Guest Reviews
- Nanai (8/5): - 浴室などは衛生面が良くないですが、立地は良く、セキュリティは十分すぎるぐらいしっかりしていました。
- Louis-Pierre (6/5): Small hostel undergoing repairs - Small and inexpensive accommodation centrally located (about 10 mins from the MRT station). The facility is undergoing repairs so there’s a limited availability of bathroom (only 1 toilet available and 2 showers). Clean bed and secure locker. Bathroom cleanliness could be improved. Staff is helpful.
- LiFu (2/5): - No tips on refurbishment
Shouldn't be open when most of the facilities are under renovation.
The photos are not the same as now, they are deceiving people.
And the temporary toilet environment is very messy.
Feel sorry for other foreigners for letting them stay in such a poor hotel.
- CHIEN YU (10/5): - Good
- 琴瑛 (8/5): - Staff are friendly and helpful.
- Verified traveler (6/5): 記得自備盥洗拖鞋 - 床位乾淨舒適,不過沒有盥洗用的拖鞋,洗澡時穿著布鞋進去浴室,就算把鞋子放在門口還是有一點濕,有提供長期住宿,所以房間內有比較多的雜物,不過不影響他人
- Verified traveler (8/5): 地理位置 - 鄰近寧夏夜市,卻鬧中取靜,樓下星巴克、便利商店,Ubike 齊全,非常便利
- Verified traveler (10/5): Good location, tidy room - Room is clean. The location is close to Taipei Main Station and old street. Common room is spacious and staffs are friendly
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 保安設施良好,職員服務態度十分理想,惟洗手間較不清潔,洗手盤面常積水及座廁常有未沖走的廢物!風筒風速不夠強,洗衣機面堆積了幾天的衣物亦沒有人處理,需留意
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Bathrooms are spacious and clean, pods are comfortable, common areas are nice. Overall, we liked the hostel; however, their clothes dryers are all broken and we spent hours and hours and lots of money doing laundry as a result. Nobody at the front desk warned us about this when we purchased laundry soap. It felt like they were being dishonest.
- Jing jung (6/5): 上樓有點麻煩 - 雖然第一次住青年旅館,只覺得上樓都要旅館的人下一樓來帶客人上樓,有點麻煩而已 !!
- Quynh (10/5): Well located with nice view - This hostel is easy to reach from Taipei Main Station and railway station to Taoyuan Airport. It is also ideally located for those who wish to explore Ningxia night market and Dihua Street to get to know local foods and culture. Public area is spacious with such a nice view over Jiancheng Park. Option of one dorm bed for two person is available which can save lots of money if you travel as a couple.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 何度もリピートしてます。タオルとアメニティは持参になるけどこの値段でロケーションを考えたら便利です。チェックインが夜中になる時は事前に言っておけば問題なし。隣にセブンイレブン、斜向かいに寧華夜市、バス路線もたくさんあり助かります^_^
- Jasmine (6/5): 只住一晚是沒差 - 隔音差,空調不冷,但是住宿位置很棒就在寧夏夜市旁邊
- KAKEI (10/5): - 從捷運中山站一直走3~5分鐘就到了, 適合背包一族的小出遊.
大廳有飛鏢可以玩, 員工也很友善, 是一個很好的休息地點.
喜歡夜巿的朋友可以到旁邊的寧夏夜巿逛, 真的很近!!
