I highly recommend this hostel in Taipei. The location is excellent, walking distance to Ximending, Dihua Old Street, temples, night markets, and public transport (subway, buses and public bikes!).
The staff is the nicest. Nini gave us a very thorough check in, showing us with a map everything we needed to know for a perfect stay.
We stayed in a private room with toilet and it was super comfortable, clean, brand new, with modern design. It has AC, TV, a desk, and enough space for our big luggage. They also provide toiletries and the bathroom has natural light, which I highly appreciate!
In the private room’s floor there is a sitting common area and a kitchen with microwave, fridge, mini bar, where you can get free coffee, tea and drinking water all day.
In main floor, where the reception and the dorms are, there is a bigger common area that truly feels like a home. There you can work comfortably (there are outlets and also a computer to use), prepare a simple meal, or just hang out. There’s also a mini bar and they sell snacks 24/7 and you can also get free hot drinks there. It’s super convenient.
The breakfast is the best for a hostel so far: there are toasts with nutella, peanut butter, jelly, etc but also hard boiled eggs, fried potatoes or chicken nuggets, cereal and milk, orange juice, some days there was fruit. We loved it!
The shared toilets from the dorms are super clean and they provide very cool products for common use, such as micellar water and body cream.
They also provide coin washing machines to do your laundry for a very cheap price!
The hostel is full of very well thought details to make you feel like a special guest. Don’t hesitate to stay here! We...
Read moreI wish every hotel was like this. The moment you step in, you relax.
The hotel has a great location, within walking distance to night markets for awesome food, touristic spots and subway station. Yet it’s on a quiet street besides a beautiful temple. It’s completely calm and you’ll sleep like a baby.
Nini from reception was great. She was warm, informative and had a perfect English. She gave us a map and showed us all the important hotspots nearby.
The hotel has a big and super comfy common area (open 24hs) and a smaller one on another floor. Great wifi. They provide complementary breakfast which consists of coffee or tea, orange juice, fruits, milk and cereal, toasts with a selection of peanut butter, Nutella and jams, chicken nuggets and chips. Some items vary from day to day. It’s super abundant. There’s also free coffee and tea all day long. You can also refill your bottles with cold or hot water.
The room is comfy, clean and bright. Spacious and quiet. There are a lot of details that show that they really care about their guests. The hotel also has a coin-operated laundry. If I come back to Taipei, I would definitely...
Read moreReally loved this hostel. I stayed here for 2 nights, Friday through to Sunday. I checked in late and the instructions of how to access the accomodation and settle in was easy. The accomodation was very considerate, peaceful and quiet. The guests respectful and clean. I felt my belongings were safe in the lockers as I changed to slippers provided in the communal areas. The facilities clean and well maintained and drinks hot/cold available as needed. The next day I checked in and paid and was able to enjoy my stay. The hostel is not close to the MRT stations as what would be convenient. Shops are close by as well as cafes etc. I would stay here again if in the area. A relaxing city stay.
Edit: 14.5.24 Unpacked and remembered I had a brown paper bag in my room that may have looked like rubbish but contained my credit cards and personal information. It also had my wireless headphones. I've had to stop my cards and will have to buy new headphones. It is an inconviniece and a hassle. The bag was put nowhere near a bin as though rubbish. The cards have not been used so I imagine housekeeping...
