Good location. The smell of the hostel was weird, especially the bathroom area. Always. The vibe in the hostel made me very uncomfortable during my stay. I don‘t think I would go back there.

pretty good hostel in the heart of ximen. clean rooms but a bit cramped, privacy curtains included as well as a large locker. only one washer/dryer for the whole hostel and just a very tiny kitchen area. not much of a social vibe when I went but there's still a nice little common area + a great outdoor balcony area. music is a bit loud as others have said but it's not that big of a deal. staff were good and I was happy with my stay. I'd stay again, good place for the price.

Overall for 1 night stay it’s pretty good. I was in Taipei for NYE so didnt really spend a lot of time here but had an ok communal area that people did use showers were pretty good but was lots of hair on the ground. And rooms were fine they were very cold but mattress was comfy they do cram a lot of beds in there and I didn’t have a locker for my bed but for 1 night it was perfectly fine

Friendly staff who upgraded me to better bed. Excellent location and shopping district at Ximenting. Only problem is loud music at night even though it is located at 8th floor. Otherwise enjoyed my stay. Highly recommended

Great place in a fantastic location that is very trendy! The hostel and entire area are very LGBTQIA+ friendly. I would recommend this to people who enjoys a nice atmosphere and staff as well as travelers who are open and love to hang out in the common area.

Place is not super attended by staff. You see people all around in the area kinda noisy. Beds were good though but security is at its lowest, anyone can enter. Pieces of stuff lies everywhere, very messy. Its like your dormitory wayback in college that is not clean. Good location though

La pulizia non era ottima, oltre alle docce sporche e i phon che non funzionavano, il letto era sporco e ho trovato un ragno. Il personale l’ho visto solo una volta, non sono stati molto accoglienti. Dentro faceva freddo, soprattutto nella camera, ho dormito con felpa e piuomone e avevo ancora freddo. In sè la struttura è molto bella e il balconcino super carino!

Staff dull and unfriendly.Not rude, just really disintersted. Hostel staff should be lively, outgoing, and suggestive of activities or local sights to explore. The all day karaoke bar downstairs was pretty annoying if you wanted to sleep in. Everything was very clean though, and there was a cool little viewing deck where you could overlook a bit of the city.

Super central and includes anything you need! The staff playlist was also banging.

위치 좋다. 엘베도 있다. 계단이 좀 더러운데 건물에서 계단을 청소하면 좋겠다. 숙소는 세탁기도 있고 매우 편리하다. 추천한다.

Great location for exploring and shopping and also very close to the metro. The staff are amazing! Super friendly and helpful. I stayed in F dorm single and the bed is a good size. It’s an older build so there’s a limited number of toilets/sinks/showers, but I never had an issue. Still nice to have a toilet/sink in the room jic. The common area is nice to eat, relax, work, and socialize. Plus the balcony is great for when the AC gets too cold for me. Would stay again!

Not a hostel to meet people and socialize. People work, eat and go to bed, I was expecting a bit more from the reviews I’ve read

I stayed there for one night only, and I wish it could have been longer. Really lovely place in a really excellent location. Staff were wonderful, room was comfortable, bathrooms had toiletries -- all was well. High recommend.
