Chao Motel in Taoyuan Taiwan

Описание: The room was nicely decorated and comfortable, and good for the price, and walking distance from a lot of food options. A few things I didn't realise when I booked: - it's a motel, so designed for people who are driving. Not a big deal that we weren't driving, just that there's no reception room - just a little kiosk where the staff sit at the start of the driveway. We didn't realise at first and didn't know where to go to check in! - I think the hotel is mostly for locals who are driving through, and they had trouble finding my booking on Expedia as he check in staff didn't speak much English. We worked it out in the end, but maybe the problem was that my booking confirmation details I showed them were in English so it was hard for match my booking to whatever was in their system. - the address listed in Expedia is correct, but Google maps (or at least the English version) didn't recognise it. In fact the location that shows up in Google maps when you search for the hotel is just the centre of Taiyuan and not the hotel location at all So we spent a long time trying to figure out what address to enter into Uber. We ended up just finding the location in the map, and then dropping a pin to navigate to it. - the room had a bit of a cigarette smell, but it wasn't too strong so didn't bother us. Anyway, overall a good place to stay for the price, but a few challenges given that we were not very prepared!
