Nice Hostel
This hostel had everything you expected to have, staff was friendly. They even gave out NWD 100 breakfast voucher a day for each person to eat at next door cafe. The breakfast there was good and we ate there every morning.

Clean, great location, above-average hostel!
We are a couple and I'm a business traveler. This is a hostel but definitely a fun and clean one, front desk staff very helpful; gatherings in nicely-decorated common areas, good location (5-min walk from Taipei train station); clean room although a bit small, overall great stay. The breakfast stand was cute, we could get a burrito/ egg pancake thingy there for free! :) Good value for the money!

Location is good, 5mins walk from Taipei Main Station. For a hostel, it’s very clean, especially the beds. I like the fact that all beds have a USB port and curtain, very handy and a bit of privacy.

Convenient location
The hostel is located conveniently within walking distance to Taipei Main and Zhongshan stations, and these 2 stations are linked by a super long underground shopping street. The room and bed were quite clean. However, sharing with others means having to put up with smelly shoes and odd smells, and wished the hostel had provided air fresheners. The room I had faced the main street and the noise from the traffic was loud. Plus point is staff are friendly and willing to help.

simple, bright and comfort
single room 205- comfortable. a bit noisy by the roadside but i always appreciate a good bright window for hostel stay. the noise is easily avoidable by ear plugs provided, good sleep is secure. good spacious common space at kitchen, longue, lab. location is near to th breakfast is mediocre, but it is located near to 四海豆浆大王 which is my favourite Taiwanese breakfast place, open as early as 5.30am. location is good, walkable from Zhongshan Station and Taipei Main Station.
