Unique old house transformed to an artistic little B&B like hotel, love the style and location, and friendly stuff next door. Since it was an old house, sound isolation was really bad, facilities looks a bit fragile, and toilet can get smily easily. Not a big problem for a family or close friends though.

I really enjoyed my time in Flip Flop Hostel and will stay there again if I'm ever back in Jiufen. The hostel is just a 2-3 minute walk from Old Street and offers a free night walking tour from 8-9pm. The hostel staff, Gaga, who was there during my stay was friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The hostel was homey, with a common area good for meeting and mingling with other travelers. I stayed in the dormitory on the 2nd floor - the room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The toilet and shower area was clean, but was located downstairs and there might (not sure) have only been one common/shared toilet and shower - this wasn't a problem for me during my stay but might be good to know for more picky travelers. For early risers, breakfast is quite late at 9:30am, but there's fresh homemade bread! The hostel is not the easiest to find but should be fine if you follow/have the directions (with pictures) they provide. All in all, definitely recommend! Thanks, Flip Flop Hostel Jiufen! : )

One of a kind experience
Quaint little B & B. Clean, comfortable and quiet. Shared bathrooms. You get to wake up to a Jiufen that’s not crowded. And explore the old street at night till lights out at about 9:30pm. There’s the night walk at 8pm. Complimentary breakfast.

Good stay in Jiufen
We enjoyed our few nights at the Flip Flop Hostel in Jiufen. There was only one room left when we booked and I think it must be the smallest of all the rooms. There was a small tatami mat area next to the platform bed for sitting, and a desk area with two stools. There was nowhere really to put our clothes, but we managed by using the desk area as a folded clothing area and tucked our backpacks under the bed (there were cubbies under there). When I originally booked, I thought some of the images were of a sitting area, but they ended up being part of another room. This was my mistake. The main lobby where one can sit outside the room, is not super comfy as everything is wood. It is charming though. We had two things which weren't so great for us: the bed was super hard and neither of us slept terribly well (but that's just preference) and breakfast was served starting at 9:30. While it was tasty, we are super early birds and prefer to eat around 7:30 or so. Again, just preference but something to note if you wish to take advantage of the breakfast option. Overall I would stay here again, as the location is great, but maybe choose a bigger room.

Great location unique feel
This was a great hostel. It’s located within a short walk to the old street area where all of the food and shops are located. It’s quiet and very homey feeling.

Awesome place to stay at Jiu Fen
Staying at Flipflop hostel @ Jiu Fen was one of the best decision I've made! It is right at the end of the Old street, yet it's not far from the shops, and the best thing is that the hostel is very well maintained. If you love oriental + contemporary interior concept, you don't wanna miss this place!
