Unbelievable JJ Double Room 312 Taichung: Your Dream Stay Awaits!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the rollercoaster that is Unbelievable JJ Double Room 312 Taichung: Your Dream Stay Awaits!… or at least that's what the brochure says. And, honestly? After a bit of a chaotic, beautiful, and occasionally slightly stressful stay, I might just agree.
Let’s get this show on the road and see if JJ lives up to the hype, shall we?
First Impressions & The Big Picture: Because, Honey, Life Isn't Perfect, And Neither Are Hotels (But That’s Okay!)
Right off the bat, "Unbelievable JJ" has a certain… charm. You know? It's not your sterile, clinical, identical-every-room-looks-the-same hotel. There’s a vibe. Not always a cohesive one, mind you. Think a slightly crazed artist’s loft meets… well, a hotel. And that includes the little imperfections that make it real.
The website practically screams "Luxury!" and "Modern!" and sure, it tries. But the devil, and the delightful chaos, is in the details.
Accessibility: A Mixed Bag – Proceed With Caution… and a Phone Call!
Okay, let's be real here. The “Unbelievable” part might be pushing it a little when it comes to complete accessibility. While they mention facilities for disabled guests, I'm not seeing a dedicated wheelchair accessibility report.
I highly recommend calling them before you book if absolute wheelchair accessibility is your non-negotiable. They could be stellar, they might not be, but transparency is key.
Wheelchair Accessible: The website only mentions facilities, so call before you go.
Getting Around: Fueling Up The Adventure.
- Airport transfer: They offer it! A definite plus, especially after a long flight.
- Car park [free of charge] & Car park [on-site]: HUGE. Parking in Taichung can be a nightmare, so this is a major win.
- Car power charging station: Brilliant! Eco-friendly travelers, take note.

- A la carte in restaurant: Fine dining, potentially?

- Breakfast [buffet]: Gotta love a good buffet, even with the slight chance of questionable breakfast sausage.
- Coffee/tea in restaurant, Coffee shop: Essentials. Caffeine fixes are mandatory.
- Happy hour: Sold.

- Room service [24-hour]: Brilliant for those late-night cravings or early morning… ahem… recovery.
- Snack bar: The temptation is real.
- Vegetarian restaurant: Bravo for options! Vegans, I suggest inquiring about menus.
The Foodie Lowdown: The Buffet and the Bliss
So, the buffet… It wasn't Michelin-starred, mind you, but it was substantial. And fresh. The Asian breakfast? Spot on. The dim sum? Divine. And the coffee? Surprisingly good.
I tried the Western breakfast one day. It was… adequate. Let's leave it at that. But the ambiance of the restaurant was delightful. Bright. Airy. And no judgement from the staff when I went back for seconds… and thirds. I’m not proud. I’m full.
Ways To Relax: From Pampering to Poolside Bliss (with a Side of Potential Overstimulation)
This is where Unbelievable JJ delivers. Seriously.
- Body scrub, Body wrap, Massage, Spa, Spa/sauna, Steamroom: Jackpot.
- Fitness center, Gym/fitness: For those of you with more willpower than me.
- Pool with view, Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor]: That pool… chef's kiss. The view was breathtaking, even if the crowds were a bit daunting at peak times.
Confession Time: The Spa Experience – Worth Every Penny (and a Little Bit of Anxiety!)
Okay, the spa. I indulged. I had to. The massage? Incredible, a firm hand that worked out all the knots from my flight and general life stress. The sauna? Ahhhh… pure bliss. The steamroom? Slightly terrifying at first (I’m claustrophobic, sue me!) but ultimately relaxing.
Cleanliness and Safety: A Solid Effort, But Always Double-Check

Room 312 Specifics: The Good, The Bad, & The Slightly… Odd.
Room 312… It was spacious. It was clean. The bed? Divine. The view? Actually pretty darn good.
But… there were a few hiccups. The air conditioning was a little temperamental. One night, it felt like I was sleeping in an icebox, the next, I was practically melting! And the Wi-Fi. Good, but not great.
The Quirks, The Charming Imperfections… And That Mirror…
There was this massive mirror in the room. Seriously, you felt like you were living in a disco ball. At first, I found it slightly unsettling, but then I started taking selfies. I also lost my mind when I realised the bathroom sink had a built in speaker. I blasted my favorite tunes, and it was… glorious.
Things to Do and Explore: Beyond the Hotel Walls
- Things to do: Well. They don’t list anything. Time to be a tourist.

- Food delivery, Gift/souvenir shop, Luggage storage: Super helpful stuff if you don't want to spend ages finding stores.
For the Kids:
- Babysitting service, Family/child friendly, Kids facilities, Kids meal: Definitely family friendly, which made me slightly jealous.
My Verdict? Unbelievable… Mostly.
Unbelievable JJ Double Room 312 Taichung isn't perfect. It’s got its quirks. The air conditioning is a monster, the WiFi sometimes is unreliable, and the general smoothness of things is a bit… ahem… inconsistent. But the staff are lovely, the food is fantastic (especially the Asian breakfast!), the spa is worth its weight in gold, and the pool is pure magic.

