I did a bit of research and found out most of the forumers booked directly from the hotel itself. They said it's cheaper that way.</em></strong> Hi Jys, i am just wondering why you did not book your taipei hotel with agoda? :)

I wrote you thrice there and it doesn't seem to get across the board. Regarding accommodation, I was thinking of Dorsett Seaview, cos of the price usually advertised, RM250+? But is it really that bad? They promised to be wheelchair accessible, but I've also read on comments the hotel room is not equip with a lot of things as written on their website. Hm.. Hope you don't mind sharing more about the room of Cityview. Is it wide enough for a wheelchair to pass through, especially the bathroom? Thanks yet again! <strong><em>Jys: ya, i received all 3 of your comments (it's being treated as spam comment, hehe) but don't worry, i've already de-spam it. dorsett seaview? is it the one near 'miu gai'? If it is, it looks quite old from the outside, and i did saw some reviews on the forums that some of the rooms are not that clean and smelly. maybe you should do more research and read comments from people who stayed there before. as for citiview, i personally am quite happy with this hotel. their service is good, hotel is very clean and most importantly, it's very very convenient. Hotel rooms in HK are all very small, not much space to walk also (you can see from the photos i took), therefore it's a bit difficult for wheel chair to wheel around. Maybe you should contact the hotel and asked them whether they have any bigger rooms with bigger bathrooms?</em></strong> Hi Jys, thanks for your kind reply on ferry terminal.

So far have narrowed down to those located in tsim sha tsui, kowloon. I'm pretty much a clean freak, so a good clean accommodation is important as it can make or break a trip for me! <strong><em>Jys: this YMCA is clean!! can consider lar..</em></strong> I’m looking through the reviews of hotels.
