Based on the low price, it is worth of the money with comfortable and low-budget stay. Probably the best that you can get in such a crowd district.

The location is far away enough from most of the Xiamending shops to where noise is not an issue. But the location is convenient enough to everything. 10 mins from the subway .

Thank you to all the staff for being friendly and polite. The hotel staff were very friendly and when I asked about something I didn't understand they tried to understand my poor English, which I was very grateful for. There were trash cans in various places, the hotel was clean, and the bed was fluffy and comfortable. The only bad points are that it's hard to find the location (where the bath mat is and where the slippers and shoes are at the entrance) and the rooms are small. Since the price is cheap, I guess that's unavoidable. I would like to stay here again the next time I go to Taiwan.

Very nice hostel, only thing lockers are tiny no point having them cant fit a backpack in there. Also whilst the mattress is very soft it is so thin its like sleeping straight on the wood. That being said would still stay again if I was in Taipei. Location also excellent

第一次來到,透過Google Maps尋找10分方便。 工作人員好快咁幫我完成check-in程序,意想不到嘅係工作人員會帶我遊酒店嘅環境。 工作人員10分友善,有任何問題都好快幫我解決。 地下一樓,有一個很大的公共空間,可以俾大家食飯,飲咖啡,或是認識新朋友。 本人覺得很新穎,因為好少旅客會用到這公共空間。但這裏的情形不一樣,很多人會利用這空間傾談,認識新朋友。 有時候我有點不知所措,因為有一啲住客太熱情,比較喜歡說話。 這裏很休閒,晚上10分寧靜,並沒有任何習性和噪音。隔音的設備不錯。

電梯抖動問題。

應該是住宅整個是老建築,電梯在上下樓的抖動有些大,入住第二天有發現電梯卡在4樓位置,而電梯門一直在開開關關,無法正常關閉運行,希望旅館能與其他住戶討倫電梯的維護問題。

Meander hostel has the best friendly staff who answered all my questions with useful info and quickly. It has the best Lobby area for social activities amongst residents who are mostly internationals. It is near the subway blue and green line in a 10 mins walk. It’s located in the famous Xiamen district therefore everywhere lots of happenings and Activities. Such as concert/ signing at the street. major stores are H&M, Adidas , Nike, etc I would recommend meander

共有エリアや部屋や水周りは綺麗なのですが、エレベーターに乗る時の階段だけが臭くて汚いのと、ベッドのカーテンレールが壊れてたのが残念でした。 それとハンガーあると尚良いと思います。 バスマットは替えも常備されてて、そこは嬉しかったです。 それと1Fロビーでコーヒーやお茶がフリーで置いてあったのが良かったです。 スタッフさんは若い人しか居ませんでした。少し日本語を話せる女の子が居て、一生懸命説明してくれましたが、基本的にスタッフ同士での談笑の声が大きくて少し不快でした。台湾はそれが普通なのでしょうか、、、? 龍山寺から歩いて行けるし階段以外は綺麗なので、また利用するかもです。
