The OrigInn Space facilities were clean, comfortable, full of character, and very cozy. We loved playing jazz albums on the record player in our room to wake up in the morning and the additional touches (like the coffee packets with a lovely note on our door to welcome us, and earplugs to help us sleep as the building is quite old and lacks some soundproofing) made us feel very at home. The staff were kind and helpful especially when we needed to switch rooms (due to availability for our dates) outside of normal business hours. We hope to stay again in the near future!

Because it is an old facility, the facilities are not as good as a hotel. However, the staff are friendly and they spoke slowly to me because I am not good at English, which was very helpful. Also, the cat id very whimsical and cute.

The Originn is a beautiful place to stay. The building is full of character and the decoration is cool without being over the top. Love that they have records and books to borrow. It is very relaxing. The staff were super friendly and informative. Didn't know before hand that the bathroom is a short outside balcony walk from the room so not ideal if you need to get up during the night. Also I assume due to the age of the property the walls are super thin and you can clearly hear other guests' conversations. Overall excellent though and we will be staying here again. Thank you

スタッフは親切で猫はフレンドリーでとても愛らしいです。しかし鍵が開かなくなることが何度もあり、長い時には20分程格闘しました。トイレの度に大変な思いをするし、夜中に締め出される恐怖もあり、なかなか難しく感じます。中から開けるのも硬いし、外から鍵で開けるのも困難でした。トイレやバスルームが部屋にない事もそうですが、それよりも鍵が開かないことが大きなことでした。

雰囲気のある建物、センスのよいインテリア、寝心地のよいベッド、親切なスタッフさん、最高にかわいい猫さん。とても素敵な宿です。桃園空港からMRTで台北駅へ着いたら、そのまま徒歩で行けます。 個人的には不満はないですが、エレベーターのない建物なので、大きなスーツケースは要注意。交通量の多い道路に面しているので、騒音が気になる人もいるかもしれません。
