    “Wonderful Place”

    Being at the train station, it was super easy to find and incredibly convenient, especially with the Tourist Information centre right next door. Was a little hard to find originally, until I realised it was in the Family Mart! I loved that there were nightly activities organized by the hostel, such as leather keychain making and baking cookies. The host was also really nice, telling me and a couple other travellers the different places we have to visit, and even drawing on a map for me. The room was nice and cool, letting me sleep comfortably. The curtains provided enough cover for privacy and there is a personal lamp in each bed. Definitely would stay here again if I return to Tainan!

    “Is a happy place to stay and experience! ”

    This is the funnest place to be stayed and experienced! Location is next to railway station and convenience store (family mart) is just located on the ground floor (imagine you open the door and you got your own personal store feel) The owner is an enthusiastic and passionate person as he will organized and personally guide you will different themed workshop from 9pm-10pm daily (that’s they way how we make friend as communication among travelers are hard to be found in Taiwan backpackers hostel) 5 stars for the hard work and nicely maintained environment! Well you can’t get these hospitality with this price ya. Kudos!

    “The location is great.”

    The location is very good as it is right next to Tainan Station. It is inside a FamilyMart. Every evening, the owner runs a workshop with those who are interested. There is a washing machine, making laundry easy. Laundry detergent is provided for free. Breakfast is self-serve, and you just need to wash your dishes afterward. There are eggs and toast available.

    “Recommended hostels for workation”

    A hostel that is reasonably priced. The good points are that it is close to the station, and there are restaurants and a night market within walking distance. The staff is friendly. The common area is spacious, and the Wi-Fi worked without any issues, making it perfect for a workation. The shower room can't be called clean, but the water pressure and temperature were fine. The concerning points are that the front desk is on the third floor, but there is no elevator, making it difficult to carry luggage up. Also, the shower room only had a fan, and during times when there were no staff present, the air conditioning in the common room was turned off, making it very hot.
