The hotel location is not too bad. It’s a 5 to 9 minute walk from the metro station in a straight line. If you walk in the opposite direction, it’s the way to the Ningxia night market. Very convenient location if you’re commuting by metro for most of your trip.
The room and hallway are bright and clean. No strong, or foul, strange odours at all. Each floor has a feature entrance to the hallway. For example, the 8th floor is Maji Meow and is quite cute.
The front desk staff are friendly and helpful. They are staffed by people who speak Cantonese, Mandarin, and English. The chamber maid was very friendly and helpful and accommodating to our needs since we asked for extra covers.
The only negative is the room is cold and there is no way to adjust the temperature correctly. We turned the temperature up to 30 degrees Celsius, but the actual temperature on the panel ended up as 18 degrees Celsius no matter what we tried. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It didn’t help that one of the air conditioning vents are directly over the bed. The independent twin beds in the room are more suited for children as some others have said since they tend to be on the soft side and really fall in when you sit on them. However, if you don’t mind a soft bed, they’re fine for adults.
We also loved there’s a whole downstairs room and area complete with a hot and cold drink machine like coffee, milk tea, soy milk and milk. There’s also a water machine with hot and cold water. They also have tea leaf eggs which are delicious, assorted snacks, and flavoured jelly. It’s well used by other guests there. We saw a variety of travellers from different places. We saw a lot of Japanese travellers there though. They also have a gaming station as well as a computer you can access the internet. Both wireless and Lightning charging stations are also available. You can spend all day in there if you like. However, they do have operating hours there (5 am to 2 am the time we stayed there). In the corner they also have a massage chair. It’s all an unexpected bonus! :-) You may also order breakfast (paid separately on your own) with the front desk and they’ll have breakfast cooked and ready for you since it looks like they have a full kitchen downstairs.
All in all, we very much enjoyed our stay at the Yomi Hotel. Will definitely be one of our top choices when we visit Taipei again.
