Friendly and helpful staff! Had a great time on my way to Green Island.

The hostel was pretty nice itself. The hosts were sweet and helpful. I liked that there snack options that you could pay for. The showers were clean and the water was always hot! There were a couple of unsatisfactory points for me though! 1. There were too many fruit flies in the kitchen and lounge area and they were on everything including the fruits set out for breakfast (and left out after breakfast was over) and the knives used for the toast spreads. It just felt a tad bit unsanitary overall. 2. There was a fee for luggage storage after you check out. While this was a first for me, I was willing to pay the fee. The issue that I had was that although the written out directions for how to go about storing your luggage after you check out (at least the English version) say that the fee is $30, when it came time to pay, I was told I had to pay $50 with no explanation as to why. It might have been a language barrier or misunderstanding but either way, I left unsatisfied with the discrepancies with what is written and what is actually acted upon. Overall, if you're looking for a hostel with comfortable beds and nice showers, this is the place for you.

The atmosphere was what made the stay more comfortable. I could have chosen a hotel room, but wanted to make this trip more unique and not just a room to sleep in. The staff and other travelers made the trip more enjoyable, I wilL be booking at this hostel again.

Travel is easier when you find a place that welcomes you and gives you more than you need or ask for. Comfort, ease and relaxing are the things after a long day of exploring around this area was just perfect to fall into at this hostel. I rebooked for a few days after my flight to Orchid Island was cancelled. Worth the price, convenience, and more to stay here!

Bad.

Good location from Taitung train station just 5 mins walk. Lovely staffs here, even volunteers, talkative and activating, knows many travel info here in Taitung city, especially Jeremy and helper Meng! Cozy stage just right outside of the main door, clean and chill pretty much stuff and info pop you can get. If you get any chance to visit Taitung you should stay here!!! Recommend!!!

It was close to the train station, but far from downtown. The bus ride into town was okay. They tried to explain where to go. Hreat language skills.

Shelly the manager was really friendly and helpful. The beds are comfortable and clean. Located close to the Taitung TRA station but some way from the city centre.

Amazing staff where they will try to individualise you and talk to you. Really make you feel like you're living in your own home. Value for money and highly recommended place to stay! Convenient from taitung station - only 6 mins away.

Short walk from the train station, which doesn't have much around it. The host was very warm, enthusiastic, and helpful in connecting travelers going to the same destinations—I ended up traveling with someone else the next day. The common area was a great place to meet people and hear their stories. The hostel also let me borrow a bike to get dinner nearby (very few options at night), otherwise it's 20min bus ride from the city center or 30min ride. The room itself was fine with small lockers. Private bathroom and shower rooms (not stalls).
