옛스런 느낌의 운치있는 숙소

엘레베이터 없이 올라가는 좁은 계단으로 작은 가방 여행이면 괜찮은데 큰가방은 불편할 듯하다, 인포 아저씨는 친절하시고 숙소 사용법은 쉽고 편했다

4 nights leisure stay

Excellent hostel. Nice and helpful staff. Though 15 minutes walk to train station, the route is clear and direct. Good proximity to eateries of variety. Mosquito control may need pay attention at common room and bedroom. However, bathroom and toilets are clean and well equipped. The clothes drying area at roof top will be better with some lighting for use at night.

會推薦朋友來住!

公共空間乾淨,位置非常好,不管去哪裡都是走路也能到的距離! 有提供冷熱水飲用,洗沐浴乳跟卸妝棉及棉花棒、牙線棒、耳塞,也有醫藥箱。 老宅是沒有樓梯的,帶行李箱的人可能要稍微考慮一下,也有提供機車租借服務。 床都是有簾子可以拉起來,隱私形是夠的,但公共空間很舒服,座位區也都有插座能充電,待在公共可能會更舒適些。

Overall good!

Really nice staff, cool building and good location, however the facilities could use some maintenance/upgrade. Also, and I'm not sure if this has to do with Tainan or this place in particular, but it was by far the worst when it came to mosquitos compared to the other five or so cities in Tainan where I've stayed at similar cost hostels.
