Yes. You can write to our official LINE account in Chinese, English, Japanese or Korean, or email us at hellohouse2017@gmail.com.

Q:Can we leave luggage before check-in or after check-out?

We do not keep luggage before check-in or after check-out. If you arrive early or want to keep sightseeing after check-out, use the paid MRT lockers: Yanchengpu Station (about a 7-minute walk) has large lockers that fit big suitcases on B1 near Exits 1 and 2, about NT$20 per hour; Formosa Boulevard Station, where you change lines from the high-speed rail or the airport, has the most lockers. Numbers and prices are as posted at the station.

Taiwan uses 110V and flat two-pin Type A sockets (the same as Japan and the US). Dual-voltage devices can be plugged in directly; devices with other plugs need an adapter.