- MITSUE (10/5): - 宿泊先が入っているビルの玄関の出入り口が警備員(受付スタッフ)付きで、出入りする度に内線でスタッフを呼んで1階まで降りてきてもらうシステム。セキュリティーがしっかりしている気もするが、部屋にたどり着くまでにすごく時間がかかり、急いでいるときは不便に感じた。
ベッドはとてもキレイで幅広くスペースがとってあり、快適だった。スタッフもとても丁寧な対応で、旅行先で親切にされるありがたみを感じた。
- POO (8/5): - ก็ประทับใจ มีความปลอดภัยสูง บรรยากาศดี สะดวกสบาย ใกล้ MRT
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Air cond is not working when check in. I asked a guy to check up but still not working too! So he brought the portable air cond for me 🙁
- Makoto (8/5): - 台北駅から徒歩圏内で寧夏夜市も目の前でロケーションは良いです。
スタッフも明るくフレンドリーで滞在中は何も不満がありませんでした。
ベットにカーテンが付いていてある程度のプライベートが保てます。
0時を過ぎてもスタッフがフロントにいて遅い時間でも安心してチェックイン出来ます。
- Mich (8/5): Excellent location - Love the location (near to Taipei station, and NingXia night market). Friendly staff and the room is clean. Free breakfast. Value for $
- mitsunobu (8/5): 基本的な中・大型ドミトリーホテル - <良かった点>
・ホテルに来る人へのセキュリティー
・寧夏夜市が直ぐ近く
・日本語が出来るスタッフが居る時もある
・1区画がマットレスより大きい
・シャワー熱水OK。威力は並
・コンセントの口(2つ)の間隔が広い為、少し大きめの充電器が使用出来る
<良くなかった点>
・外出の毎に警備員に電話してもらわなければいけない
・洗面所ではお湯が出ない
・トイレの紙切れが数箇所あった
・共有のキッチンが無い
・入り口が分かり難い
<その他>
・一室が広く大人数
・部屋へはカードキー、ロッカーは4ケタのダイヤル
・ハンガー1つあり
※以下はホテル側に落ち度はありませんが、一応報告しておきます。
どこの国の人か分かりませんが、老若男女10強で来ていたグループが、朝も夜もお構い無しに大声で笑ったり会話していました。
私はうるさい場所でも眠れる為大丈夫でしたが、普通の人は睡眠を妨害されるレベルでした。
また、それだけなら良いのですが、夜になると・・・
大人の夜の営みの声(女性の生声)が、隠す様子も無く部屋中に響き渡っていました。
それも2日連続で・・・!
今まで沢山のドミトリーに泊まってきましたが、この様な事は有りませんでした。
改めて「理解でき出来ない程、常識の違う人間がこの世には存在する」と再認識しました。
- Vivian (6/5): - 我是獨自旅遊的女生, 有幾點我覺得必須要注意:
1. 廁所不是在房間裏,所以你要先離開房間,經過一個共用的空間,才可去到廁所。
2. 每一間浴室並不是封閉的,所以旁邊別人的水會濺在你的腳上。
3. 房間裏的儲物櫃不是很大,所以行李箱放不進去。
4. 網上很多文章介紹的酒吧現在已經沒有了。
5. 女生廁所(也是浴室),男職員隨便會進去。不會敲個門或是什麼。
6. 廁所吹頭髮的地方很熱。
7. 我自己感覺床舖很乾淨的
8. 我這次的體驗令我不會再住在背包客棧, 我住在全女生的宿舍,好像大概可以容納二十四人,而當中大約有七個人在睡覺的時候,發出極大的鼻鼾聲。有很多人把行李攤在路中央,有很多結隊而來的女生很吵, 所以根本不適合休息。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 初めて、この様な所に泊まりましたがとても快適で良かったです!
フロントにたどり着くまでがちょっと大変かもしれません。
- k (8/5): perfect place to stay for the money. - clean. reasonably quiet. appreciated the free breakfast.
Thursday evening receptionist was great.
overnight receptionist (thurs and fri) was helpful.
Friday morning receptionist was the opposite--rude and not helpful.
