It is also close to the red MRT line so just a short ride to the core of Taipei to visit some other sites on our list like Ximending, Chiang Kai Sjek memorial and maybe get over to Taipei 101.
I just had some SNAs clear for my rooms and I am now in a Premium Balcony room.
I will report back on my experience when I get a chance after our stay, but I think we will be satisfied with my choice.
