Room is very inconvenient, the only furniture is the bunk bed and locker. There’s no elevated surface to put items on. There is only luggage elevator which you’d still need to lift your baggages to put them in. Staff were great, they recommended us a lot of places to visit. The shared kitchen and hang out spaces are nice too. I’d only recommend this for solo travelers.

排除寒流外，還會再訪

服務人員非常親切熱情！房間乾淨整潔，跟網路上照片一致。遇到寒流，蓋了二件被子才夠暖，怕冷的人，要多留意。唯一可惜的是房間對於街上的聲音，完全沒有隔音效果，幸好帶著抗噪耳機，才得以入眠。地點非常好，文化路夜市、火車站都很近，嘉義市鬧區，步行都可以到達。

女子ドミトリー に宿泊。部屋は4人部屋で4人にてフル仕様。各部屋にシャワーとトイレが付いているので、誰かが使っている時は使用不可。1階のトイレを使うしかない。 エレベーターは荷物専用。ホステル内は中履きに履き替える。 地下にラウンジ、5階にキッチン。5階のキッチンは2回利用したが誰もいなかった。 タオル、歯ブラシなし。ボディソープ・シャンプー・コンディショナーあり。 18:00までにチェックインが必要なので注意。 日本語が書かれた注意事項をチェックイン時に渡されたので、わかりやすかった。 カードキーでホステル出入口、ドミルーム、ロッカーを開け閉めする。 ロッカーにカードキーを入れたまま、ロッカーを閉めてしまったが、18:00前だったのでフロントにいるスタッフに対応してもらえた。これが18:00過ぎだったら詰んでいた。

女生獨遊背包客入住一晚4人女生宿舍房 。 特點： 1.洗手間浴室設施在房間內、2.退房時候需要自行拆除枕頭套被套以及床褥套、3.是次入住錯過了員工當值時間，幸好旅店有周全的安排讓櫃檯沒有當值人員時段（晚上6:30至翌日早上八點之間）仍然能讓旅客順利入住（很喜歡寫了旅客名字小木盒這個巧思）4.沒有載人電梯，只有運載行李箱的輸送電梯（由於是次入住並沒有帶行李箱，兼且被安排住在地下那層，所以未能體會有關使用行李箱的旅客實際情況；而且翌日亦沒有寄放行李，所以未能評論有關寄存行李事宜。） 感想： 洗手間浴室非常乾淨；注意馬桶不能丟進任何東西。有關退房時要自行拆除被套一事，我個人並沒有反感，由於旅店價錢相宜，加上配套設施甚好，所以某程度上的自助是合理的，只是想反映一下拆除被套的時候聲音可能會騷擾到同房其他住客，我退房當日是清早，拆被套的時候頗煎熬，實在太怕打擾到其他旅客休息，回想起來只有這點是雞肋啊！可惜逗留時間太短，未有確切感受整個旅館所有服務措施，但下一次到嘉義的時候仍然會想入住這旅館～有關在櫃檯人員下班時間才入住事宜，只要提前聯絡櫃檯職員說明情況的話，他們便會作出安排，很安心的入住感受😊 再次謝謝旅館人員的協助👏👏👏

コスパ良し

駅や夜市から徒歩圏内だし、観光スポットへはレンタサイクルで周れます。スタッフは美味しいところをたくさん教えてくれました。とてもお得な滞在ができ、大変満足です！ 短所は、フロントが10:00～18:00なための荷物の預かりに注意です。またトイレットペーパーが流せないのとシャワーブースとの仕切りがないため床が濡れます。

雙人房

我們住的是雙人房，一開始拿到的房間充滿煙味，向櫃檯反應後立刻換了一間，但第二間依然有一股霉味，冷氣開一陣子之後才消散。 房間非常小，牆面有點髒，浴室地板有殘留頭髮，整體的清潔度不甚滿意，房內有一台電視一副桌椅，沒有其他裝飾，沒有度假感，但便宜，地點不錯。
