Right after paying on Expedia, I received a message asking what time I would be arriving. Informed that check in was until 21:00. At the time being present at another country's airport, I responded I would try to be before 21:00.
Unfortunately, the airline delayed the departure time. Once arrived at the Taipei airport, I had received several messages in CAPS from the property. "I WILL WAIT UNTIL 10:00 PM (22:00)
"PLEASE ARRIVE BEFORE 10:30" and such.
None of the communication mentioned the door of the multi-use office building would be locked. There is no attendant. There is no bell. There was no password to open a key lock. Nothing. Imagine it is around midnight and you arrive at an impossible place. I could have stayed at the airport or I could have made another arrangements if I knew I could not even enter the building and go to the 6th floor of that old building. I would have been okay just to sit at a simple chair and have a shelter until the morning. Have stayed at all kinds of hostels, they all did better than this leaving instructions and information to enter the building. And, I prepaid for it. It wasn't like I didn't pay and no-show. I replied information my intention to be there,too. What a terrible and wasteful experience. My time, money and health.
