My room is spacious, clean, and very comfortable.

- Amuoï (8/5): -
- A. M. (10/5): - * Wonderful host: Appreciate how friendly, responsive and helpful King was (e.g. offering early check-in, suggestions for where to go) and how he fostered a sociable environment in the common area. It was great to be able to chat with him and guests over tea and snacks
* Spacious, comfortable room with thoughtful details: Probably got the best sleep of my time in Taiwan here. Also liked that the room included a reading chair in addition to the work desk/dining table, a universal travel adaptor, and removable showerhead and extra slippers for the wet room style bathroom
* Location: Just off a main road with an easy walk to get to the train station, several tourist attractions, shops and restaurants, and public transit n/a
- Munck (9/5): Sûrement mon meilleur logement pendant mon séjour à Taïwan ! Les gens chambres sont propres, confortable et calme. L’hôt -
- Emil (10/5): Comfortable, lovely stay in a great location - I had such a great sleep in this homestay, which was welcome after some very uncomfortable beds around Taiwan.
King, the owner, was friendly, warm and patient with me. I had a blast getting to know him and even having a little drink together at the cool bar next door. Appreciated the little tea ceremony as well.
I would definitely stay here again on a future trip to Tainan.
- Seraina Kim (10/5): Sehr herzliche Unterkunft mit hervorragendem Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. - Der Besitzer ist unglaublich freundlich und aufmerksam. Er kontaktiert einen bereits vor der Anreise und gibt hilfreiche Tipps, wie man am besten zum Hotel kommt. Sein Englisch ist sehr gut, und er nimmt sich gerne Zeit, Empfehlungen für die Umgebung zu geben.
Das Bett ist fantastisch bequem, ich habe wirklich sehr gut geschlafen. Die Lage ist ebenfalls top und sehr praktisch.
Die Unterkunft hat eine gemütliche, warme Atmosphäre und ich habe mich sofort wie zu Hause gefühlt. Besonders schön fand ich auch den Tee, den er immer wieder anbietet. Man merkt einfach, dass er ein sehr herzlicher Mensch ist.
Ich kann diese Unterkunft wirklich nur empfehlen. Kleiner Minuspunkt ist, dass es keine grossen Badetücher gibt, sondern nur kleinere Handtücher. Diese reichen zwar aus, jedoch könnte man optional auch grosse Badetücher gegen eine kleine Gebühr anbieten.
- Anna (10/5): -
- gregory (8/5): Bon compromis entre emplacement pratique et tarif abordable - Assez proche de la gare pour y aller à pied.
Très propre, literie confortable, machine à laver à disposition.
Le gérant est très sympathique.
Salle de bain et toilettes privatives.
- Thorsten (8/5): Zweckmässiges zentrales Hotel - Ruhige Seitenstrasse. Nahe Fort Proventia. Freundlicher persönlicher Empfang. Lichtschalter am Bett wäre bequem.
- I Jen (9/5): -
- Amul (10/5): Comfortable Stay for a Solo Traveller in a Central Location - I stayed only for a night but this was my best stay in Taiwan.
Great location - right in the heart of West Central District to explore the town on foot but also in a quiet lane.
The room was really clean and comfortable for a solo traveller.
The common areas are also quite pleasant and I was able to store my bag post checkout.
Perhaps the biggest selling point is the host. After a rather stiff host at my previous stay in Taiwan, it was such a pleasant change for me. Got some great tips from him. In general too, he’s such a nice person to talk with.
Wish I stayed longer! The bathroom is a bit small but manageable.
- Giorgio (10/5): - It was a real pleasure to stay at OC Hostel! The room was beautifully decorated and roomy, really clean and with everything we needed. King, the host, was super kind and responsive. We could check-in earlier based on availability and do free laundry! The bed was super comfy and we could sleep really well. Also, amazing value for money. We really enjoyed our stay.
- Dennis (10/5): - Super Lage, schönes Zimmer, kostenlose Waschmaschine und besonders hervorzuheben ist der Besitzer, der super Englisch spricht und einen mit tollen Tipps versorgt. Alles top
- thomas (10/5): -
- Jovan Natalius (10/5): -

- Theresa (10/5): - Wirklich ganz tolles Zimmer in super Lage um down town zu Fuß zu erkunden und mit Abstand das bequemste Bett und schönste Zimmer, das ich bisher in Taiwan hatte :) außerdem super nette Inhaber mit einem total süßen Hund, wirklich ganz toll und sehr zum empfehlen! 😊 Alles war super ♥️
- Marian (9/5): -
- Andrea (8/5): 3 night stay - Great location, comfortable room, free teas and coffee and free washing machine and good drying area Shower was at a fixed angle so the water went everywhere and it was a wet room so not enclosed shower. Made the bathroom very slippy.

En bonus King le gérant propose un tea time fort instructif et agréable ! Rien, je recommande et je reviendrai avec plaisir !

