Very good location!
I have stayed here many times and I really enjoyed the location. The staff working here is nice but may not be available 24-hour a day. It will be a bit difficult if you don't speak/understand mandarin.

A mosquito-infested dump, unsafe
Horrible. Electric outlets where broken off and bare cables visible. Mosquito infested. It is NOT REALLY A HOTEL, some apartment that somebody rents out. No response from hotel when I asked for the unsafe electricity plug to be fixed.

Convenience
Though friendly staff, no full time staff on location. Contact through online messenger. Facilities include washer, dehumidifier, racks to do laundry. The walls are thin, you may hear your neighbors. Cleanliness, passable, but sometimes grossed by the dirty headboards and questionable bed frame that holds the mattress. Feels cramped. Convenient location next to blue and brown line mrt. I'd appreciate if the place was labeled corectly . Not comfortable, room occasionally smells of something damp like other reviewers mentioned. normally woke up with itching bump.

Not recommended, bad service and expensive rate
Bad service, room is dim, has cockroach and provided dirty towel stained with lipstick and hair from previous tenant. When I requested for a change of towel, the old man who manned a desk said they do not provide bath towel to single guest, I have to use the 2 small hand towels even though it's dirty. Only when I insisted for a refund then he called the owner and they agreed to change a room for me.

Sogohouse - Hard to Find - Good Value
Strange hotel. No key to enter building and weird instructions to find electronic key in mailbox. Thought I was locked out of the building and would sleep on the street. There is really no front desk and no attendant. More like an a tiny one room apartment. Also, very hard to find. But, price is REALLY cheap, and once you find it, the location is superb with lots of great restaurants and nearby shopping.

Too much for too little
For the amount I paid, I was expecting a nicer looking hotel, but it ended up feeling more like a hostel. We got a 4 person room, which made the room have little to no space. They had a full bed with two portable beds on the side. My friends and I barely had space to place our luggage, get dressed, and move about without bumping into something. We also had flies in our room, which is a first. We closed the windows, and attempted to keep the bathroom door closed but they would still get in.

decent stay, convenient location
The experience with staff is great. Price is decent at a convenient location. Very thoughtful to provide all you need in the room. Not only with A/C, there is a fan, dehumidifier, something to keep the bugs away and also everything else you expect from a decent hotel.
