Hostels in Taiwan, China

Overall, it was decent. The location is very convenient. My first impression was a little off because the mattress looked a bit old, but after checking, I found it was clean, so it wasn't a huge issue. The mirror above the sink was also a bit too small. For breakfast, I went down a bit late and there was hardly anything left. I hope these points can be improved.

This accommodation offers excellent value for money and is very conveniently located near the train station. The building is situated in the middle of the area, so it might take a little time to find the entrance sign at first. Once inside, the elevator is on the left—take it to the 12th floor, where you’ll find the check-in counter on the left-hand side. Slippers are provided, and you’ll need to store your shoes in the designated cabinet. There are also complimentary snacks and a water dispenser available. Inside the accommodation, there are multiple rooms with bunk beds, along with large lockers that can fit bigger luggage. Each guest is provided with a large basket for clothes, a smaller one for personal items, and a cup for toiletries, which is convenient for use in the bathroom. The bathroom area is slightly compact, with around seven units that include both shower and toilet sections in the same space. There are also four washing machines and four dryers available, with usage allowed until 10:00 PM. Additional facilities include a vanity room equipped with Dyson hair dryers, cotton pads, cotton buds, and even nail clippers available for borrowing. There is also a pantry area where guests can sit and have meals. Overall, I would highly recommend this place for solo travelers or girl groups. However, if the property is busy, you may need to plan your shower time in advance, as the bathroom facilities can get fully occupied.

The hotel entrance is inside a Family Mart, which made it a bit hard to find. The facilities are quite old, but the location is super convenient – right downstairs you have a train station, taxis, and convenience stores. The atmosphere was very welcoming and friendly. I also participated in a brownie-making activity, and it was a fun, hands-on experience!

It's close to Hualien Station, about a 5-minute walk away, but the entrance is not very wide, so be careful. Lockers with keys are available. The staff were friendly and all facilities were clean. There is a common space next to the reception, but it is not face-to-face, so it may be a little difficult to talk to other guests. My bed was a double and spacious, but there was only one power outlet, so I couldn't use the bed lamp and adapter at the same time.

Great location, super close to everything in Ita Thai. Rooms are SO SPACIOUS! I’m 5’4 and I could almost stand up in the pod. There’s even room for your bags next to the bed and the whole pod locks so you don’t have to spay for a separate locker. Staff are friendly. Everything is clean, especially the bathroom/shower room. There’s a kitchen area on ground floor and a rooftop. It wasn’t a sociable hostel really, but I wasn’t there for that so it was perfect.

Location: You will need to walk up to 15 mins with the last part of the trail to be uphill. If you have heavy luggage, you will need to do some workout. But overall, it is located in the quiet area of the town and very peaceful. Around the corner, there's a 7-e convenient store. Room: Big and spacious, and very clean. To note that, the fridge is sharing among all the rooms in the same floor. Service: Good and excellent customer service. Breakfast: Decent but not entirely amazing.

The check-in counter is separate from the actual accommodation, and it's a self-service check-in process. The room itself is quite spacious, and the 'space capsule' bed has a basic cable TV. Due to the material of the capsules, there's quite a bit of noise when guests enter and exit, but luckily, my fellow guests were very considerate and kept quiet all night. The bathroom and toilet are separate, which is good, but the shower water temperature was very difficult to control and the water pressure was quite low, making showering a bit of a challenge. Overall, it's a hostel with no major highlights, but no significant drawbacks either.

great amazing place to stay very clean and the owner is always ready to attend to your requests!

Highlight is definitely the common room, very comfy and set up in a way which is ideal for playing games together and getting to know new people. Beds are comfy with curtains and showers and bathrooms are clean. Bicycles are also available, really convenient way to grab a quick snack, since the hostel is admittedly not in super short walking distance to many things. Great place to stay in Yilan.

I love that this place is near from the transportation and tourist spot, everything is walkable. Aside from that the staff is accommodating. If you're more concerned with its safety this hostel is a best choice. Definitely a best hostel when visiting in Chiayi
