The property was quiet and clean and located right near the Dongmen subway stop. It's close to the Yongkang St so the nearby shaved ice and other food venues were great! (plus 7-11 is nearby) They had free laundry too, which was unexpected and nice! Plus they had snacks out in the lobby from 1p-6p so we could try some Taiwanese snacks. There is a scale in the lobby to weigh one's bag before heading to the airport. There is a water dispenser in the lobby too...and a tea kettle in the room. Check in is 2pm, I believe. Note that the pillows and bedding are down, so if you have an allergy, ask for accommodations before you head up to your room. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it.

It's incredibly clean and well-maintained. The staff is friendly, and even had some free snacks and drinks for Christmas and New Years. The bed is comfortable, the A/C works well, nice waterfall style shower. However, the absolute best thing is the area. You can walk down Yong Kang Street for all sorts of great shops and cafes, or if you want to explore Taipei, you're about a 4 minute walk from Dongmen MRT station, which connects to both the orange and red lines. My only warning is that the room is very small. Even finding a place for the suitcase was difficult. But, as long as you know that going in, it's great. I'd stay here again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location of this property was fantastic but that's the only good point about this place. The first room I checked into was dirty and dank. I spoke to Tina, who was manning the front desk that night, and she kindly moved me into a new, upgraded room, which was way better. But I have to say - the photos aren't a good representation of the property. It's dated. When I went downstairs the next day, a man was at the front desk and he was completely useless. I asked him a few questions and he couldn't answer any of them, saying he didn't live in the area and therefore had no knowledge of the area. He couldn't even point me to the nearest pharmacy. He had a terrible attitude. And that really soured my experience with the property. i really liked the location though - it's right beside Ding Tai Fung, and there is so much to eat around here. Transport is convenient and it's a safe area. Too bad the staff were not helpful.

It's very close to the heart of the Yongkang Street area. Thus, it's extremely convenient for dining, shopping and transportation. The price is great for such a location. However, the facility is really old, and the 5th floor does not have elevator access, thus not good if you have a heavy luggage. When our next-door room's AC unit was broken, technicians had to pass through our room to install a new unit during our state (the staff did ask us for permission). The cleaning equipment was scattered among the stairs, as they did not have designated room for it (hence not recommending to use stairs).

Simply Wonderful!
I stayed four nights at another hotel in Taipei and regretted that I did not stay those nights at ARK Dongmen too. The ARK was nearly perfect. The staff was wonderful. The free breakfast was from local restaurants and different every day (even sushi one morning). The bed and shower were fantastic. But the best thing is the hotel location! A very short walk to a Red Line MRT station, Yong Kang Street, and Da'an Park. A really great neighborhood with everything you might need nearby.

The location is good, but the wifi on all floors was intermittent, my two smart phones and laptop were offline most of the time. When I checked at the front desk to have it fixed, they were clueless and had no one skillful to fix the problem. The soundproofing is very poor, with televisions mounted against the wall that abuts the next room, causing you to hear others, and others to complain about you. I then found out that they had shared my personal information with someone not associated with the hotel, which caused a very serious problem for me. Very unprofessional.
