Oh ok, thanks for reply.

I've already bought the ticket so will be there no matter what. I am thinking about to bring RM8k - RM9k including accommodation for TWO person, both of us like to shop on apparel and loves good food. Hopefully it's enough for us to spend.
*
WOW! Tat's lot...for 2 person we spend RM3500 --- food,hotels & transportation. Shopping is really not cheap in Taiwan especially apparel compare to HK & BKK.So for shopping we din really do much after we went to wufenpu, is nothing to shout abt and all clothes from China.

anyone can recoment cheap taichung hotel / hostel near fengjia night market?

Eiffel Tower Hostel . I paid for TWD2400 for family room - 4 pax. Very clean. Got wifi in d room.Walking distance to Feng Jia mkt. Is pretty new. Check out the review n photos on tripadvisor http://www.tripadvisor.com.my/Hotel_Review...ng.html(exactly d same). However bathroom is transparent - yes is glass however is covered with shower curtain if u r ok. Got coffee & tea making facilities. This is no fancy 5 star hotel.Just basic but sufficient as long as is clean

Hi all,

Would like to ask those who have just recently gone to Taipei which hotels / homestay in XMD area is good to stay in?
Wondering whether Taipei York Room A looks the same as the photos posted on the website or Go To Sleep Hankou hotel is better? Appreciate some advice. thanks.

U can try http://one2staytaipei.blogspot.com/ . Was staying here recently. Location is good.Near XiMen MRT exit which just no more than 20 steps away. Located on the 3rd floor which got 9 unit only. Security good.Wifi available. Foof and shopping oso very convenient. Rooms are clean with attached bathroom. Paid for Standard Double Big Room Queen size double bed/ Private Bathroom TWD 1300 . when u check in they will also give u a MRT map and also places for good food within walking distance ard XiMending

BTW, must pay deposit. You can pay thru pay pal even though u dont have an account. Just pay with yr Credit card. Must book early or else snap up very fast

And they have another one call good9stay http://good9stay.okgo.tw/.

mpeg cash?
I have Maybank debit card (MasterCard Platinum Debit) and OCBC Malaysia ATM Card, can use both?
*
Why dont u check with both banks n see...what r the transaction fees involve whn u use them while in overseas.Then u decide which card to use. I know the fact CIMB ATM card can be used in BKK without any transaction charge should u withdraw money via CIMB Thai. But if u withdraw thru other Thai Bank ATM machine there will be a fees imposed for each withdrawal

Actually is around the same price i got from others but just feel asking him to just send us to Taichung from Taipei is expensive. He quoted NT3,500 just to send us from XMD to Taichung. Just wondering if this is usual rate.
*
Umm...m not too sure abt jz sending to Taichung.I hired him for tour around as well.Is no pt jz sending cos u can jz take d hsr than cheaper lor. u got to remember tat jz sending then they go back to Taipei empty cAr mah. Might as well use him for yr entire trip to go ard n he can oso take u to SML or hualien.Along d way go to hehuan mt,puli n nantou.N u dun hv to worry wat transport to use to go here n there.n also ur luggage. N again u hv to ..sort out going back to Taipei.Well..up to u to decide.
