Very Good
Location is within 2 blocks of Liouhe Night Market and Formosa MRT station. AC worked well. Staff were nice.
There are some odd plumbing and remodeling, for example, the bathroom is two steps above the rest of the room, which leaves very little head room for my husband. He actually tilted his head the entire time when showering to avoid hitting the ceiling. Also the WiFi was slow at times. I anticipated a bit more for the price to be honest.

1. We stayed in this property twice in our trip (because we went to visit another attraction in the middle of our trip). We had to change to another room during our second stay. But this room offered a much better view than the first room.
2. Flexible payment. Since we were international travellers and did not have a Taiwan bank account, we paid for the property in cash once we arrived.
3. We had to leave some luggage in the property, because we left the property for one night when we visited another attraction. The property helped keep our stuff, so we did not need to carry it with us. (We were instructed to leave our stuff on the couch inside the lobby/faced the reception desk, with a camera there.)
4. The property offered indoor slippers, which could tell the management was trying to keep the indoor area clean. We bought our own slippers, but we appreciated the management's effort.
5. Very close to Liu He night market, which offered many different types of food.
6. One block away from the new Kaohsiung train station, walking distance from the hotel was about 10 minutes.
1. The first room we stayed in had concealed big windows and one openable window, but these windows faced/opened to a balcony which was equipped with several outdoor units/wires of air conditioners. These outdoor units also created lots of noise, especially if the window was opened.
2. During our second stay, we had to change to another room because the first room's AC had an issue.
3. Some grout joints of the washroom tiles had mould.
4. The room had two steps around the entrance/washroom area, so travellers had to get used to the steps in order not to cause safety hazards.
5. The sink plug/drainage stopper in the sink was very challenging to pull out during our second stay. The staff had to find some tools to get it out.

It is just a walking distance from formosa blvd station exit no. 10. It is a walking distance from liuhe night market. Just below the building there are 711 and lots of food establishments as well as atm. The hotel is on the 10f of the building, they offering free coffee, tea and snacks.
The location is nice, the place is great but the.staff is not fluent enough in english but its okay she will ask you to translate it in chinese. But overall it is a great stay.

Some larger/more prominent signage on the street frontage would help locating.

• Location was great; ~5 min walk Liouhe night market and Farmosa Boulevard station with convenience store located just downstairs
• Common spaces were also cozy with snacks, toiletries and water dispensers
• Room was spacious but cozy and clean with all the facilities one could need; requested for a room with a swing and it added an element of fun during my stay
• 24/7 reception and both the lady and gentleman I encountered were friendly and very helpful; gave a clear rundown of all the facilities
• Laundry services were offered (a big big plus for me!!)
Definitely looking forward to staying here again in the future on visits to Kaohsiung!

Very friendly owners, our laundry was done for free, there are also free snacks.
The location is very central to explore the city, also walking distance to the central station and both metro lines.
Great value for money.

The location and owners were the best part of this stay! The owner took the time to explain all the amenities Gwawa offers. She made sure you understood all that was available. The location is hard to beat being so close to Formosa and a night market.

Quaint place with lots of space in room to spread stuff out, desk chair hanging space etc. Location perfect next to fermosa intersection. Quiet at night, 7 11 downstairs and good food all around.
Fridge in room, bathroom small but adequate, window for natural light and air. Mr Chen speaks English and kindly lent me a power plug adaptor. Good value for money
