I had a pretty good experience at the restaurant connected to the hotel. The ambiance was reminiscent of a working-class Chinese city, which I found charming and authentic. The service was decent, although communication was a bit tricky due to the server's limited English skills. The food was tasty, especially the dumplings and the gigantic plate of kim chi. Just keep in mind that the flavors were on the milder side, similar to rural Taiwan cuisine, so if you're looking for something spicy, this might not be the place for you.
