Same here. I don't trust their in house photos too :D

some hotels have images taken by experts
his nick is oyster if i rmb correctly ...
they took the images so nice haha ...

best is to see those submitted by those who have stayed there recently ...
Sometimes the angle might make the room looks nicer or bigger in size lol ...

I dun trust hotel pics. Rely more on tripadvisor traveller pics for a more realistic view

I will not book a hotel with no or very few review. Those picture you see are not traveller picture, which is not accurate. There are many good choice of hotels below $100, ask dede or search yourself.

ya lo pic can be deceiving. hav previous comment dede posted a list of hotels. i am choosing from them =)

best would be to read those reviews and see the images on tripadvisor.
if u r going to book from agoda, dont use shopback ...
the prices reflected there are much higher ...
difference might be as much as few dollars to 10+ onwards per nite ...

Inhouse hotel I stay there once back in 2012 when it's new. Very good experience. The later trip I book via hotel. I stayed in greenworld Zhongshan and tomorrow hotel before too. Tomorrow hotel good for the location as its beside mrt exit6, hmv. The breakfast coupon u can exchange for twd70 in the 7-11 if u miss breakfast. Greenworld Zhongshan is a bit far out and its beside animate for those animation fans.

Greenworld consider far out? From the map it looks like XMD is just across the street... and there is a MRT entrance somewhere just outside the hotel? Still considering this hotel but held back as read reviews says the toilet design something wrong... will flood the whole toilet floor when showering...

There are many Greenworld hotels, the ximending one, reviews not that good and nearest mrt exit 5 is I think 10-15 mins away.

With couple of old parents, it's far out 🤣🤣.. Atleast 10 to 15 mins from mrt. Yea the design of the tub means the toilet floor will be flooded everytime u take a bath. The toilet design they use are the Japanese style with ass washing function.. 🤣 🤣

No, exit 6 and 1 is the main entrance of ximending, not right outside of greenworld xmd.
