Clean, great location, above-average hostel!

We are a couple and I'm a business traveler. This is a hostel but definitely a fun and clean one, front desk staff very helpful; gatherings in nicely-decorated common areas, good location (5-min walk from Taipei train station); clean room although a bit small, overall great stay. The breakfast stand was cute, we could get a burrito/ egg pancake thingy there for free! :) Good value for the money!

Convenient location

The hostel is located conveniently within walking distance to Taipei Main and Zhongshan stations, and these 2 stations are linked by a super long underground shopping street. The room and bed were quite clean. However, sharing with others means having to put up with smelly shoes and odd smells, and wished the hostel had provided air fresheners. The room I had faced the main street and the noise from the traffic was loud. Plus point is staff are friendly and willing to help.
