フロントに常駐している方々&他のスタッフの方々も皆、親切で、困った事が有れば通訳アプリ等を使って、問題を解決してくれます。 室内(家具等の設備)の古さは、私個人としては気になりませんでしたし、過去の良い時代な感じ&雰囲気もまた良いかなと。 それと照明のスイッチはベッド付近に集約されているので、ご確認を。

汽車停車場在B3,蚊子很多,要注意。飯店雖然許多評價不乾淨跟灰塵多,但住宿費便宜跟地點方便,我覺得就不要在意了。飯店很像小時後畢業旅行會去住的那種,很復古,隔音沒有很好,但剛好隔壁間過了11點就自動沒有大聲,所以隔音這點我自己覺得還好,可能隔壁房素質還是影像隔音感受

飯店硬體較舊但環境很乾淨, 空間舒適, 櫃台服務人員也很友善, 還會主動幫房客升等房間 個人覺得這間飯店CP值很不錯, 很適合出遊時預算有限的旅客, 下次有機會到台中旅遊時會再度入住此飯店

The first room we were shown we could not stay in, there was a heavy chlorine and smoke smell. They showed us to a second room, that was not cleaned properly and finally they upgraded us to a room that was quite nice, just the beds were very hard.

Everything was at least decent minus the hardness of the bed. Although it's still better than being too soft. Area not great to find things to do, but a 5 minute cab from the rest of the city.

確かに値段は安いかもしれない。 悪い点は挙げればきりがないが、以下のとおり。 冬にかかわらず、掃除が行き届いておらず、虫が出た。 また電気関係の配線設備が剥き出しなど。 またフロントのスタッフも極めて無愛想で、二度と泊まりたくない宿。 良かった点は、唯一シャワーのお湯の出がよいところぐらいか。
