Expedia's marketing message for this facility should be corrected at once. First, there is NO Cook-to-Order breakfast, not even one piece of free toast. No free breakfast is included, period. 2nd, there is no Nightly Social Activity as the facility claims to host every night free for guests. 3rd, there is no computer station to use as included in Expedia Amenity list. 4th, there is no Tour/Ticket Desk assistance as claimed. The lady was not even interested in helping us with the local transportation information. I made a decision to pay a higher rate and to accept the shared bathroom options instead of a few lesser expensive business hotels in the area, as I was truly looking forward to the Cook-to-Order Breakfast and the nightly social activities with fellow guests. I am expecting Expedia to compensate me for your false marketing information that led me to overpay my stay.

駅からすぐ近いのがよい。

駅からすぐ近くて便利。シャワールームとトイレが一緒にあるため、誰かがシャワーを使用した後、床は水浸しで、トイレの便座は濡れているし、シャワーを使っている間はトイレに入れない。もう一つあるけど、二つふさがると大変かも？　でも、値段が安いのでGOOD

店主很用心經營，會提供一些工作坊给住客玩樂。我上那一堂是用皮革做鎖匙圈，老闆很用心教大家做，過程中大家都很温暖，互相提點，互相幫忙在時間完成，大家都很開心渡過一個愉快的晚上。如再到台南一定會再次入住。

地點是非常便利，如果不熟臺南的交通是不錯的選擇。但有幾點給想定這家的人參考看看： 一）床單和枕頭套需要自己鋪，這個條件在我訂房時是不會寫出來的，個人來説很不喜歡分到上鋪還要自己鋪床，因一來空間很小，二來動作很大很容易吵到同房的人，如果早知道需要自己鋪床我會選別的地方住。 二）公共地方（浴室厠所）感覺有點舊舊的，且不是乾濕分離，我用厠所的時候紙巾濕掉了。 三）對我個人來説冷氣不夠，因床的設計非常不通風，冷氣吹不到很悶熱，結果我半夜4點就被熱醒了。 四）公共領域的座位並不多，除了中間桌子那幾個座位會被冷氣吹到外別的位子很熱，想開風扇結果風扇是壞的…… 五）員工晚上9點左右就會下班 六）晚上會有辦活動，我個人是沒差 七）早餐是免費吐司