Escape to Paradise: Egina Hotel, Bogotá's Hidden GemOkay, buckle up buttercups, because this ain't your grandma's itinerary. We're going to JJ Double room 312 in Taichung, Taiwan, and we're going to do it messy. Prepare for a trip that's less "smooth sailing" and more "slightly-unhinged but ultimately memorable."
Day 1: Arrival and the Great Bubble Tea Quest (and Immediate Regret)
- 1:00 PM - Arrival at Taichung International Airport (RMQ). Okay, first hurdle: getting through customs. I swear, the Taiwanese customs officers are intense. I felt like I was being judged for my entire life. Finally, freedom! Found a taxi. Driver smokes like a chimney in the back; classic.
- 2:00 PM - Check-in at JJ Double Room 312. Oh. My. God. This place is… cozy. By "cozy," I mean "small." By "small," I mean "I hope I don't accidentally elbow myself in the face in the middle of the night." But the bed looks comfy, and the air conditioning works, so I'm good. The real problem? The curtains. They're that sheer, gauzy kind that lets the blazing afternoon sun directly into the room. I’m already planning my revenge on whoever designed these.
- 3:00 PM - Bubble Tea! (The Only Reason I'm Here). The mission: Find the Legendary Chun Shui Tang. Picture yourself, sweat beading on your forehead, eyes darting around like a caffeinated squirrel, desperate for the holy grail. I found it! I got the original, the one they invented. And… it was a bit underwhelming, if I'm being honest. Don't kill me, Taiwan. Maybe I was expecting too much.
- 4:00 PM - Food Stall Hell and Triumph. Wandered into the night market. SO. MUCH. FOOD. The smells alone could make a person gain five pounds. I made a bold move and tried a stall selling… something. Still not entirely sure what it was, but it was deep-fried, slightly spicy, and tasted like pure, unadulterated joy. Score! Now, just need to find a toilet…
- 6:00 PM - Attempted Relaxation/Netflix in Small Room. So, I thought I could just chill! But the wifi is about as strong as my ability to resist a second helping of fried mystery meat. Now, my mood isn't so great… What was I thinking to plan this trip alone…
Day 2: Temples, Temples, and a Dose of Existential Dread.
- 9:00 AM - Breakfast Fail. The "complimentary" breakfast at the hotel is… well, it exists. Pretty sure the bread is older than I am. Found a 7-Eleven down the road. The onigiri (rice balls) are a lifesaver. Praise be to the convenience store gods.
- 10:00 AM - Wenwu Temple. Okay, this place is stunning. The architecture is breathtaking, and the air smells like incense and… something else I can't quite place. I got lost in the sheer beauty. I got a little choked up!
- 12:00 PM - Sun Moon Lake. The lake itself is pretty, sure but the boat ride was just a sea of people. Trying to snap a good photo? Forget it. You’re battling grandmas with selfie sticks every freaking second.
- 2:00 PM - Lunch Debacle. Decided to be adventurous. Found a little place serving Taiwanese noodles. The menu was entirely in Chinese, so I just pointed and hoped for the best. Turns out, I ordered something with a particularly pungent (and not in a good way!) smell. I took two bites. My stomach is revolting. I think my soul just did too.
- 3:00 PM - Back to the Room. Seriously, the sun is coming through the curtains. I’m starting to think they did it on purpose!
- 4:00 PM - The Room Re-Evaluation. Room 312 is a lot. It’s not just a room; it’s a character in this whole travel saga. I think I’m starting to love it! Its quirky flaws are now its charms.
- 6:00 PM - Night Market Round Two (and Redemption). Went back to the night market. This time I was ready. Had some spicy tofu (delicious!), some seriously good dumplings, and a mango shaved ice that made me forget all my previously bad decisions. This night market is a masterpiece!
Day 3: Art, Coffee, and a Sad Farewell.
- 9:00 AM - Waking up and the curtains are still letting the sun in. I feel like I’m some sort of solar panel. At least I feel alright.
- 10:00 AM - Painted Wall Art District. This area is a visual explosion! So many colorful murals and street art. I spent like an hour just wandering around, taking photos and feeling inspired. It’s like the city itself is trying to make everything beautiful.
- 12:00 PM - Coffee Time. Found a little coffee shop with fantastic coffee and even better people watching. I sat there, people watching and doing nothing and feeling like I was doing everything.
- 2:00 PM - Packing and Sadness. Ugh, time to pack. Leaving Room 312 feels like saying goodbye to a slightly annoying, but ultimately endearing, friend. I kind of, maybe, developed some Stockholm syndrome for the place.
- 3:00 PM - One Last Bubble Tea. One last desperate attempt to recapture the magic. This time, I had a different place. Still not convinced. It’s okay.
- 4:00 PM - Departure. Okay, Taichung. You’ve been… challenging. But also, beautiful, delicious, and full of surprises. I’ll miss the night markets, The warmth, and the sheer vibe of this place. I'll be taking a piece of it with me, even if it’s just the lingering smell of fried food.
The End (of Phase One)
