Will Stay Here Again!
Older hotel, but provides a clean basic room with clean private bath. Very convenient to Taichung train station, Taichung Park, small shops and eating places. Staff are wonderfully congenial.

Needs refurbishment
When entering the hotel we immediately realized a strong smell of cigarettes all along the floors. Although smoking seems forbidden now, the smell of it is still everywhere. This place needs an urgent refurbishment. This is not a place we would like to stay overnight with our kids again nor suggest that to any other family. The missing breakfast added on-top and made us leave as early as possible the next morning.

DO NOT STAY at this hotel even if it's FREE!
The hotel is almost falling apart! Our room had a window that looked into another smaller empty room with no bed, no closet, no furniture. It was very strange. The ceiling of the smaller room was nicely designed, like our room. Our air conditioner was loud the whole night. That plus the sound from the air conditioner next door, we weren't able to sleep the whole night. The bathroom was large and has green tiles everywhere including the walls and the floor. It had no shower curtain so I had to be careful when I shower or the whole bathroom would be wet. I felt like I walked into a dark green forest. There was a large space on the side of the tub with nothing there. There were a cover and sheets and no blankets. I had to get it from the closet. The blanket smelt and I felt itchy after sleeping in the bed. There were only one plug the whole room and not enough lighting. The front desk people are very nice and helpful. I will not stay in this hotel again even though it is close to many shops and restaurants.

Generally is fair. except that they do not clean the room while you are out for the day. It will be good if the internet is in the room because those who use the computer at the internet site is very inconsiderate, they on the volume loud. so it is very noisy

Not worth saving $20. Go somewhere else.
I have stayed in some pretty shady hotels in the past but for $60, I would rather have stayed in a hostel. The room smelled like cigarette smoke and the tv remote was sticky. The tile floors in the bathroom were coming up and you have to hold the shower nozzle to take a shower as the holder on the wall shoots the water straight forward. The final nail in the coffin for me was lack of wi fi and the blaring techno music all night long from the street below. You will be staying in a night club zone. Beware. Wi fi only works in lobby.

Decent hotel with very cheap price
It looks like a family-owned business with good service, located not far from the Taichung train station. Almost no lobby area. No breakfast. Plenty of family food places nearby, but lots of them didn't seem to open during early to middle of the daytime.

Friendly place to stay
This hotel is easy walking distance from Taichung train station, but you will need to check where to go on a map first. Staff are friendly and helpful. There is free wifi Internet and tables and chairs at the back of the lobby. Only real drawbacks are the noisy air conditioning and the fact that the hotel is not on the ground floor (despite the hotel's name) since you will have to carry your luggage up a flight of steps to the lobby. Thankfully there is a lift from the lobby to the rooms. If this hotel upgraded its airconditioning system and added free wifi to each room it would be the best economy deal in town.

Somewhat faded, but for the price, it will do.
The a/c worked fine, and we had decent natural light, so that was good. The bed was just ok, the shower/bathroom not great (dark, hard to switch from bath to shower mode with the water). The location is about 10 min walk from the main train station, but this is a faded part of town. Not dangerous, and I suppose actually quite convenient if you. Big nice park just a couple minutes away, and two different, big shopping areas within around a 5 minutes' walk.

Taichung - Good Ground Hotel
Staff is very warm & friendly. Easily accessible to shops. The mattress is not very comfortable & the foundation box is quite unstable... tends to get ache all over after sleeping in for 4 hrs or so. It's good if you are looking for a short rest & on a tight budget.

Taichung Good Ground Hotel
The hotel's name in Chinese is not reflected in the Internet booking. So the taxi had a had time trying to find it. When I checked in, I was shocked by the poor maintenance of the hotel. It was a third class hotel in a third class neighborhood, for the price I was paying. But the friendliness of the staff made up a lot for the hotel.

Helpful Staff
Upon checking in I discovered to my horror that I was missing my passport. I asked them to call the High Speed Rail Station in Taichung and inquire if perhaps I may have dropped it in the train which we took in Taipei. In less than ten minutes they were able to advise me that my passport had been found and that the HSR Taichung Station will call again with the information as to when I can retrieve the passport. So even before going out for dinner I already was ablet o plan how and when to go to the HSR Station the next day. With that knowledge I was able to sleep soundly.

Good to pass the night
The room had everything necessary, but was somewhat small. Me and a friend just needed a place to sleep and then get back going. For that purpose it served our needs. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the shower did its job. There was also a rather big flat screen TV hanging from the wall (which we didn't take advantage of). We had breakfast there, which is the typical Chinese breakfast. I liked it, but it does taste very different from typical western breakfast.

Do you'r self a favour and stay away from this so called HOTEL... More like a run down hostel with hookers out the front. Location is only good if you want a short walk to the Bus which takes you to Sun Moon Lake. Bathroom was shocking, bed was rock hard, window looking into another building and to top it off.. hookers out the front of the hotel!
