Very nice location and the staffs, and the rooms are clean. The air conditioners are little a bit noisy when sleep. Thanks!
Property is fairly nice and very aesthetic. Also quite clean! The staff are friendly too!
Location is convient, but the entrance is in a shopping area that closes after 9 or so and you have to take a back entrance if you come back late.
Bathroom facilities are also not amazing, there are no good places to put your clothes and towel while you shower and there is only one bathroom per gender.
Overall quite decent, especially for the price. Would stay again!
Rating the standard double room without window. This was the worst hotel room I’ve ever stayed in and the value for money was terrible.
The room is extremely old, has cracks and dirt everywhere on the wall and zero decoration. The aircon is old and very loud. You can clearly hear the neighbours showering when laying in bed. The bathroom feels like a prison cell.
The rate charged for this room is an insult and this place should not be supported before they put some money (they must make some at that size) into even the most basic renovation or upgrades!
I gave 2 stars only because the location is convenient!
This place is probably one of the closest hostels within proximity to Taipei Main Station. That is definitely helpful if you need to be close to the High speed trains, and express line to/from airport. I stayed in a single unit (not shared dorm), and found that it was clean. The shower had good pressure. The bed was a little hard. It was nice to have a window, with a view of the downtown. The person at the front desk is super awesome.

Très peu dormi à cause du bruit de la Clim dans la chambre c’est une horreur. Les photos datent sûrement de l’ouverture de l’auberge. Aujourd’hui c’est très abîmé, rouillé, décrépi et limite niveau propreté. Très déçu. Je n’y retournerai pas.
낡았지만 잘만합니다. 트윈룸이었는데 화장실과 방에 둘 다 창문이 있어 쾌적하게 이용할 수 있었고 화장실에서 냄새가 좀 나긴 했지만 창문이 커서 괜찮았습니다. 공용주방이 깨끗해서 뭐 먹기에 좋았습니다. 좀 낡아서 그렇지 청소 상태는 좋았습니다. 방도 꽤 넓어서 생활하기 좋았어요. 사진은 등록된 것과 거의 비슷합니다. 지하철역에선 조금 멉니다. 버스정류장이 바로 앞이라 버스로 이동하는게 더 편합니다.
โรงแรมดีคุ้มค่ากับเงินที่จ่ายไป Good & Worth hotel
ภาพรวมถือว่าดี สะอาดดี แต่ห้องแคบไปหน่อย อยู่ใกล้แหล่งอาหารอร่อย การเดินทางสะดวกมาก ใช้รถเมล์ รถไฟใต้ดินเป็นหลัก
The overall is good. The room is clean but too small. This hotel is close to all transportations and easy to get around the city.
The staff are friendly. Pretty usual for a hostel with up to 8 pax in a room. However i had an unpleasant experience with one of the guests snoring as loud as thunder throughout the night. I guess this is a gamble when you choose to live in a hostel , if you are lucky enough you’d get a peaceful sleep for this price , if not.... you don’t get to sleep at all.
