Jin Hua Hotel

It's quite clean and tidy. You can also borrow a bike when you go out, which is very convenient for solo travelers.

The location is convenient and the staff provides excellent service. However, the Wi-Fi connection is poor; even when connected, it often disconnects or has no internet access. Additionally, many of the hot breakfast options are spicy, so those who don't eat spicy food are limited to toast.

The room facilities are very old and run-down, and there are a lot of mosquitoes in the room. Other hotels usually have a 12 PM check-out, but this one requires you to check out by 11 AM, and they charge an extra $200 if you want to extend it to 12 PM. The front desk staff were also very cold and unfriendly.

The bed was very hard and the pillows were too soft, plus there were mosquitoes in the room. I had a terrible night's sleep and woke up with a backache. I hope the facilities can be upgraded, and I also hope that staff training can be improved so that service quality can be enhanced. Responding to customer issues without deflecting blame would lead to a much better customer experience.

The hotel boasts an excellent location, just a five-minute walk from Luodong Train Station, and within a ten-minute walk of Luodong Night Market and the Luodong Forestry Culture Park. The hotel itself occupies the seventh and eighth floors of a commercial building, which also houses other hotels and entertainment businesses. The room rates are very affordable, and the rooms are well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. The only minor drawback is the lack of on-site parking. However, there's a parking lot right across the street that charges NT$40 per hour, with a daily maximum of NT$120.

The older lady working the morning shift provided really poor service. I had messaged them in advance to request a quieter room and to ask for more vegetables for my vegetarian meal. I'm not sure if they read it and ignored it, or just didn't bother to check, but when I checked in, I reiterated my requests. Her attitude was very firm, stating that she could only arrange what she saw fit. She also said the kitchen was being disinfected, so they couldn't offer the buffet breakfast. For vegetarians, it was just two slices of toast with jam, which was a huge difference from the abundant breakfast shown in the pictures. If they couldn't provide it, shouldn't they have called me to let me know so I could cancel or extend my stay? Also, the soundproofing is terrible; I was woken up at 5 AM by loud thumping noises from upstairs. All in all, I don't recommend this hotel.

This place is within walking distance of Luodong Night Market. While there's no dedicated parking, there's convenient parking right across the street. The facilities are a bit old but clean and functional. It's a decent option for a business overnight stay.
