Interesting industrial design, common areas look pretty esthetic for photos. Comfy and spacious sleeping arrangement in room but cleanliness needs a lot of work, especially in the shower. Room was super dusty and needs some maintenance.

I love the whole vibe of the hotel where it give off this rustic industrial look but the interior of the room is really nice. Front desk was super accommodating when we wanted to upgrade our room but the initial upgraded room was not to our liking and they kindly suggested another room for us to have a look first before we decide on it. we were able to check in an hour earlier as well and was able to keep our luggage at the front desk after check out and return back later to collect. overall an amazing experience with SOF hotel and would definitely come back to stay when im in taichung again

Pros: Free-flow coffee, and it tastes great. Cons: 1. Check-in time is 4 PM, whereas in Japan, the latest it would be is 3 PM. 2. Poor soundproofing: I could clearly hear the TV from the next room. 3. The TV only has a smart set-top box, meaning no live TV channels, and you need to bring your own accounts for streaming. 4. There was a sewage smell coming from the bathroom at night. I'm not trying to be overly critical; I just feel the hotel isn't treating its guests fairly. The public spaces are indeed well-designed, but a hotel's primary function is to provide a comfortable stay, and it seems this fundamental aspect has been overlooked.

🅿️ Parking: Since I was driving, I parked on the 7th floor and above of the Sunday Tiandi Outlet. You can park first and then check-in. The front desk will provide a paper slip, which makes it very convenient to enter and exit the parking lot during your stay. Pros: ❶ Great location, very close to the hotel ❷ It's free. Cons: ❶ The parking lot is quite small, so you have to keep circling up ❷ Since it's a department store parking lot, it can get very crowded sometimes, and you have to wait for the elevators (on the day I visited, two out of three elevators were out of order) ❸ You need to register when you exit, and sometimes staff will patrol, so you have to wait. Hotel Location: Pros: When you open the map, it's close to all the popular attractions. Even if some places are further away, public transportation is very convenient. Cons: At night, in the direction of the convenience store, there are clubs or other establishments...? A group of people gather there. I suggest going with a companion if you need to buy things at the convenience store (this point varies from person to person). Hotel: Pros: ❶ The front desk staff are very helpful ❷ When checking in, you can get combs, razors, and toothbrushes (🆓) at the front desk ❸ There's no bottled water, but there's a water dispenser outside the elevators where you can fill your room's mug (you can also get free drinks at the front desk, the cocoa is delicious) ❹ The environment is very clean and pleasant ❺ You can arrange for housekeeping to clean the room. Cons: ❶ There were mosquitoes, so bring insect repellent. Room: Deluxe Studio Suite (the one in the far corner to the right of the elevator on the 7th floor) Pros: ❶ The environment is clean, and the facilities seem quite new. Cons: ❶ The table and chairs are hard and small ❷ The soundproofing is poor; you can hear conversations loudly from the hallway ❸ The bathroom takes up one-third of the room and isn't completely dry/wet separated. Although the bathroom space is large, the sink is tiny and cute. Suggestion: This room type is suitable for one person; it feels a bit cramped for two.

Quite popular and busy hotel. The front is always busy. Probably because the humid weather in Taichung and there are lots of plants in the hotel, it means there are lots of mosquitos and cockroaches as well. The room is quite dark so can’t really see if everything is clean and mosquito free.

The hotel has a lot of character, and the front desk service was exceptional! I accidentally caught a cold in the middle of the night, and they even gave me cold medicine, which was incredibly kind of them!

Looked like a construction site on first glance. That’s the theme. Little facility otherwise..

The owner was incredibly kind. Knowing I hadn't rested, they checked for available rooms and allowed me to check in early, even upgrading my room. A huge thank you to the owner! 👍🏾

A very unique hotel, but the location is a bit out of the way.

Booked this hotel based on the aesthetics and beautiful shown on the booking site....but what a let down. Firstly when we arrived at the hotel, there were no staffs at the reception area ! There were another group waiting also but seems like they gave up and left for another hotel (could have waited until fed up). Same for us, we looked around every corner and doors, called the hotline but to no avail. Waited close to 1 hour before some cleaners arrived for their shift and helped us to call the staff before they appear. "give explanation as short of manpower so were cleaning the rooms" ! We did saw some cleaners on the second level, waved at them but gave a curious look and went back to their chores, and I couldn't go up as it was access by key card. What I am saying is there were tourist luggage's which they were suppose to look after, computers and cards were lying around but no one around manning it ! The hotel's design is not suitable for family travellers and children as it's very eerie at night and the worst part is bottle water and electrical kettle is NOT supplied so you need to walk out to the corridor where the water dispenser is making it very troublesome just to drink water. The hotel is also situated in the adult entertainment area like KTV,night clubs and gambling dens ! Nothing much in the area to explore and we pretty much head back to our as early as possible as it doesn't look safe walking around. Would not recommend staying here.
