Not crazy about online checkin...

Check-in process was online and cumbersome - not crazy about that. The place did have a nice housekeeper, and they let me stay in the central living room to do work after I checked out. I do appreciate that.

This hostel was a great choice for my solo trip in Taiwan. It’s easy to access to 2 stations near this hostel even if you carry big luggages. Quiet neighborhood, hotel guests. But I think you need to let them know what time you arrive at the hostel. I needed to wait for about one hour room cleaning done.

Basic Accommodation, Good Location

Basic accommodation for one-two nights stay. Good location, short walk to train station, bus station and night market. A lot of food options nearby. Not easy to find as the main entrance is just a regular house entrance. There is no proper signage so you just need to find the number 59 plate on the wall.

Rooms were clean and well-stocked, but each one different, and some without windows. Beds were comfortable. Advance check-in instructions were not clear. Nobody is available for on-site check-in, Be sure you have WhatsApp or Line installed, or you will be dead in the water. All communication with management is through those apps. Once we got that cleared up, everything went smoothly. This is not your typical tourist hotel, and some rooms do not have elevator access, but it is clean, safe, and authentic. I would stay here again!

No lobby staff and no staff ever seen to ask questions of. Only contact with the hotel was through whatsapp. Check-in was a tedious process through whatsapp which I would not have successfully completed without the help of someone I was traveling with. Had to request towels, drinking water and toilet paper through whatsap on a daily basis by 11 am.

Rooms are mostly without real windows.

The rooms with windows were not true windows, just a tiny cell hole high up that faces the corridors. So the rooms will not get amy sunlight. The rooms have some kind of cigarette smell. If they can get rid of smell plus wallpaper the room, room will be much better. The only good thing is that rates are quite low.

The confirmation letter from Expedia was no help. It took me an hour sitting in the lobby to realize there was no one working the frontdesk in the lobby. I had to catch other guests going in and out the 'hotel' to help with contacting the manager. I must first install Line, an app I had never used before, Then another person helped me with how to contact the manager with Line. That took another half an hour before I was checked in. As a visitor, I had internet but no phone.
