After meeting Mike, the owner, we took the lift to the 11th floor of an unpromising looking block, only to discover a little gem of a room. Spotlessly clean and equipped to a standard that easily matches the big chain hotels, Travelodge etc. It was quiet and hassle free. Not too much in the way of natural light in the room, but that's a minor thing not worthy of a mention in the 'What didn't you like?' box. The Ximen location was excellent. It's central and only ten minutes walk from the Taipei. alle beoordelingen »
Excellent location, about 5-min walk to Ximending (shopping district) and MRT station. Has a 24-hr MOS burget outlet downstairs. If taking airport limousine bus to Taipei Train Station, only about 70-90 TWD taxi fare. Room is very clean as the staff will tidy the room & change the towels everyday. Room is spacious and comfortable. Staff Mike is very helpful and responded fast to requests. Good! Provided many bottles of water in the room to keep us hydrated throughout our stay. Very good! Wi.
From Ximen station exit 6. once you get out from the exit, you will see watson in front of you. turn backward and walk all the way down (5 mins) then you will find the hostel. before you reach the hostel, you will see 'Come Buy' drink outlet at your left hand side. the hostel owner , Mike will always wait for you outside the hostel. Get a 5 day mobile unlimited data plan from airport (NTD300) with free 5 mins airtime and it is enough for you to call Mike when you reach Ximending station and he.
The owner Mike was very accommodating. I emailed him that we may reach the hostel at around 130 am and he waited for us outside despite the late hours. The place did not have a 24/7 reception since it was an apartment type accommodation, so it was very nice of him to wait for us outside. The place was convenient as well. Just a short walk to 2 MRT stations and to the Ximending shopping area. The room had all the value adds you would see in a hotel. They even have a 3D tv and computer in each ro.
the room is spacious, equip with a desktop-like television, strong wifi.
The room provides, towels, small kettle, tea bags, coffee, mineral bottled water, so is better than those budget motel:)
There is room service during noon time.
Place near to a 24 hour MOS burger restaurant and a walkable distance to XiMenDing MRT:)
easy check in and out:).
Spacious room, at the heart of city (edge of XMD), walking distance (10min max) to Ximen MRT. Strong wifi, even can use TV like a PC.
When lugging big luggages arriving at Taipei Station, I would advise to take a 4min taxi to hostel, costs NT70 will save the hassle.
Call the reception upon arrival, else you may not find the entrance.
The room is super clean and they provide free wifi, tv, computer and even 3D glasses for movie.. The hotel is nearby ximending area and also my favourite fast food chain MOS.:) the hostel owner is very friendly and good. Totally going stay over again!!!.
For the price it was a good deal. Excellent wifi and Mike was helpful. It's not a hotel but a small apartment in a residential block. I was alone in 4 person room plenty of space if only 1 or 2 people. Plenty of drinking water and towels etc.
Mike is very helpful. u will have to call him upon arrival, else u will not be able to find this hostel. He will be waiting for you infront of the building... great place n will stay again.
Few mins walk from Ximen Metro exit 6.
The room is clean with big Plama TV and computer for use. The location is good, near to XiMen station and I can walk to Taipei Train Station. I will recommend this hostel to travelers looking for hostel at bargain price.
awesome customer service from mike and his friend. very clean and great location. for me the place is easy to find. we had A pleasant stay! thanks mike & smart hostel.
The hotel located 5 minutes away from the happening area, hence the radius of the hotel is just nice and not too hectic with peoples....the quadruple room was satisfying.
The location was perfect! The shower room was a little bit hard to use for me. . . But the other things OK.
My Taiwanese friend and the room owner helped me very much.
The location was really really good! Is worth to stay!
The person in charge was nice, he waiting us at downstair just incase we lost~ Thank you so much Mike! :).
Strategic location, value for money,friendly staff,good coffee making facility very clean towels, big led television and good wifi access in room.
The host, Mike was really nice and the room was better then I expected. It had everything I needed and in a great spot.
Friendly services, immaculately clean, newly refurbished residential
apartment, top-notch wifi, location, price.
Good size, traveler friendly items - razor, toothbrush, water etc even a PC if you didn't bring your own.
I like the TV and computer that is available in every room while paying a very little for the room.
Very nice room in the best ever location. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Close to MRT: Ximen Station
and West Bus Station to take a shuttle bus to Taoyuan International Airport.
Location is good. Able to access to shoping area and MRT in few minuite.
owner of the hostel is helpful. good location.near to subway.
clean and worth the price to stay.
Great location.
Location.
No microwave oven so I couldn't buy food from convenience store to heat up. If using keycard or PIN number will be better than carrying a physical key when I go out. No proper reception area & receptionist to leave luggage when I arrive early in the Taipei. Had to look for public phone to call the staff to come to hostel to keep luggage for me.
None. Everything was perfect. The bathroom was a bit small but nothing to complain about.
location of the place is not obvious, may spend a bit of time finding it.
there is no signboard like other hotels, more like an apartment kind.
there are no reception booth, but a senior security at the ground floor. but he will leave at 6pm.
toilet is small but the stuffs are well equip like a hotel.
Toilet too small, and the bedding cushions not on the soft side. But all things in, I can live with the small discomfort.
I waited that the reception for 15mins but no one pick up the phone. So I failed to check-in. The host called me like an hour later. Overall the experience is not bad.
None.
pantry and furniture looks old.
The bed and particularly the blanket are not long enough for someone
over 170cm, and the pillow softer than a sponge to support anything let
alone you head. The texture of the covering for the bed, pillow and
blanket are nylon type things that I can't accept as comfortable in
my humble opinion. Windows open to insalubrious views. No telephone
inside room.
Hard to find, just a postcard among many other signs in a shared entrance.
Nope...
no breakfast provided.
The washroom is a little small but still acceptable.
Technically it was not a hotel. It was just one of the rooms of apartment blocks, so there is no reception and very difficult to find.
Nothing much.
It is hard the find the Hostel when we first reach but the staff is helpful, he came out to look for us.

The caretaker allowed us to check-out at 4.00pm but the Cleaner chased us out at 1.30pm.
She overruled the permission given by the caretaker.
This is apartment hotel so there is no staff available to answer and advise all need information. The hotel sign is very small and difficult to detect. To be easy, you have to follow exit 6 from ximan MRT, turn right and walk until you see "Mos bugger" then just 2-3 block, you will reach the appartment no. 68.
toilet need to improve.
small space, not close to metro station.
Toilet is too small and the bed sheet is no comfortable.
