"My boyfriend and I stayed here for 7 days and really enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and spacious. The gym was also clean and well-maintained. All staff members were very friendly and helpful. The location is centrally located in Kaohsiung City with easy access to transportation. We also liked the food court in the basement of the building - easy to find food when we were too lazy to leave the hotel. Overall a very good experience and we would definitely stay here again."
