Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
DID LIKE the services and immediate assistance provided from the staff and free bike rental and luggage storage. The male dorm room was spacious and quiet during my stay and you a sensor card to enter which us secure and nice. A passcode locker is available to each tenant. But please note that you need to prepare your own towel and tooth brush and toothpast. Dirty clothes? No woories coz you can pay for the laundry services if needed. Though the location it's a bit distant from the train and bus station, the nice walk along the Green River (Lu Chuan) is nice and soothing. Simple yet free continental breakfast with coffee is served so you may save more during the stay. But I was surprised to find that the face wash, shampoo, and shower gel were actually the SAME and the smell was not pleasant. If you do care about the scent, prepare your own travel kits. And the only young lady, Amy, of breakfast station, was quite friendly and hrlpful so it further added some points towards the accommodation experience. Thank you Amy for the nice breakfast talk. C ya next time ^^~

Overall comfortable stay. 8 bed dorm room has lockers for your backpack and belongings. Shoes are kept in shoe locker on 1st floor. Indoor hostel slipper must be worn. Lounge is spacious though access ends at midnight. Laundry access 24hrs. Breakfast is bread/toast with jam. Water, coffee, tea and juices are available all day. Carpets in stairway need vaccuming. Otherwise cleanliness is adequate. Location is close to bus lines, restaurant and train station.

Great location, very clean
This hotel has a great location near market streets and a 15 min walk to the train station. The place is very clean and has a nice area upstairs to hangout. Check-in is at 5 o'clock for some reason, so we waited upstairs. Don't be fooled by the "breakfast"... its just bread slices and corn soup. Overall, a nice place. We got a private room that even had a bath tub.

Medium satisfied
As a hostel style stay, I would comment below: Pros: free breakfast, clean environment, washine machine availability, shoes-off, public bathroom/shower is enough,well-equipped utilities Cons: small head reading light, mites in the sheet/duvet cover so I get allergic during my stay

Best choice for backpacker
Newly opened express hotel with clean and tidy rooms and toilets. Best choice for backpacker for its cheap price, convenient location (just 5 minute walk from Tai Chung train station) and comfortable environment. Best dorm I have ever seen with adequate privacy, as screen is available to make a enclosed space for every bed. Simple breakfast is provided free of charge. Highly recommended for backpackers around the world.

A nice stay
It is nice. There is a window in the room allowing fresh air, however, no fresh air duct was provided for each cubicle, ventilation will not be enough if the blind of the cubicle is lowered.
