It's a good deal to stay while taking advantage of the event discount. It's also close to the Beimen MRT station. The service staff is very kind and helpful. The room has no smell. Although the soundproofing is a little bad, it's still within acceptable limits. Looking forward to coming again next time.

I came to Taiwan for the first time in my life to travel abroad, and I think I had too high expectations. I went to a Michelin 1-star restaurant and a hotel buffet, but I was so disappointed. But after meeting our guide Yeongsim, Taipei will be a truly memorable experience. The weather was really bad on the day of the tour. However, listening to the guide's stories about delicious restaurants and souvenirs on the bus, I think I made the most enjoyable memories. If you come to Taiwan, you must go on the Yespokji Tour. Thank you so much, guide Yeongsim!!

We had so much fun in this tour! Our tour guide, Miss Kelly Shao really ensures we enjoy and shares history and culture of Taiwan. She looks and waits for us and suggested foods and must see attractions to visit in Taipei! Would definitely reco her as a tour guide, and hoping she will also be the one on our next tour booked here in Klook! My friends and I are so grateful and happy today. ❤️ A bit tiring from all walks but it’s the experience that we love and enjoyed much! 🥰💗 Thank you Klook! ❤️
