CHECK inn Express Taipei Station

The room is exceptionally small and the window blind unable to draw as it is situated as the headboard so no privacy. The room has water stain on the wall (5th picture) with wall paper peeling (4th picture) and the toilet sink sitting on top of a rusty (3rd picture) and peeling iron stand 😖 Kudos to the hotel who managed to squeeze all in the bathroom size 8 x 10 steps area (7th picture)

12 min walk from the HSR Taipei station. Staff helped with the electronic self check in machine but she was very monotonous throughout, must be a tiring day for her. Room was standard with a small window even though my booking stated no window. Mattress was pretty comfy. One of the toilet light was not functioning so was rather dim. Room has an old smell as you step in, I guess the hotel could use some renovation. Otherwise overall pretty worth the money given the location.

Staff is friendly and helpful.

Cost performance wise, it is best choice especially if you take late-night flight to Taipei. Room/bed/restroom was spacious enough even for 2 people (I was solo traveler tho) and they have basic amenities including shampoo, body wash and the like.

Hotel was located about 10minutes from the Taipei main station. This is my second time staying here, and frankly was a little disappointed. The fire alarm kept going off and apparently it was due to the fault of the alarm. The staff were nice and apologetic but the alarm kept going off even at 12am which affected sleep quality.

Excellent location, decent facilities and friendly staff. This hotel will be a very value-for-money option if you are looking for a place to stay in Taipei downtown :)
