廁所是共同使用,真的要保持清潔及衞生!

房間靠大馬路,隔音不好;晚上很吵,影響睡眠。 女廁沒有常清理保持乾淨,房客下午應該是瀉肚子弄髒了馬桶到隔天早上還是沒有清理!女廁只有三間,兩間都有屎;只有一間是清潔的!有告知櫃臺人員,但沒有馬上清理。 沒有任何關於台中旅遊資料可以從這裏找到,沒有提供!

Comfortable stay in a new hostel

I came from Taipei by bus to Taichung and Stray Birds was in a good location. Buses around Taichung are free using the transportation card (up to certain distance). The hostel opened just recently this year and everything was pretty new! The lobby was so Instagrammable and homey and I love it! Took some shots for inspiration for my future home, haha. The room was also comfortable and I wish I stayed longer! It's near to tourist sights such as Fengjia Night Market and the famous ice cream shop Miyahara! All in all, a good stay and I wished I stayed longer!
