There's a New Sheriff in Town

Elizabeth picked this hotel in Taipei and it is (1) fabulous, and (2) a great value at about $130 a night. Clean, new and stylin'. I love this place! I have a challenger.

This is the Swiio Hotel Daan. Fantastic location, and if you take a look at the toilet, you'll see it's a Kohler product, but has all the glamour of the Toto deluxe models.  It's actually much nice looking (basically, it has the classic Kohler hatbox base).  The room is also very large (not pictured here - just take our word for it).  Oh, and this must be a new thing.  Everything in the minibar is free.  Granted they have just one beer, but they have sparkling waters, chips, noodles, nuts, other soft drinks and juices in addition to a nice nespresso-style coffee and fresh tea leaves.  We're so easy to please!
