We had mentioned that we didn’t want a corner room, but one was assigned to us anyway. When we entered the room, the air conditioner had clearly been running for a while — it was freezing inside. No matter how we tried to adjust the temperature, the display stayed at 13 degrees. We also found two dead flies on the bed. We reported this to the receptionist. At first, he said the air conditioning was centrally controlled, so the temperature couldn’t be changed. He also offered to provide an extra blanket in case we still felt cold and to change the bed sheets, but we refused. He then arranged another room for us, where the temperature could be adjusted to 24 degrees. However, the light in that room was broken and kept flickering. Not recommend and not coming back.

We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The location is great, the rooms are quiet, clean, and well-maintained, with daily housekeeping and complete replenishment of amenities. We also appreciated the express check-in and check-out, which made the process smooth and convenient. The buffet breakfast offered a good variety of options, and we especially liked that hotpot was included. Since we had an early flight, the hotel also accommodated our request for packed breakfast, which we truly appreciated. One small suggestion for improvement: better internal coordination among staff regarding guest requests. We requested packed breakfast before arrival and again at check-in, but during our last day some staff were not aware of the arrangement, although it was eventually prepared. Clear endorsement of guest requests within the team would make the experience even smoother. Overall, the hotel provides very good service, comfortable rooms, and a convenient location. We would definitely recommend staying here.

The location is quite convenient and safe. My room has no windows, no view and not enough flesh air. It is also quite small, but the breakfast surprises me with choices of hotpot in the morning. Overall, it is OK, but just OK.

Papawhale had a very nice location, walking distance 6 minutes to Xi men MRT station, or Ximending night market, the room condition is not as same as appear in the website, the bed frame is made up of wood pallet, you can smell the moss taste, the bed frame headboard has some weird wet taste. Other than that is ok.
