Great staff!

The staff here are the best thing about the place. They are fantastic and really helpful (and also spoke English well), with helpful ideas / guidelines. However the accommodation itself is just too crammed and there is no space to move in the rooms. And I have stayed in many hostels - and still think this! You have your own bed and built into your bed area is a big locker for your luggage. I think trying to do everything whilst sitting on your bed is quit hard. The toilets / showers are well maintained and clean. Communal area on the ground floor is nice but tendency for mosquitos to be inside most evenings as the front door slides open and closes when guests enter / exit. Communal area on the roof is nice for groups but nobody really seemed to use this area when I was there and it’s a bit run down.

綠意

地點很棒，步行2分鐘可達捷運站，公車線也多。道路對面就是廣闊的花博園區，非常適合安排在圓山、士林此區的慢活之旅，好好漫遊綠地、河濱！ 櫃台親切有禮，房間、浴室很乾淨，頂樓交誼廳寬敞舒適，戶外尤其有氣氛(如圖)，連續兩晚我都在交誼廳閱讀、寫日記，感覺很自在～ 唯一待考慮的是價格偏高且不含早餐，一床住五六兩晚共1900元，幸好以國旅券折扣後，450元/晚。而旅館旁就是捷運和馬路，交通噪音會較大些。 若來台北的北半部，預算較寬，重視鄰近公園的綠意，這裡會是不後悔的好選擇！

評価が良かったので利用しましたが… *良かった点 フロントの兄さんが親切丁寧だった *悪かった点 1.予約時の部屋写真と全然違う。ドミトリーに慣れていない方には、誤解を招くだろう。写真の変更が必要かと。 2.泊まったのは最上階の4階でしたが、シャワーの出が一定でなく、着換えを置く棚も小さすぎて、それなりにテクニックがいる。 3.トイレでトイレットペーパーを流せないようで、特に女性は大変だと思います。
