Papersun Hotel

Close to the Shilin train station and market. No store in the immediate vicinity and wasn't on my app, so make sure to screenshot the location so you can find it easily outside the station. Not hard through just keep down Fude road and you'll see it past a girls junior high.

Front desk mostly unhelpful. They look unhappy. Only 1 female staff was friendly. I wanted to check in early to visit a family member in the nearby hospital, but all the male front desk staff wanted was extra money for the few hours I was early. I paid more than half the nightly rate to check in early. If you want to be near the Shin Kong Hospital, the location is great. Otherwise, there are much better and cheaper options. No spoons in the room but 2 mugs are provided. Housekeeping is good with no tight time restrictions. Certain room designs are strange especially those facing the forsaken factory. Relatively close to the Shilin Station. Noisy rooms as the windows are not doubled-glazed from noise, so loud cars and motorbikes are clearly heard. Washing and drying facilities are useful and inexpensive. The free coffee from 3-6pm is nice. I would not stay here again unless I need to be near the hospital.

found this place by chance and am glad to have chosen it. it is located near shilin night market and within walking distances to the garden where chiang and his family host foreign visitors (forgot its name), the palace museum and the under-rated astronomy museum. quiet environment, friendly staff. the breakfast served was good. the only wish i had was that they can try varying it. after 3 similar breakfasts for 3 days, i was beginning to get sick of it and wishing for tradition chinese breakfast like millet porridge. highly recommend this place for those on a budget and do not mind not being too near the city centre. we prefer the quiet environment after spending the day exploring the city.
