Best Place to Base Yourself to See Taipei!”
I always stay here on Taipei stopovers to the USA since I can easily drag a wheeled suitcase back & forth to the bus/train/MRT station. Although a little pricey when booked w/o paying cash on arrival, this is easily one of the best hostels/guest houses I have ever stayed at+a good value when you consider that breakfast+water+coffee/tea is free and it was very easy to find - even arriving at night. It’s also easily reachable via the Zhongshan station where you are much less likely to get lost as the main train station is a confusing maze underground. Breakfast is usually toast / fruit (now they have congee as an option on most days) from 8:30-11 am or so, but you might want to get up closer to 8:30 am to ensure that you get some fruit. There is free tea (black and green), coffee & water from a water machine; only 4-5 toilets + showers on the main floor + some more upstairs, but I usually don’t have to wait; & you can't use your own locks on the lockers as its a # combo.

One of the recommended hostels to stay”
It's my second time to go to Taiwan, now with my partner and it was very advantageous for us to stay in a hostel near Taipei Main Station. Homey Hostel houses a very cozy environment where you can mingle with other nationalities and the locals. The staff are very helpful with our inquiries. Everything was clean and organized and they even offer tours and bike rentals at a discounted price! So for those who would like to travel to Taiwan and stay near the train and bus terminals, Homey Hostel is a place to be. Kudos to Dave by the way for accommodating us from check-in to check out.

Excellent”
compared to other hostels, this is above average. living room is spacious, ambiance is so good, they have free breakfast (but don't expect too much). i just find it difficult because the toilet room is different from the shower room, but it's just ok. i observe they clean the place regularly. you can put food in the fridge with your names. you have own lights in your bed and socket plugs.

If u are a group of family or a couple looking for privacy, this is not the place to go to. BUT if you are a solo backpacker, then I guess this is a good choice for u. I don't know much about hostels because I'm only used to hotels, and it was stupid of me to assume that a hostel would be able to offer something similar to a hotel room. The room we got was private but it was small and all the beds were bunk beds. Also, one of the main reasons why I chose this place was because I thought it was Muslim-friendly. I googled Muslim-friendly hotels and Homey Hostel was on the list. Although let me tell u exactly why it's not Muslim-friendly.. Their shower areas & comfort rooms are both public to avoid gender issues. Inspite of religion, not all would be fine w/ that. Other Cons: free breakfast but not buffet breakfast Pros: super-friendly staff, good location, surprisingly clean bathrooms and shower rooms, laundry service w/ add'l charge, foosball in common area, discount for HSR tickets

Very good”
It’s my first time staying in a hostel and what I don’t like is the limited space in the room and the locker size. Also the staff has forgotten to pass me new bedsheets and pillow cases for my bed. I only realized it on my last day. I did not have a good sleep for the first 2 nights as I slept on the upper deck due to the disturbance caused by the person underneath. I would advise travellers who are light sleepers to avoid staying here. However for travellers on a tight budget, i would say it’s a reasonable stay. The bathrooms are cleaned regularly by the staff just that they make a lot of noise cleaning the bathrooms.

HOMEY YOUTH HOSTEL ENVIRONMENT”
GOOD Staff friendly, love the separately idea of Japanese style toilet. Water is enough strong. NOT GOOD ENOUGH Room is without window, so inside the room have dusty and pollution air. (Put a big air purifier in each room) OTHER Breakfast is just simple and normal (recommend buy from 7-11 and store inside the fridge)

Hello Tiew, Thank you for your comments and review :) The room you booked were four-bed dormitory rooms and we have fewer 4 people rooms with windows, so if you would like to have windows in your room, you could email us in advance and we will try our best to arrange a room with window for you :) or you could book a larger room, such as 6-bed rooms or 8-bed rooms, all of the rooms have windows inside. Sorry for you inconvenience. We hope to see you again!!! szutung
