26/03/2007: "HOTEL NEON SIGN .......1960's flavour"

The hotel foyer has been used in detective movies as a location.
Just like an old RKO movie. It may also be a relic from the Vietnam undeclared WAR era (pre 1975) when US troops on R&R (rest and recreation) visited Taipei, Hong Kong and Sydney etc for their 5 days of fun.
Located near Taipei Main Station are plenty of budget hotels for less than AUS$40 per night. Taipei is not as cheap as China but far safer. Newspapers say police are trigger happy toward criminals and use plenty of bullets in American-style shoot-outs.
