Great hostel! Rooms were a bit smaller than we imagined, but was impeccably clean for a hostel. Also, the beds were some of the most comfortable I have ever slept on. Our room for 4 people included a private bathroom equipped with a toilet and shower (also shampoo, towels, etc.), but the hostel also has a communal bathroom area which was also very clean. Location was also fantastic, less than 5 minutes walk from Yongkang Lu, which was laden with great little shops and food stalls, not to mention a Din Tai Fung! Also a 5 minute walk from the subway station, and located right next to the best Birkenstock outlet I have ever stepped foot in. Highly recommend (both the hostel and the birkenstocks). Definitely worth the price (again, of both).

The first floor of the building also has a security guard and you are required to chime the doorbell when entering after hours (I believe past midnight). But no worries, as the security guard was the nicest/cutest old man that my friends and I have ever met. He definitely was the highlight of my Taipei experience.
