Be careful with the noise outside
Like others have commented- only book this place if you are easy to sleep despite the noise outside- the location is super convenient- the issue is the noise.

The hotel staff forced me to move from the Shihlin Metro Home to another hotel, Shihlin 13 Home, because of over-booking. They did not asked for my approval and simply told me that I was changed to another hotel. The staff also sold my room at Shihlin 13 Home to another customer and gave my room key passcode to him. Therefore, the other customer was able to open my door. Fortunately, I was in the room and told him to contact the staff. If I lost anything in this event, the staff will not take any responsibility. The staff also gave my the wrong door passcodes several times. This is the worst experience that I have in many years of staying in hotel.

The room and the bathroom are clean. I had some trouble trying to open the door but the staff walked me through the process. Someone was smoking somewhere around the unit at a point but the scent dissipated somewhat after I opened the window for half an hour. I heard neighbors laughing and talking from time to time though they weren't very loud

Check in Pain
The checking in is a bit troublesome cos there is no one there to assist in check in, everything have to be done by Line. If you goes without network or Line, you will be trap there. So you want to stay in this cheap hotel, pls do prepared

Great location right by the shilin MRT station. 8min walk to the Shilin night market. It's is right by the MRT track...so it's pretty noisy until 1am. Clean enough... check-in is right at 3am. No staff at location. Mattress are very hard.

I booked a non-smoke room, we didn’t mind the room is small, but the room has an extreme smoke smell, we couldn’t stand it, we turned on the air purifier all night, till check out, the smell was still so strong. We were sore throat and headache all night.

I must say I didnt enjoy my stay at this hotel. Basically its not a hotel. It a self service room just for occupancy with basic support on room service. But, if nothing goes wrong, it is ok. But the toilet flash got loose on the days and nobody is reachable. No phone and no wifi. LMAO! What was more infuriating is that my room got changed to the smallest unit at ANOTHER property, 2 street away from where i stay. Imagine my two old 70s parents walking those distance carrying the luggage up the stairs and now. There is no luggage concerige too. So if u have spare time, get risk of the luggages got stolen! Oh and i left my swim suit in the room and that auntie dont bother returning it to me when she sees us return for our luggage. Whats more! The cleaning auntie needs to get tipped in order to set our blanklets straight and top up our items in the room. Whats more?! She doesnt clean any used cups. So maybe its not within her job cause this is basically a self service room that u pay for sleep ONLY. I think hotel 81 in Singapore has better service. Shame. I can only comfort myself that at least expedia refunded me some cash voucher. Upsetting stay.

tiny room (that's all I needed) with bed and private bath--doesn't even have a desk; would have been nice if there was a small fridge for food storage; no laundry facilities; but really, it is just steps away from Shihlin metro station

There is no front desk nor check in place. None is available to help you there. There is no Hotel signs. You will not find this place if you have never been there. They do not keep your bags before check in nor after check out. Inside the closest Mrt station has limited numbers of coin lockers. You need to pay $10TWD. This hotel is close to Mrt station and food. Waling distance to a night market.
