Anyone been there? I'm going on business from October 12-19 and need advice. Most of the time I'll be staying on the company dime in the Hyatt near the convention center, but I'll have about two days on my own dime. I need advice on:

• Someplace to stay that is clean, safe, convenient, comfortable, and ideally, inexpensive and interesting. Need not be fancy.
• Not-to-be-missed places to eat
• Not-to-be-missed places to shop
• Not-to-be-missed activities and sights
• Places for excellent bespoke tailoring (I have some leads but always appreciate personal insight)
• Where to find a human kidney.

Any other general advice about Taiwan and Taipei in particularly. This is going to be so much fun.
