It was our first ever family trip with our parents who are already in their 60s. We wanted a cozy and spacious space for them instead of a small hotel room and it wasn’t easy to find one in Taipei city that is spacious and has 2 bathrooms.
BV’s apartment was perfect to what we needed, especially when it is also extremely gorgeous and tastefully designed and decorated! The fact that it is so secured (one floor one unit only, key needed to press your floor number in the lift) is a plus point. My parents were so impressed and kept telling their friends after the trip that the apartment we stayed were really really nice and as the one who planned the stay and the trip, I couldn’t be any happier to hear that! :)
The host was also super friendly (same as all Taiwanese I would say, they are the friendliest people I’ve ever met) and helpful. She kept telling me to contact her if there is any problems or if we need help like booking of restaurants and stuff!
But I think the best part of the stay is that it’s extremely convenient! 5 mins walk to the MRT station, Starbucks, McD, Family Mart, Watson, Cosmed all within reach. And best of all, food food food! So many choices! Breakfast, lunch, dinner up till supper!!! We actually had one of our best meals in Taipei just few steps away from the apartment at 玉欣珍! We love it so much we ate like at least 4 times there since they are open 24 hours!
The only suggestion for improvement would be the cleaning can be a bit more professional. Like the towels and clothes that were washed and left hanging at the hanging area and needed us to take them down before we could hang our laundry. And some hair left in the bathroom. But these are just really minor problems cos we all know this is isn’t a hotel.
We truly enjoyed our stay and really couldn’t stop bragging about the apartment to our friends!
