Taipei Hostellit

Plussat: It is close to MRT Beimen station and not too far from main station as well. Staff was very nice and helpful, room and bedsheets clean

Miinukset: Very cold. I was shaking all the time. And if you need towel - you need to pay 50 TWD for rent, which I can understand as this is hostel, but for visitors renting private room I would expect free towel. What is also strange is that this hostel asks to take off bedsheets and drop in the laundry basket when you check out - cleaning should be part of the fee, to my view, so I would expect housekeepers to take care of the bedsheets. And even in private rooms they do not allow to pack/unpack baggage after 22.30. This rule makes sense for shared rooms, but should not be the case for private room

Plussat: I stayed in this hostel twice during my trip in Taiwan. Both stays were really great! My room on the 7th floor was very nice and clean. The hostel is located on a quiet street, so there is no traffic noice, which I appreciated. The staff is friendly and helpful, and I could store my luggage safely in the hostel for 10 days. I can recommend this place to anyone, thank you!

Plussat: Last time I stayed in private room in this hostel, and in my booking review mentioned it was very cold. When I was back to this hostel in few days (after my trip on the east cost), I booked a bed in mixed room and they gave me a bed far from AC, so I do not get cold. It am impressed that they took into consideration my feedback! Also staff was very nice and helpful: explained me well on the night bus to the airport, helped with laundry. Thank you Team!

Plussat: Like at home

Miinukset: To open

Plussat: The bedroom was really clean and the bed comfortable. All the necessary utilities and the floor were I stayed offered a common space with balcony and equipped kitchen. Staff people are nice and helpful. The common room at the second floor is great as well. The hostel is not far from one the exit of the Taipei Main Station, just have to find the good one.

Miinukset: The breakfast is simple. To start a long journey I am always having a good breakfast and this one was not really good. You have bread to toast but no butter. No chocolate to put in the milk as well.

Plussat: Henkilökunta oli erittäin avulias. Paikka oli siisti ja erittäin hyvällä sijainnilla, lähellä metroasemaa, josta pääsi myös lentokentälle.

Miinukset: Aamiainen oli melko suppea ja wifi toimi huoneissa vähän vaihtelevasti.

Plussat: Super friendly and helpful staff. Location is great, close to the Taipei Main Station and Ningxia night market. Room was small but clean and comfortable.

Plussat: Clean rooms and comfy beds! Awesome location!

Miinukset: No lift on first walk.

Plussat: Simple but they provide all the basic. Water pressure is good. Love it.

Miinukset: More washer and dryer. Need to wait. Provide Hair dryer like those use in hair salon. Can dry faster. Strong smell of breakfast in the 5th floor. No tissue paper on fifth floor bathroom.

Plussat: breakfast was super amazing wow I didn't expect that

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: It's great hostel in Taipei, Good decorated, all staff and guest was friendly, cozy, comfy and cleanness. Have a common space for breakfast, play game, talkative, exchanged experience and etc. In my opinion i think a little bit far from Ximen street but easy to walk in 5-10 mins.

Miinukset: A litlle bit far from Ximen street

Plussat: Well thought through design of the bed, bathroom amenities and staff.

Miinukset: the wall is thin and you can hear people talking on the corridor and key card access.

Plussat: cleanliness.

Miinukset: Alot of rules that includes no eating or drinking in room. No outdoor shoes in other premises other than the living room. All the strict house rules created alot of hassels and made the stay super uncomfortable. Hostel serves as well very very basic breakfast. Distance to station is far. Communication between hostel and booking.com is inaccurate. Asked for very early check-in, hostel front desk replied no problem but they denied my early check in upon arrival till I showed my email confirmation then they apologised they "missed out" my requests. Due to that, I waited for almost 5 hours for the check in ( I arrived at 8am and was super exhausted from an early flight). Instead of checking in my requested 4 female dorms, they gave a 10 beds dorm which was significantly different in prices. Again, I showed my email and they insisted booking.com did not give the preferences of which female dorms i can book. In my opinion, thats not my problem. It has to be the communication between booking.com and the hostel itself to be more specific to travellers to prevent unhappy outcome like what i encountered. after several hours of waiting and debating with evidences on my phone, they finally checked us in. Very inefficient. Pricing is also one of the most expensive stay in Taiwan which is comparable to hotel. I will not stay there ever again. Never.

Plussat: the staff was very kind. and good english speaker she helped me to ride a taxi with her phone And clean

Miinukset: For me it was quite far from the station.

Plussat: Location is good but noisy.

Miinukset: Price too high, breakfast not much choice.

Plussat: The bed is superb comfortable & the staff ( Lynny) is awesome and helpful

Plussat: Clean place Comfortable beds Bathrooms were equipped with q-tips and bath mats

Plussat: Besides that there were great facilities (awesome waterpressure /temp in the shower as well as heaps of hairdryers). Ample luggage space but most of all really cool interiors, great beds and pillows. Would recommend for location and price.

Miinukset: There was a huge huge wait up for the bathrooms (45min plus) A little noisier than the average hostel, just from big tour groups. If you're a super light sleeper maybe choose something else.

Plussat: Great location

Miinukset: The staff is not friendly

Plussat: Great location

Miinukset: The front desk staff is not friendly

Plussat: If you arrive before 3 PM, you can leave your baggage and belongings at the front desk for free. You can also request to use the shower room, too. Moreover, the staff is nice! They provided really excellent services.

Miinukset: I planned to pay the fee using my debit card but they couldn't take MasterCard at that moment due to the card reader issue. Fortunately, I and my friend had enough cash to pay. Haha. We were just lucky.

Plussat: The whole design is really cool. It looks like a space shuttle or something. The hostel is located in the basement so there is no day light but you don't feel it this way. It's really convenient and cool place. Next time when I am in Taipei I will stay there again.

Miinukset: It's really good that you pay attention to security and stuff but accessing all the rooms with your key cards was a bit annoying for me. I understand the sleeping area and all but access for the toilet with a key I think is a bit too much.

Plussat: The location was a best part of our trip! Easy to use metro, quite near Taipei Main Station. Cool design inside, secure rooms, good shower. Excellent choice for this price, feels like a cozy shelter. They have a fridge, so you can basically buy some food for breakfast in Seven-Eleven and put it into a fridge, warm it up with microwave oven and enjoy the morning.

Miinukset: Some of the lockers were really loud by closing, so you can instantly wake up for nothing. For example, my locker was pretty good and silent, but in order to lock the locker of my friend you have to push so hard. We used mixed dorm, C7. If you have an opportunity, please find a way to make it more quiet :) Or maybe there is a way to make it silent too, we didn't found.

Plussat: Beds were comfortable, hostel was quiet, lockers are big. Location is also convenient. Overall, very good, dependable and reliable hostel with a good value.

Miinukset: Kitchen was a little dirty.

Plussat: Great service best staff

Miinukset: Little noise outside balcony

Plussat: Near the train station from airport Good price and kind staff Good public place to overview the city! (Cause it is on 9th floor. )

Plussat: Breakfast was good (not only toast and jam as elsewhere)

Plussat: The location is great The main and common room really well design and modern. We have a nice view over other houses.

Miinukset: I didn't like the dormitory room at all, I can understand to leave some hole in the wall but not everywhere even with the painting on it it didn't look clean. The breakfast didn't have any milk or cereals at all, I am from UK and I really eeded it in the morning.
