Because our luggage room is not large and we need to allow guests to store their luggage smoothly, just like you did when you checked in, you may not be able to put your luggage in the luggage room when you check out.Sorry for causing trouble to you

There are trash boxes in the lobby but all are too small and easily filled up and sometimes spilt over. I recommend the owner to change them to bigger ones.

Stayed here for 1 night. Accommodation does not come with towel included. One will have to pay a fee to use their towels. Shower pressure was good with hot water. but the cubicle is rather small. Basins could be cleaner. Toilet is not in the hostel itself, but it is just a few minutes walk from the back door of the hostel. There is no toilet paper in the toilets. One will have to take the toilet paper in advance in the hostel before heading to the toilet. Location is good. It is about a 10 mins (or less) to Taoyuan Airport MRT and Ximending, and about a 15 mins walk to Taipei Main Station. Room was comfortable enough with adequate aircon. However, there was 1 or 2 inconsiderate occupiers during my stay who turn on the room lights and left the room with out turning them off. Each bunk is equipped with its own private light, so I did not see the reason why they would need to turn on the room light. In my room, it seems that half of them are long term stayers, but that did not affect my stay. Would I stay here again? Probably not. But if I am unable to find another accommodation, I may consider it again.

I had to keep climbing up to a second level bed. I am 78 years old. In general, the staff are helpful. The price is okay. The area does have food, not the greatest. The distance to major transportation is fine.

Well, there's nothing wrong given what I paid for. It's a hostel after all. I gave it 4 instead of 5 because the space in my opinion is quite small, and it's still quite hot around the entire area (except for the sleeping space). It was sort of an inconvenience how I had to bring toilet paper before going into the bathroom. Otherwise, everything was great! Perfect for what I paid for, and would definitely come again if I'm on a budget.

The location of the hotel is good, just 8 minutes away from XiMenDing. The room is really dark, even though there is a lamp beside each bed. What bothers me most is there are no safebox to keep my valuables or even a curtain for privacy. The toilet is about 1 min away from the room so make sure you go before you go back to your room, it can be a little annoying. Overall an okay experience staying in the hostel

Basically you won't expect much with such an attracting price, everything is self-serviced, including security of your own belongings. Anyway, I had four nights of nice sleep there.

The staff was usually nice,but the toilets were out of the premises and used by some other out side people also, so there was always shortage of toilet papers and lack of cleanness in the toilets.

I needed a cheap and yet secure place to stay on the way back to Japan from years of living in Canada, which means a tons of properties packed in luggage. They had this luggage room to keep them securely during my stay, everything recorded on cctv. So I could relax enjoy every moment in Taipei. What I didn’t like was that I needed to take the card key to every each time I go to using bathroom or shower or drinking a water.
