The hostel location is really accessible. It’s nearby the train station, night markets and stores. And there’s a bar downstairs if you want to have a drink. The staff were all friendly and helpful especially Yaya and Alice. They helped me with directions if I want to go somewhere I’m not familiar with. Also, the place is very clean including the bathrooms. Facilities were complete— toiletries (shampoo, shower gel, make up remover, sunblock, etc.) laundry and drying area, wifi on each floors and hair straightener and dryers are available. They also gave me a free cake when they found out from my passport that it was my birthday 🥰

The hostel is located in the old part of Taipei, where all the traditional markets and ancient part of the city is just a stone away. It might look small from the outside, but I was amazed with how big the hostel is. Equipped with several showers and toilets, huge kitchen and common room. When I checked-in, it was too late for any personnel to be on site. However, they provided a thorough guide of self check-in from entry. No trouble of self check-in.

The property was ideally located. Very close to Ximending night market, train stations and bus stops as well as convenience stores. The owner managed to give me a bottom bunk which was great. I stayed there for the whole week and tbh I would’ve stayed longer.

    Easy to reach from the airport, within 3 minutes walking from Taipei Main station. Very very clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were modern too. The bunk beds were surprisingly spacious! I could fit my suitcase there (only standing up though) but there was some separate storage space for suitcases as well. Friendly and helpful staff, had a lovely time there and the hostel kept me safe during earthquakes..! :)

    Best hostel I've ever been to. Incredibly clean, amazing personel, great location, comfortable beds and good instalations. I absolutely recommend it, plus it's close to a Red Line Metro station, which will take you to Taipei City Centre directly.

    If you are a solo traveler and new to Asia like me Meander Taipei hostel is the place to be, to mingle and meet fellow travelers - the staff is exceptionally nice and goes out of their way to accommodate and make you feel at home far away from home! Super comfy beds, own curtain for your bunk bed for some extra privacy, the strongest/ best showers I have experienced on my travels ❤️and great location when exploring Taipei! Thank you team Meander for a wonderful stay ! I will be back !

    This is my wife's review: I loved everything. A great location very close to the metro station and a bike-sharing station too. The facilities offer everything you need for a good and safe stay (in a hostel). The beds were so comfortable and everything was working just fine. The shared bathroom was super clean. It really exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it, especially for a woman/girl traveling by herself.
