Rooms without windows should have clear descriptions.. if a couple comes in and you have 2 beds on the floor.. give them an option of a large sheet so they don't need to fight the sliding all night.... pretty good vibe otherwise.
May 3 - 4, 2026 stay. Clean n safe. I will stay again
You must rent towel. Shared bathroom is a pain, but doable
Each room needs a safe to store valuable
Bus 1960 costs 190 Taiwan dollars, 7 US. Buy Easy card, 120, n load up . At TPE, you may be able to buy with credit card. Otherwise, purchasing n loading must be In Taiwan dollars CASH ONLY. To exchange, bank or department store mall customer office may do. Hostel does not. Other hotels Only exchange IF you stay there.
Totally robbers and impossible to deal with. Stay away if you would like to save your money.

I don't understand the good ratings of this hostel!
I booked a private room. It was very small, so the breathing air became very heavy. It was dusty, damp and humid, the air conditioning was so loud that I couldn't sleep well.
There are only two showers and two toilets! The toilet cubes are extremely small, if you are overweight you'll have trouble fitting there. It wasn't crowded because I traveld in non-peak season, but I could imagine it getting crowded.
The breakfast was a dissapointment. The communal area is very small. I booked the hostel because I read they arrange lots of things to do - there was one trip to the Elephant Mountain in a rainy night. That's all.
The location is good, close to Taipei 101.
