As soon as I walked into the hotel, I felt like I was entering a time tunnel, and I felt like I was back in 1960. But now it is 2023, and this hotel is very old.
Old, dirty, there is only one plug next to the desk, there is a musty smell, the smell of the toilet can also be smelled, the toilet door must be closed, there is something wrong with the springs of the bed, the center of the bed is sunken, there are no hangers, the wardrobe is very dirty, there is It looks like a quilt left in an abandoned house. You don't want to open it.
The biggest problem is the door. I read a review before that said the soundproofing is not good, but that is not an accurate description. To be precise, there is a very large gap at the bottom of the door, which allows no light or sound at all. There is no privacy and it feels unsafe. Because it is too old, the wooden door and the door frame are a little out of place, and it takes force to close the door. The door lock is an old-style pig gall lock, and a door chain must be used. The key and power supply are the oldest type. I used a suitcase to prop up the door. In case someone came in, I woke up the next morning to find that the door had been knocked open and was being held open by the door chain. 😱
There is a hanging rack in the bathroom above the shower stall. When I take a shower, the towels placed behind it are soaked. I don’t understand what the purpose of this design is. Where should I put clothes and towels? 😅
Apart from the location (a 2-minute walk from Tainan Railway Station), there are no advantages at all.
There are surprisingly not many hotels in Tainan. The prices near the train station are higher, there are more B&Bs, and there are very few mid-priced hotels. I went there for more than 20 days in a row, including Taipei, Taichung, Tainan, and Kaohsiung. Tainan is a better choice than Taichung. Rare and expensive, they seem to be in a class of their own.
A better solution is to stay in a B&B/hotel further away, and then take a taxi to the hotel, which may be more cost-effective.
