dongmen MRT station. The apartment is clean and has everything you need including a small kitchenette and washer/dryer combo that was really handy for us. Communication with the host was great as they were very quick in their response to our questions and checked in on us regularly to make sure everything was good.
A couple of tips for food other than the main restaurants. There’s a meat bun cart on YongKang Street where it is freshly steamed every morning that we visited frequently for breakfast. The old Dongmen market is 5-10 minutes walking that has a lot of traditional Taiwanese food as well. There is also a good foot massage place off of Lane 2, YongKang Street and you could see the giant foot sign for it.
I would highly recommend staying here while visiting Taipei.
