Highly recommend this wonderfully well-kept, sunny, thoughtfully designed space. True, it's technically rather small---but the floor plan and measurements shown in the listing's images are completely accurate. Great lighting options and a clever layout, including one step up to the living/sleeping area from the entry/kitchen, help the space live much larger. The comfy bathroom's actually bigger than in some studios, including an unusually roomy (for Taipei) walk-in shower, an excellent venting/dehumidification system, and some rather pleasant cove lighting. Plus, the washer/dryer being in there means you can shut the door on your whirling laundry.
Welcoming drink bottles and individually wrapped snacks were provided, in a familiar-yet-interesting mix of flavors. A booklet at least 15 pages long is filled with thorough (and incredibly helpful) English translations and instructions for every single remote, plus the washer/dryer. You even get a dedicated watering bottle to care for the windowbox plants.
There's no private outdoor space, but the "trash room" a door away is actually a back balcony with a decent lane view---and kept so beautifully clean and uncluttered that it was strangely enjoyable to visit. That alone said so much about the cleanliness standard here, that even areas not meant for primary use would be kept so perfectly.
The Shilin neighborhood is Taipei's major expat area, so you'll find a noticeably higher than average level of English fluency locally. The many fresh fruit markets around are terrific---yet the building's block is quiet, allowing sound sleep despite the generally bustling area.
