2/10 Poor

Disgusting!
room is not very clean but the worst of all is their cleaner didn't even change sheets on the bed. very very gross. without even getting on the bed I can see many hairs on top of the pillow case and blanket sheets. surely enough after I flip the blanket and turn over the sheets there are more hairs under the blanket on the sheets and under the pillow. hairs of all length and even body hair.....I really want to throw up when I saw it. however, it was really late and the office had closed already so I had to use Kleenex to pick up all the gross hair and throw away the hairs myself and use the towels ( thank god at least the towels are clean) one on top and on one on the bottom and one on my pillow to sleep. I don't care how cheap the price is but the sheets and pillow/blanket case need to be change after every guest. Stay here if you like sleeping with stranger's hair and germs. otherwise Do not stay here!!!

Convenient location near Fengjia Market
The hostel was not as difficult to find, if you had read the reviews by other travellers before. The check-in was at a cafe in the alley and the rooms were just down the road. Location is great and near Fengjia Night Market, just a 5 minutes walk away. If you plan to visit other attractions in Taichung itself, you'd have to get around by bus, which is comfortable, but takes quite a long time to arrive and travel to where you'd want to go. Room was comfortable, but had a slight smoke smell when we first got in. Not too bad after you leave the fan and AC on for a while. There are no lifts for the hostel too, so you'd have to carry your luggage up the flight of stairs. Toilet and room were clean. Breakfast is not provided, but you can order something from the cafe every morning. It is nothing to shout about, but fills your stomach. Not a bad place to stay if you just need a place to rest that is near Fengjia Night Market.

Very near to feng chia market
Rooms is located a few streets away from the cafe... Owner has a few units around the area... Anyway the cafe staff has manuals directions for reference... Room and toilet is clean and comfy.... Only feedback is that wifi is weak... Had to rely on my own data plan all the time...

Friendly service with great location
Stayed at 2 different rooms during my 4 nights stay. When my friend and I first check in, the room was only available at 7pm and the themed room I have booked for is unavailable for the first night. So we had to settle in a 4-pax non-themed room which is really too small (no walking space if you open up 2 luggage on the floor) if there were really 4 pax. I can't say if it is as squeezy for the themed 4-pax room. The 2-pax themed room for my remaining 3 nights was pretty decent - clean beds and neat tidy room. Aircon was a little unstable, and they did not change my towels and did not refill the water in the room but I did not raise this with the hostel as they were not issues with me. Overall, this hostel is recommended for the superb location (imagine fengjia night market just 2 blocks away) and the very pocket-friendly price. And also the friendly service (drinks on the house when we were waiting for late room), if you need any directions you could ask the hostel service anytime. They are available at the check in (which is in a café next building) from 9am to 10pm.

Overall alright for the price you pay
Location is considered good as it is quite near to Feng Jia Night Market. Though place is quite deep in the alley, I think it is quite safe as there is sufficient lights. As mentioned by other traveller, room further from the stair has very poor wifi reception. Overall, the room is not bad given the price paid.

Great location, just a few minutes walk away from the bustling Feng Chia night market. The room is cosy and it is very clean. A pity our wifi did not work properly. We cannot use the wifi from our room and instead had to walk to the common corridor in order to get the wifi.
