the Retro Tai-pan properties in Tainan

it was a great stay at Tainan. The hotel is super accommodating and the staffs are friendly. I really enjoyed the breakfast provided by the hotel and there are a few options to choose from for everyday. I had a noisy neighbour during the stay, but the staff attended to it and even compensated me a latte after I check out! Attitude matters the most and it was very pleasant. Strongly recommended.

The hostel is well-located and the self check-in process is very well explained. My friend and I stayed in the mixed dorm, but we didn't realize it had so many beds. Even though it was 16 guys and just the two of us, we never felt unsafe. The only issue was that with so many people in the room, some guys snored, which made it hard for me to sleep. Other than that, it's a quiet, clean room, and the beds are comfortable. I think for the price, it's a really good option.

Getting to this hotel by public transport might take a bit longer, especially if you're walking. However, the upside is that strolling through the streets and alleys is a great way to really get to know the city. Aside from the slightly out-of-the-way location, the room facilities are complete, thoughtful, and clean. The common area in the basement is comfortable, offering tea bags and a water dispenser, with more available on different floors.
