沒有一般常見隔音不好,水量太小或是電視不能看的問題,房間出乎我意料的沒有很小,乾淨無異味,價格OK,位置靠台中第二市埸,騎摩托車很多市區景點或台中火車站都在30分鐘內,雖在綜合商業大樓,但有電梯直達10 F,不會有出入複雜的問題,非常喜歡推薦大家😀

Very clean good-sized room. There is a fairly specious lounge area with a large communal table where you can eat your own food or get some work done, with no TV. There is a computer that you can use to watch some YouTube. They outsource their laundry service, so no laudry facilities at the premises. Lots of eateries at the doorstep. Complimentary good qualify coffee available.

Very good experience and will come again!

Very good hotel, the manager treats all the guests like friends! The location is ok, but just a bit too much food stands, so the pedestrian road condition is not perfect.The hotel is very quiet and it worth the money! Highly recommended!

五樓中間的沐浴間門鎖有點故障鎖不太起來。洗衣機、烘衣機各只有一台,容易和其他旅客使用時間相衝,連帶使等待時間變久。但是住宿地點離火車站很近。

整體隔音好,聽不到隔壁房間的聲音(不過門隔音不太好,如果外面有人大聲說話會聽到)。房間也乾淨(基於環保如你沒有先要求不提供每日清潔,我沒有使用過過服務)。房間沒有臭味,洗澡時水溫也穩定

雖然hostel 位於的大樓其他樓層是娛樂場所,但其實也沒那麼可怕,hostel的電梯是單獨的,所以其他樓層的顧客也進不來。 hostel 設備很簡單,沒有內附早餐,但有交誼廳和簡單的免費茶水可使用,現在因應環保政策所以不附拖鞋和牙膏牙刷等。 由於連住兩晚,所以隔天房務人員還有進來整理床舖,有感受到hostel 對於整潔方面的要求 枕頭很軟而且一張雙人床竟然有附4個枕頭!睡得很爽 hostel 的樓下就是一整條的中華路夜市,晚上想吃宵夜不用跑太遠,但音量不吵雜 整體來說以這個價位來說住宿品質算中等了,可以推薦。
