The location is walkable from Tainan Train Station (but suggest to get a cab ride if you have big luggages with you). Both exterior & interior of the hostel are very well designed and stylish. Spacious room for 4pax with the ability to open up everyone's luggage at the same time. There is common pantry for guests to use. Only suggestion is to have more hooks in the bathroom to hang clothes. :)

Decent hostel except not soundproof

Facilities, cleanliness and convenience are absolutely amazing. However the only downside is the walls are not soundproof, having noises from the streets till midnight.

因颱風關係舍服人員提前下班，所以提前網上辦好我們的登記，因此宿舍升級我們房間大D，但我們很晚(約9點半左右)才入住。 到達才知出入均要換鞋，宿舍話係保持清潔關係(我理解)，但行理箱卻可以攜帶上落(不理解)，而鞋櫃是同室兩人同用一個，鞋櫃又太細根本放不下兩雙鞋子。 雖房間被升級為較大房間，但實在太嘈吵了，機車、喧鬧聲，整晚不停。

相當優質的旅宿

整體來說很優，房間簡約舒適，有Google TV，週邊美食選擇很多，離台南車站步行10分鐘內可到，真要說有美中不足的地方，大概只有半夜洗澡水溫會忽冷忽熱
