Overpriced and underwhelming
Upon arrival the room turned out to not be so clean as there was an empty condom wrapped on the floor. Furthermore, the walls were pretty thin and the other guests and people in the hallways could be heard. You could hear others showering, snoring, talking, etc. The room also included a disappointing breakfast, maybe the worst one I’ve had so far. For the price of the room, I would hope for a much better experience overall, but this is near the bottom of my list.

Renan, San Francisco, CA

Disliked: Amenities
An affordable hotel, but shared bathroom amenities were badly designed. The hotel is in the fourth floor of a big building. The location is convenient, near the train station and buses. There are a lot of businesses around. There is a convenient store nearby. I stayed in a bedroom that had four beds, two in each bunk. The bed containers were of decent size and had a curtain for privacy. The container height was not too short. To use the light and TV at the bed, you need to leave your key card. This is inconvenient when you need to unlock the locker, which is outside the compartments, because you need to scan the key card there. The bedroom also had a shared compartment for the shower and another compartment for the toilet. I think this design is not a good idea if you do not want to disturb your other roommates. I feel a whole separate unit exclusively for shower and toilet would be much, much nicer. Plus that way you could have a mirror and a table to put your stuff on. In any case, I thought the shower and toilet compartments were too cramped. Also, there was no towel. I was lucky I brought my own. There is no place to hang your stuff dry, so be aware. Also, no soap to wash your hands after using the toilet. For the shower, there’s shower gel and shampoo (no conditioner). The hotel atmosphere within the room hallway is dark, with very low lighting. I feel like it could be brighter. Sharing the room with others could take you out of your comfort zone, especially since

Convenient location away from the crowd
Close to some swanky bistros, Shin Yeh restaurant, the nightlife scene, and Zhongxiao Fuxing train station–which can take you straight to XMD or Raohe night market in under 20 mins. The Double Room is gorgeous, clean and looks nothing like part of a hostel. Beds are super comfy. Overall a pleasant stay and highly recommended.

Overall for the price per night and in comparison with other hostels, this place isn’t bad at all. The bunk beds have a lot of ceiling space but my main issue was that the shower and toilet are integrated to the room with the 8 bunk beds... not so private in that sense! Otherwise great location, friendly staff, it’s a fair deal.

The decor is pleasant and the shower and bathroom is ensuite for the dorm beds. That's a plus and a minus. If your bed is right beside the bathroom, then you might get disturbed by the noise from the flowing water in the pipe. The shelves at the end of the bed provide extra storage space and the bed allows for privacy. It didn't bother me that there are no windows because it means that the room is quieter. The air conditioning might be too strong for some people but it keeps the room well ventilated. Do note that the shower and toilet are very compact. Also, the mrt is very nearby and there are numerous food options around the vicinity. Overall a good stay and I am likely to stay here again.

Booked a room with double bed and park view. Strong humidity and old smell when entering the room. Strange smell of the towels (like it has been washed with white vinegar). The main ventilation of the room is very noisy and cannot be turned off, fortunately we had some earplugs with us. McDonald breakfast. For the same price, there are much better hotels in Taipei.

We rented a deluxe room , the room is spacious for 2 , but unfortunately the room does not came with heater, air con temperature cant be adjusted to our preference as well, breakfast choices are limited. the room seems to be cleaned half way on our 2nd day of stay, feedback to the reception and the hotel stuffs attended immediately. good job! The hotel is near to the zhongxiao fu xing mrt exit, just within 5 minutes walking distance, if you rather prefer a quite place, this could be your choice.

A women only dorm but not a woman only shower !!
The most (badly) surprising is the shared mix shower...no privacy at all. My bunk bed has a curtain gap right over the bathroom door so I get the light whenever someone opens the door which gave me a very bad sleep. The room is nice and clean but the shower/bathroom lacks of cleaning. And impossible to get the wifi connection.

I got to the hostel around 2:30 AM in the morning and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. I was in a shared backpacker's room and space/bedding was decent enough to get a good night's sleep. The shared washrooms were fairly clean. I opted to get the breakfast and it was decent enough value for NT 60. Would recommend for a no-nonsense, no bells and whistle stay in Taiwan!

Unexpectedly very nice room in a backpacker hostel
Their deluxe room is unexpectedly spacious, clean and well equipped with good location. Well, you may not like it from the outside as the building and the elevators are pretty old, but once you step into their floor, you will definitely feel good from their reception, common area, corridor to their rooms. A certainly recommended hostel with a very reasonable price.

Great Hotel for a Great Price
Stayed in the deluxe room for 12 nights during my stay. Nice spacious room with high ceilings made it a great, comfortable stay. Bathrooms were equipped with Japanese toilet seats (bidet), which was a great touch. Large bed was actually two smaller mattresses together, but that's fine. Bed slept pretty well. Room was very clean when first arrived and cleaned thoroughly each time housekeeping was requested. Only minor downsides to the room are that the deluxe rooms are separated by a door (allowing room to room access), however not very sound proof so you can usually hear some conversation or the shower running on the other side. Also, default settings on the thermostat run very cold so remember to adjust accordingly. Lastly, the shower water temp is a bit fickle. Didn't really use the other hotel amenities, but a traditional Taiwanese breakfast was included. Only ate it once as it's a very simple breakfast. Lots of good and cheap food options minutes walk from the hotel anyway.

Lives up to its name. More like a Hotel
Great room and smooth check-in/out. Fancy Japanese toilet. Toiletries complete and replenished daily. Laundry is 40NTD per wash, 6 mins of dryer time per 10 yuan. Front desk will give you small change. Only downside is if your neighbour has their doorbell rung, it sounds like your own is ringing and will wake you up. Popular Japanese Udon place next door and beef noodle stall behind at night. 4 mins walk from exit 2 of Zhongxiao Fuxing MRT. Just cross the road and walk past the Kao Chi restaurant, it's the next block of office building on the 4th floor, with a playground next to it.

This place is nice and clean but..
This place is nice and clean but I just had really bad.. bad experience here on the day I checked out. If anyone who booked this hotel is planning on doing their laundry here, I want to stop you. Did my laundry here before I check out but ended up throwing some of my clothes away due to their poor maintance of their laundry machine. Clothes were worth 120ish total. Not much but my perfectly new clothes, pants and towel got orange stains after I did my laundry here... Had to ask my bf to come over to translate since not many employees here speak English fluently. Asked the front desk and talked to the boss and nothing in return. All I hear was just bunch of excuses trying to get away. Oh, but they gave me $50 NT coins so I can rewash my clothes. Did a bit of research why my clothes stained after I moved to different hotel and something to do with rust inside the washing machine.. Still not happy with how they resolved with this situation.
