Cho Hotel is in a centralized location with many walkable night markets nearby. It's also a short walk away from the train stations so it's super easy to get around town easily. The free snacks and drinks really helped when I got back super late and needed something small to nibble on like a good bowl of instant ramen or chips. Who would have thought Asparagus Juice tasted better than it sounds haha...there's also a 24-hour braised pork restaurant around the corner I had to visit many times since it was so good!
