Nice hostel between airport and city center
I do not often give ratings, but this place simply deserves exception. The most cosy hostel I have ever stayed in (and there were many :)).Great location, close to the airport, with direct buses to city center and railway station, night market and convenience store right behind the corner. Quiet, clean, roomy, with well equipped kitchen. Superfriendly staff. Late evening check in and early morning check out was no problem. Budget price. Cool place to stay for backpackers, students, or just anyone. May be a bit tricky to find as it is invisible from the street.

Very nice hostel!! Clean, comfortable environment, have good facilities and good services, sufficient light, friendly and helpful staffs, such as warming home. Nearby night market and public transports, just 5-10 mins to walk. I will choose this hostel again if I go to Taichung in next time and must recommend to my friends.

Great location, good place to stay. Unfortunately, the female dorms were completely booked, but the mixed dorms were great. No troubles at all. Lockers provided in room. Kitchen, outdoor and indoor sitting areas.
