Nicest landlady ever, treating guests with free food, helping with the laundry and creating an overall unbelievable welcoming atmosphere. If you are lucky u can hear her daughter, who majored in music, play the piano in the evening. Hostel is located directly by the lotus pond and 1.5km away from the high speed rail station zuoying, so an ideal base to explore Kahsiung.

Location, location and location. It’s about 3 mins walk from a subway station. And there is a huge park and a night market in the area, and I enjoyed the vibe as it’s very Taiwanese.

The sauna complex and the swimming pool were great and they were included in the room price. As well as the breakfast, which enough to choose of. Next to that there was the spacious lobby, friendly staff and good location. 7 minutes walk to the train and metro station and tot the bus stop for the bus to Kenting. Af lot of shops are around in a nice area of Kaohsiung. It was a great stay for a good price.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location and relatively cheap, less than 5 mins walk from the Sanduo Shopping District train station and pretty central to most places in Kaohsiung. The common area is pretty good, there’s tea and coffee provided and places for people to sit and eat or relax. There’s also a good sheltered laundry area on the top floor where you can hand wash and dry your clothes.
