The warmth and peacefulness of the previous bedroom are totally destroyed, The highly complex line patterns of random length is embedded with a repeated large and violently bursting feature that resembles a squashed jelly fish with many long hairs (or a spider with way too many long but straight legs, or a huge insect-eating plants) extending outward in all directions. I don't know how others feel, to me this dizzying and creepy pattern is totally unsuitable for bedrooms. A visiting friend said he may have nightmares if he sleeps in the room.
It's interesting how different people have different perspectives. Is the new carpet you refer to the one we can see in my review pictures posted last month? If so, to be honest my wife and I barely noticed it, yet you are taking it completely at the extreme end of the scale... violently bursting, squashed jelly fish, spiders, insect-eating plants, dizzying, nightmares. I gotta give it to you, you have quite an extensive vocabulary to describe the carpet.
Now that you mention it, does Sheraton Taipei have my favorite carpet? No, but it's clean and is not in any way a factor in my considerations of which hotel to stay in Taipei in the future.
