Analysis

Key Strengths

Cafe-integrated shared space

The 2nd-floor cafe can be used for work or meetings, and guests receive discounts on beverages

Thorough hygiene management

Despite being a dormitory, the shared bathrooms and bedding are kept clean, ensuring a comfortable stay

Location with local charm

A 5-minute walk from Yuanshan Station, it's a great place to experience authentic Taiwanese daily life and breakfast culture rather than the tourist-centric city center

Relaxing and atmospheric facilities

The rooftop terrace with a good view and the resident cats create a small, leisurely atmosphere

Points to Note

Limitations in vertical movement

The building has no elevator, so guests with heavy luggage must carry it up the stairs to the 4th floor

Limited kitchen facilities

The shared kitchen is equipped only with a microwave, not a gas stove, making it suitable for simple meals rather than cooking

Inconvenient shower room design

The individual shower rooms lack a separate dry space to change clothes, so caution is needed to avoid getting clothes wet

Static atmosphere

The atmosphere is like a library with little interaction among guests, which may be disappointing for those expecting a social hostel

Recommended For

Solo travelers who prefer quiet relaxation It's a practical environment for staying quietly while thinking or working alone Value Suitable for travelers who are not averse to dormitories, given the high level of hygiene for the price in the 60,000 KRW range (approx. $41 USD) Repeat visitors to Taipei For those who want to experience the tranquility of a neighborhood where locals live, avoiding the hustle and bustle of Zhongshan or the Main Station
