Very thoughtful touches that showed the designers or owners have stayed in hostels, like the doors opening quietly and keeping the lockers/bathrooms away from the beds to make it quieter in the dorm rooms. Breakfast is excellent, it’s obviously a gorgeous space, and the staff is so nice. Thanks Derek!

There are many bus lines, convenient stores, restaurants and supermakezs in front of the hostel, which makes the location very convenient. The hostel itself is very clean, organized, spacious and the staff is super friendly and eager to help. The view from the balcony is superb. Really loved this place and would recommend to anyone!

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed in in Taiwan or anywhere else. Rooms and facilities were very clean and comfortable, building had character and charm. Location was convenient as we had to attend an event at the university nearby, and the staff were extremely helpful. Double room was also very affordable for the quality.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Quiet hostel. Exceptional cleanliness and facilities throughout. Certainly the best hostel I have stayed in the last 10 years. Soap, shampoo, hair dryer in the shower. Towel drying rack in the balcony and shoe rack on the outside, free indoor slippers provided, good air conditioning, bedding done by staff, self service laundry, simple breakfast! Exceptional value for money! Can’t get better
