    Since it’s in the basement there is no lift. Have to carry up and down your luggages. There is also lifter for the luggage if needed

    It has sauna and onsen services. Strategic location between Kaohsiung main station and Meilidao station. Provides breakfast. There’s another branch just nearby Kaohsiung main station.

    The whole hostel is located in a basement, so there isn’t any natural light and the ceilings are a little low in reception . ( not a problem since you are just going there to sleep though !) The shower and pool area could’ve been cleaner. Because the area is so moist, they do have a couple of dehumidifiers set up , but there was a lot of peeling paint on the ceiling…looked like it was ready to fall down. Sadly, I didn’t think to take a picture … Only one outlet for one device in the rooms Checkout is earlier than most hostels …10am . But you can extend it to 11 AM if you pay 100NT or leave a five star review.

    The men’s and women’s areas were completely separated the moment you enter off reception. The hallways to the privates and dorms are really spacious so it doesn’t feel cramped. The showers and bathrooms also felt more spacious than other hostels and the added bonus was that they had a sauna room as well as a heated pool. The hostel is located in the basement, so I think this allowed the facilities to be a little larger than a regular hostel, which was nice. Breakfast was ok too! Congee and toast options . Room was comfortable Oh and they had comfortable pajamas !

    Privat room was not really privat since the wall is not fully closing. You can hear everything from the hallway and could have a phonecall or something. The sauna was not really hot and the spa area didn't invite to stay and relax

    Value for the money was very fair deal. Everyone was friendly and it was clean.

    Room partition isn’t sound proof so it is easy to hear sounds/voices from other rooms

    The room and bathroom are clean. Air conditioner is also cool. The single room is not that big but not too small either, enough for one person and to put huge luggage. Toiletries and towel are provided so no need to worry

    The room had a gap at the top so light from the corridor and sound from other rooms came through. They provide earplugs though and I used an eye mask. My room only had one plug outlet. Breakfast was quite simple, congee and bread and spreads but at least something.

    The spa. Great facility with 4 pools with different temperature, sauna and steam room. Needed it after a long day sightseeing. The checkin staff was friendly and recommended me where I could buy a plug adapter. Room was clean. Sheets and towels were fresh.

    The sinks & toilet facilities were all clean. The issue was the shower & bath area. More an issue with the molding and peeling of the ceiling & walls. Very unappealing & concerning, for health reasons.

    I arrived with 2 cases, the entrance is on top of a large staircase. just as I was trying to figure out how to get my large bulky suitcase down the stairs the recpetionist had already come upsatirs to assist me. Same for when I checked out the staff automatically went to get my bag and help me take it up the stairs. The set up is big spacious and chill, and the berooms are compfy with enough space for opening & sorting suitcases.

    Not all reception staff speak English. I was lucky when I arrived that the staff understood me, but for the rest of the stay, the staff didn't speak English. Nonetheless, all staff are accomodating and courteous.

    The facilities of the Inn is superb! It is clean and tidy. Great for backpackers and for short time visits to Kaohsiung.

    Not the hotel's fault, it might have been a one time thing but the ambience in the onsen was to say the least, seedy. I only went once during my 2 day stay and I saw some naughty behavior from some of the guests. Unless that's your thing I wouldn't choose this place based on the onsen.

    Love the concept. You get your privacy with your mini room and still pay hostel prices. Breakfast was ok. One of the selling points for me was the included onsen (hot and cold pool, sauna) but that came with unexpected extras.

    There is a big gap at the top of the room so you could hear everything. Like EVERYTHING. The night bevor leaving a guy next to me packed his things at 00.30 am and waked up everybody... You can feel every spring in the matress....

    The Spa Area was really nice and helped to relax after a long day. There are multiple pools with different watertemperatures. From ice-cold to super-hot. Super good value for your money and close to the station.

    The room was smaller than expected and the photos gave me the mistaken impression that it was bigger.

    The breakfast was a standard Taiwanese style breakfast, with rice porridge, preserved vegetables, and some fruits. I would have hoped for some protein source like nuts and eggs too, since I don't really eat a lot of carbs.

    The bathroom was separate from the bedroom, and my room was way smaller than in the pictures advertised.

    They were relatively well-ventilated, and the bathrooms were well-maintained. There was also an onsen for the guys, although it was busy mostly. Breakfast was basic, so it would be better if the menu was more varied.

    The property is hard to find, but it’s forgivable because the amenities outweighs the negative.

    The main advantage of this property is the onsen-like amenities for guests who want to relax. The location is also within a city center, so it’s not a problem roaming nearby tourist places. The property has a big common area which is excellent for travelers who work.