- Shi chang (10/5): 很好的經驗,CP值高 - 服務很棒,接待人員都很親切,說明也很清楚,附近也有很多店家,離捷運也不遠,對於旅行的人很方便,環境很舒適,房間漂亮,乾淨,整體來說很划算,是會想再來的旅館
- Hyunju (10/5): 전반적으로 괜찮았어요 - 새벽에 도착해서 숙소 입구를 좀 헤매긴 했지만 위치가 야시장이랑도 가깝고 너무 좋았어요. 숙소 올라갈 때마다 직원분이랑 같이 올라가야했는데 보안면에서 보면 좋은 것 같았구요. 더블베드도 되고 숙소와 화장실도 청결한 편이었습니다. 다만 침대 옆 쪽 부분에 먼지와 머리카락이 좀 있어서 예민하신 분들은 참고하셔야 할 것같아요. 하지만 가격에 비해 전반적으로 매우 깔끔하고 배낭여행으로 온 학생들에게 좋은 호스텔이라 생각이 드네요
- Verified traveler (8/5): 值得推薦! - 一開始找不到入口,一樓也沒有任何標示或招牌,所以白折騰了不少時間。搭電梯上樓時需要等旅館人員下來接,雖然門禁比較安全,但入住後若要進進出出的,感覺不太自由。除此之外,清潔度佳、臥床舒適、還附有西式的簡易早餐,整體而言cp值相當高,位居新大樓的一層,環境怡人景觀好。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 立地も便利で清潔。何も言うことはありません。私は英語が話せませんが、欧米系の方がスタッフなので英語を話せる人はいいと思います。
- SEI (10/5): 明るい、清潔、安全 素晴らしいホステル - とても清潔で素晴らしいホステルです。世界中の若者が集い思い思いの旅行を楽しんでいます。又機会があれば泊まりたいと思います。
- CHING MIAO (10/5): 我喜歡 - 房間夠寬唱,服務也好,只是出入不夠自在。。
- LOK HEI (10/5): 無與倫比 - 住宿環境無與倫比,地點很方便,職員態度一流,地方很大,很適合聯誼。當晚班的Jason跟早班的 Kate 和 Jasmine 都很值得表揚,表現非常稱職。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 出入りが不便(ビルの管理人、ホステルスタッフのサポートが毎回必要)
- Verified traveler (6/5): - 我比較適合安靜的環境
- CHOU (10/5): 在建成圓環對面的星河 - 靠近捷運中山站6號出口,出站後左轉,走過一個陸橋,再繼續直走會看到建成圓環公園,對面是星巴克,星巴克旁邊有一個入口,進去跟警衛說你是4樓訪客,就會有引導的人員帶你上樓囉。上四樓後先到櫃台領鑰匙,需要出示身分證跟繳交100元保證金。接著會帶你到房間、床位,每個人也會有一個櫃子可以上鎖。床位也有拉簾可以拉起來,就可以休息了!隔天有附早餐,通常是白土司、全麥土司,草莓果醬、花生醬,飲料有水、咖啡、茶可以喝。
廁所、衛浴是共用的,基本上進去浴室左邊是廁所,右邊是浴室。廁所要小心架子,昨天站起來太快撞到木頭架子,頭有點痛,身高高的人要小心動作...。
- Yi (10/5): Near MRT Zhongshan station - I have lived here for three times. The following are the reasons, first is because the low price (about $300NT dollar/per night). Second, each bed is equipped with a light and two socket. Also, they provide Wifi there. What's more, for the breakfast you can bake some toast with strawberry and peanut sauces. For drink, there are water, tea and coffee for you to choose. Because of these advantage, Starbox became the first choice when I visit Taipei~~~
- Luis (10/5): Bien ubicado. Buena relación calidad y precio. - Buena opción. Céntrico y cómodo.
- Ben (6/5): 方便 CP值高的飯店 適合喜歡熱鬧的旅客 - 優點:離夜市近, 捷運也在走路可到的範圍. 7-11,Starbucks, 全家都下樓可看到
房間設備新且置物櫃大.早餐還有提供免費的吐司跟咖啡
交誼廳很大還附設有酒吧
如果喜歡跟各地的旅客交流聊天,這邊會是划算的好選擇.
缺點:飯店人員服務素質參差不齊, 有的很友善 有的不但沒禮貌還會對不同國家的人大小眼
另外,每次回飯店都要等人下來帶才能回房這點也是相當不方便, 晚歸者可能常常會遇到要等5-10分鐘以
上才有人帶你回房
平日的晚上還算安靜,假日交誼廳的音量大概要到三四點才會安靜下來(還是由飯店的人自己帶頭開趴)
建議晚上想好好休息的旅客週末假日選擇這裡要好好考慮
- 임언약 (10/5): 좋았어요 - 잠자기에도 방이 생각보다 넓고 저렴하게 결제했어요!