- Collins (10/5): King est très accueillant, l'hôtel est propre est bien situé. - J'ai énormément apprécié prendre le thé avec King, le gérant de l'hôtel.
Il m'a fait découvrir des thés typiques de Taiwan.
Il m'a aussi était d'une grande aide pour retrouver mon baggage que j'avais perdu à la gare.
- Florian (9/5): Everything was perfect, owner was very friendly - I will totally go there again on my next visit! -
- David (10/5): Excellent host, great vibe, and wonderful location. - The hostel host went above and beyond for us. He made sure that everything was ready for us, even when we arrived a little early. During our stay our son got a little sick and he went out of his way to recommend a clinic, let us borrow his thermometer, and offer pain reliever. He also provided recommendations for the area and was very welcoming. The location was near a lot of sightseeing spots and good food. We got the family room and it was perfect for our family of five. Definitely recommend this place. Nothing to complain about. Everything was great.
- Florian (8/5): Seulement bien malheureusement - La grande chambre, la tv, les discussions avec le gérant et le thė offert, l'emplacement proche de temples et de bons restaurants Seulement 2 petites serviettes, la sdb étonnante par sa disposition (plafond bas) et son carrelage glissant, le lit inconfortable, l'insonorisation

- 秋萍 (10/5): - 地點很棒離國華街永樂市場神農路海安路都很近逛街方便,環境乾淨整潔服務親切,晚上睡覺很安靜,馬上列入口袋名單❤️ 沒有不喜歡的耶,一切都很美好💯
- 虹瑜 (10/5): -

- 林 (9/5): 超好 - 地理位置非常好,走去國華街神農街都很方便,旁邊還很多市場。
- Olivier (10/5): - Accueil et disponibilité des propriétaires rien
- louis (8/5): - Bien situé pour visiter la ville, au calme, cuisine et lave linge à disposition. Chambre propre.
- Xiang (10/5): Great location and amazing host. Will gladly return in the future. - - The host was extremely friendly and accommodating. There was no issue checking in late as they live in the same building.
- The location is great for exploring all the conventional attractions of Tainan. Everything is within walking distance.
- Despite some concerns about noise isolation prior to arriving, I found my stay quiet and I never felt disrupted in my sleep.
- The washing machine is available to use for free, which was a nice surprise. If anything, as the host also discussed with me, there might be newer properties available at lower prices in Tainan. However, their service is hard to match, and I’d gladly return the next time I visit Tainan.
- Wojciech (10/5): - OC Hostel is l the best choice for a stay in Tainan. It is not only, clean, with superb location and everything that you would need from a hostel, but also has the best owner - Mr. King.
He is kind, helpful and absolutely lovely. Mr King is also a tea ceremony master with deep knowledge about tea and has a delicious collection of beverages which, if you are lucky, maybe offered for you to try by the owner himself.
As an additional perk, the cutest living being, Jingjing is also living in the hostel, you will probably meet her when checking in, and be greeted by her - happy tail wiggling included.
I had many pleasant conversations with Mr. King and Jingjing over a cup of tea. These made my stay in Tainan much better than I anticipated.

- Martin (10/5): Geweldig verblijf in Tainan - Supergoede value for money, mooie locatie, fijne kamers. Host King is super behulpzaam en heel snel met reageren. Hij weet ontzettend veel van thee en was erg leerzaam, leuk en lekker een kopje Oolong thee met hem te mogen drinken. Veel leuke zaakjes in de buurt van het hostel. Zou hier weer naar terug gaan!
- Smartin91 (10/5): - I really liked the bed sheets and linen, they were really comfortable. I was quite surprised when I identified them to be 100% polyester, as I didn't expect such a smoothness and comfort from it.
The staff was very friendly, too. The shower is too close to the sink and toilet.
- Ruoqing (9/5): - 距离台铁站车程5分钟,周围很多吃的。虽然入住前有点小插曲,但总体非常满意。老板很友好,房间很大,住的很舒适。因为没有电梯,老板为了客人安全还帮我搬行李。完美的三天住宿体验~
- 宥心 (10/5): - 房間非常乾淨,設備齊全,還有大吹風機,床很大很好睡,床單被單材質都很柔軟,值得推薦,屋主超好聊,讓人有回家的感覺💕

Accueil chaleureux et sympathique de King, adorable, aux petits soins pour ses hôtes
Hôtel joliment décoré, chambre spacieuse, propre et confortable
Très bonne literie, oreillers moelleux
Hyper calme : aucun bruit la nuit. Ce qui est tellement rare, pour la première fois à Taïwan je n'ai pas eu besoin de bouchons d'oreille !
Et cerise sur le gâteau, le tout mignon chien de la maison, un petit caniche tout doux Tout était parfait
- YEN MIN (10/5): 老闆很熱情~ 地點離神農街很近,晚上可以去喝一杯再回去,整體來說體驗很好 - 房間別有一番風味
- HUI HSIN (7/5): 整體不錯就是聲音需要注意 - 環境很舒適,一進門很有書卷風,人員都很親切
提供很多設備,洗衣機還有洗衣球可以用
房間蠻大的,整體很乾淨,浴室水量大、熱水也很快熱
床很舒適,枕頭跟床墊不會很軟也不會很硬,而且很獨立筒,隔壁怎麼翻都無感 就是房間不知道為什麼都會有個很像雨聲+風聲的聲音,還蠻大聲的,要當作白噪音或是戴著耳機才能睡

- TZU NING (7/5): -
- Hanna (9/5): - Spacious room with everything you need, including free use of laundry and detergent. It was nice and quiet in the evening. The owner was very kind and recommended places to eat. Theres no lift, so if you have heavy luggage, you ll have to carry them up or down the stairs.

- TZU YI (10/5): 像來台南朋友家居住的輕鬆感,老闆待人非常親切 - 地點離小吃很近、老闆待人非常親切,就像去朋友家作的感覺一樣、床還是非常舒適、整體的風格都是我們喜歡的沉靜感 因為是老宅房門本來隔音間就沒辦法很好,但還好住客都很安靜
