This hostel is located in an old building. The very first moment I saw the place it looks a bit creepy, but when I got the keys and got into the room, the whole atmosphere is simply amazing.The wooden floor and the off-white walls made the room so cozy that I loved it so much! It is spacious and we can have group chat with a total of 9 fds from other rooms in my 6 ppl family room:) I'd love to stay here again~ Oh and the price is really worth it!

For the price, the place is very value for money. We booked a family room for 6 and the size was perfect for us 5 adults. The boxes under the beds made storing our shopping easy, leaving us space to walk. But then again, for what we pay, we really can't expect too much. Since we were out everyday all day, only coming back to sleep, the place provided all we needed. However, I do wish the shower area had a curtain to prevent water splashing the whole toilet.

The location was good as it was near the MRT and the Shihlin market. They gave us a key and and told us to place our luggage and come back later. There were other traveler luggage in there and later found out that was our room. The room does not look like the pics shown on the site. I was very disappointed as the place smells and we found pubic hair on the toilet seat and the floor as well. Even the comforter smells. The place seems like a student hostel than a minsu. WIll not come back again!

Found the hostel to be very friendly and nicely laid out. Location was in the middle of a popular night market and across the metro station.

The curtain is quite thin, so the sunshine sometimes wake me up early, even though i wish to sleep more, but i couldn't. I'd suggest to have a curtain that can resist the sun light more. Thanks!

We stayed in a 4pax ensuite room which is not located at the main hostel. The room was squeezy for 4pax. Would definitely not recommend it if all 4 were guys or anyone who is claustrophobic. We did not see any staffs throughout the 5 nights we stayed. Check in was done through a security guard. One thing good was that its near jiantan station and shihlin night market. There's 7-11, hi-mart and cosmed less than 5mins walk away. 24 hour self service laundry shop is also available.

First the location, its pretty near jiantan station and also near shilin night market. So its good! Even a little bit far from city center, its fine as long as near mrt station. The room in good condition, but i dont think they change the bed cover every check-out. And the Atmosphere, its smell badly in the alley outside the room, even inside the room no prob at all. The facilities are good. Have a hairdryer and coffee maker. The Staff very helpfull and friendly.

Feels more like a student hostel than a typical minsu hostel in Taiwan. But the location is excellent, just next to Shilin market with good food and shopping. Value for money!

The location is convenient. And easy to locate the apartment with the map. Kevin is very helpful. They have 2 addresses and I have tried both. The one in the pics are nicer, the other one is good though. I will stay there next time I come as well.
