Ben’s place is extremely clean and comes with dryer, washer, and kitchen. Communication with Ben was excellent and his replies were prompt and helpful. Location wise, it’s less than a 3-min walk to Carrefour and restaurants. Ximending is about a 10-min walk away, so if you have luggage, that might be slightly more challenging than not. All in all, we loved the place and we’d book again when we have a chance to be back in Taipei!