- Yi (10/5): 靠近捷運中山站5號出口(步行5-10分鐘)Near MRT station - 這次住在C07(上舖),有床墊、棉被、枕頭、衣架、燈管、插座在床的附近,以及拉簾。住在上舖的好處是空氣更流通但壞處是床位比較多燈光,之前住下舖把簾子拉起來後就一片漆黑很好睡著,但在上舖光源比較多一些。每個人會有一個置物櫃,用鑰匙打開就好。另外浴室部分我覺得比較小一點,置物架也比較高,也需要開窗戶通風,地板要小心滑。早餐有茶、水、咖啡、土司(草莓醬、花生醬),自己烤,有兩台土司機,有時要輪流使用。吃早餐的交誼廳很大,一個人佔一張桌子吃早餐都不是問題。
- ys (6/5): Need someone bring u up is the worst - Room is huge but you would understand how noisy it could be. Some Moron packing at 4am for half an hour making plastic bag sounds happened. Just want to say if you are one of those bad packer, be considerate. Whole world would be a better place. Bed is comfy and worst is what I stated in title. Bit inconvenient and tiolet bit dirty also.
- Chou (10/5): 在星巴克樓上的星盒 - 星盒在星巴克樓上,要從星巴克隔壁的門進去,跟警衛說要到4樓,就會有員工下來接你上去入住。入住繳押金100元,等隔天還房卡時退還,進房門前需要刷卡,每個人一個床位,有床墊、棉被、枕頭、床頭燈、插座。淋浴間跟廁所都在走廊盡頭,比較潮濕。隔天早餐是土司(果醬、花生醬)、咖啡、水,離開前記得還卡片退押金!員工們都很親切!住宿地點離台北車站Y19出口近(走10分鐘),Y19走到Y1再上一層樓就是捷運台北車站。
- Daphne (8/5): 淺眠者慎入 - 約20床左右的人員進出房間,多少都會干擾到睡眠品質,整體而言還算不錯
- YU HONG (8/5): 高C/P - 高C/P值,這個價位也沒什麼好挑的了
- prasarn a. (8/5): ทำเลสดวกอยู้ระหว่างกลางสถานีmrtจงซาน กับmrt airpor - สดวก ปลอดภัย มีแหล่งกินอาหารใกล้ๆ
เดินทางได้ง่าย มีลิฟท์ แถมอาหารเช้า
บรรยากาศสบายๆ ห้องน้ำเพียงพอ
- Verified traveler (6/5): 場所は最高だが。 - 夜は、寧夏夜市が交差点を渡ればあるため楽しめます。夕方にシャワーを浴びる人が多く、室内換気が窓一つしかないため湿気がすごかった。また、トイレが同じ部屋にあるため、湿気が気になりました。朝は、食パン食べ放題。
- MARY ANN (8/5): - The place is good. People from reception are very accomodating.
- Phyllis (8/5): Comfy hostel - It is indeed located between Taipei Main station and Zhongshan Station, so to me , it is better that I can consider which station suits the best for my trip , if you familiar with the MRT in taipei. Also, the hostel is modern and spacious, which clearly add point to it.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Cheap, Comfortable Hostel in Taipei - Was looking for a cheap, comfortable stay near Taipei Main Station MRT and this place met all my needs.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Modern, quiet and comfortable for a low price! - Location is about a 10 to 15 minute walk from Taipei Main station, which is the main transportation hub in the city. Facilities looked very clean and modern. The rooms are mainly quiet at night, even with many other guests, which was nice. Liked the privacy of curtains on my bed. The bed was comfortable with space to put my belongings on the side. A locker and key was also provided to store personal items.
The rooms are kept away from the lobby, which keeps them quiet. Even the lobby itself is split between a quieter main area, and a bit noisier bar type area next door, so you have your choice of atmospheres.
I was pleasantly surprised by the overall quality of my visit for the price, and will definitely be returning again.
- arigato3db (8/5): - Best location, in a few minites from/to Ningxia Night market, possible to reach on foot even from Taipei Station.
