“Superb”

Good place to stay just next to the train station with cool common space and great events to entertain the guests :)

“excelent budget hostel righ at Tainan Train Station”
21 Mar 2025
Excellent, though a little bit worn hostel with an unique charm right at the Tainan Train Station.

“Just book this hostel if you want to visit around Tainan city”

Absolutely the best and most thoughtful hostel I've stayed in from my years of visiting Taiwan! The owner knows what backpackers need, especially towards those who don't understand Mandarin. All the signs and notices are in English. Cute little cards in bilingual about different popular destinations in Tainan, making transportation for foreigners in Taiwan a tad bit easier. Very thoughtful! There are also free activities each night, and I had so much fun learning how to roast your own coffee beans and also make some friends along the way. The owner would also provide lots of good tips and suggestions for visiting Tainan, so don't miss out on the 1st night like I did. Location, location, location. Can't get better location than right next to train station. And it is very funny that the entrance is inside a convenient store, watching shoppers wondering about this mysteries orange door of hostel gave me quite a chuckle. IONIC HAIR DRYER IS A GOD SEND!! My messy short hair can finally have 2 good days during my trip lol. Free washing machine with detergent provided, and NTD$50 for dryer. Shampoo and shower gel are also provided. Fridge, coffee machines, free tea bags, free simple breakfast. I feel like got way more than I paid for. Bunk bed with curtains, personal lockers , lockable dorm room, separate bathroom for ladies and gents. Earplugs, toothbrush and towel for NTD$20 if needed. 10 out of 10 would stay here again next time I visit Tainan!

It's literally next to the train station. You leave the station and basically walk into the hostel. Great location

“My stay was great! The location was superb.”

The location was superb, just west of Tainan Railway Station. You enter through the FamilyMart, and the staff are friendly. The place has great facilities and they also offer an extra activity for visitors at 9 PM, which is really cool!

The staff is really friendly, and almost every night have free activities. The convince is unbelievable... I can't imagine I only living within 10 meters to Tainan Station, but I came here in high speed train... What a pity. By the way, although it is near to train station, I don't think it noisy at all.

“Excellent value”

Price was excellent. Location literally within the family mart next to the station was brilliant. Was literally closer than the taxi rank.

Great location next to the train station. The main door is inside a shop, which is quite unusual, but convenient is you want to grab a quick snack or a beer from downstairs.

“decent stay, great location”
