Staff is nice in general, especially a female staff looks cheerful. Just one to two minutes walk to nearest metro, which make it easy access to the express train to airport. Around three minutes walk to the nearest night market. Bed is fine. I also share a photo taken at a corner of the hostel lobby, with lots of travel info.

The hostel is inside a building which looks quite old. But once you locate it, it is easy to find. As only shower is provided in my private room, with no shower curtain, water just spread around on the bathroom floor while bathing. It is better with curtain.

The hostel is located really close to the MRT station, which makes it a really good choice. I stayed in a private room and I was so pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the bed was. There is a nice view from the room and a really nice common area that feels welcoming and cosy. I found the soundproofing to be really good because I couldn't hear anyone while inside my room - something I have struggled with a lot in Taipei.

It was a little bit hard to find the building at first so I had to look at some videos posted by previous guests on Google maps to find it.

It’s very close to MRT station when you travel from the airport, although the closet exit to the hostel doesn’t have elevator, so only suitable for those without heavy luggage. The exit with elevator is not too far from the hostel, maybe the hostel can suggest alternative route. It’s comfortable enough & has everything you need.

It’s very noisy when you keep window open as it’s in such a busy location. I guess it’s because I live in a quiet place & not used to big cities. It made me not wanting to return to Taipei at the end of my trip. But if you are used to big city, then it shouldn’t bother you.

I work remotely so I choose accommodations on the basis of how comfortable they seem for me to sit around with my computer, how good I think the Internet connection will be, etc. I was surprised to find a place like this hostel, and for such as a price, as it almost feel like a free co-working space (comfortable, well lit, with views). In addition, it's located right in the city center (very close both to the train station and to a subway connection with Taoyuan airport), it's comfortable, it's good value for money, and the staff were all helpful and friendly. One of the best hostels I've been to in a long time, hands down. Very strongly recommended, especially if you are a person who needs to spend sometime working or doing anything with a computer (then it's just a no-brainer).

Really friendly staff, nice that they offered free toothbrush, i loved the common space with the fun variety of seating and huge window with view of the downtown. in the shared hostel rooms the beds have curtains for more privacy, i was on a top bunk that had a little window. there is a lamp and outlet in each bunk. they provide slippers for walking around the hostel

Room i stayed in was a tiny bit smelly because the bathroom was in there but that's ok because there's nothing they could have done about that anyway. Also maybe would have liked more shelves or hooks to put things in the bathroom when taking a shower (putting my toiletries or clothes so they don't get wet)

The staff is nice and careful, they gave me a lot of necessary information. The dorm is large and clean. The location is minute-away from Taipei Main station, so we can easily go to almost everywhere. Sharing area is large with full of needed equipment.

The hostel’s entrance is hard to find for the first time guest. I think the instruction to hotel should name the exit Y22 or Y19 specifically, because when i ask locals about Exit 22 (or 19) nobody knows that. Maybe it’s difficult for people first time come to Taipei like us.

Great location, clean and comfortable rooms and a nice communal area. Also had a good kitchen and some free tea seemed to be provided. I got a private room and felt it was good value midweek, but on the weekends it shot up. Guess that’s normal for a big city. Staff were super friendly as well.

No complaints really - could definitely hear a bit of noise in the room from other rooms, but not excessively and nothing some earplugs didn’t block out.

Location was great - it’s near Taipei station which makes it easy to get around, especially to places like Taoyuan airport. Room was fairly basic and abit dated but clean. Common areas are more modern and gives good vibes. We appreciated that you can store luggage before or after your stay for no extra cost.

The main entrance of the building is closed after 8pm so you have to find your way to the back entrance

Great location near Taipei Main. The instructions provided made it easy to find. Room was large enough for the whole family and was totally quiet from outside noises. Shower was clean with good pressure and temperature.

The place is a little worn, as you might expect from a hostel but no problems at all with this place. We didn't use the washer/dryer or kitchen facilities but all seemed to be in good working order.

The location is just perfect. Close to Main station but also Beimen, 7-11 nearby, snacks downstairs. I loved the common area, it’s very spacious and has great views as youre on a 9th floor. Free earplugs, free water to refill. The room was really spacious, enough room to put my stuff around and to walk around, I really liked that the bathroom was inside the female dorm too so you don’t have to go through any outside hallway to and from the shower - big plus, makes things so much easier!

It’s not the newest so don’t expect super modern new place, but honestly it has everything you need and is a great value for money.
