We Come Hostel

Location is not bad - tip: its easier to walk from Beimen Exit 2 (Tacheng Street), just a straight road down then turn right at a small carpark. Otherwise can also walk 10-15min from Zhongshan MRT or Taipei Main! There is a nice Taiwanese breakfast option to the right (尚雯早午餐) or a small coffee place that sells really affordable and nice sandwiches/french toast to the left (初作早餐 塔城店／企業外送/下午茶訂餐) Walking to Ningxia night market is super easy as well! Facilities are very well organised, toilets/showers/washing up area/hairdrying area/laundry room are all separated, everything is very clean and at the hairdryer station they even provide cotton pads with Bioderma micellar water and Cetaphil body lotion!! The common lounge has card games which I used with a few other hostel guests. It was fun and chill (: A more commercial hostel so employees are less personal, but they will definitely answer all your enquiries and ensure that you are well taken care of!

I stayed here twice - at beginning and end of my trip. First time was on 1st floor, 2nd time was on 6th floor (this was bit more expensive but was only option left as I booked last minute). Definitely pay a few more £ and try to stay on 6th floor (advertised as dorm room with balcony) - it feels like a totally different hostel - there is natural light (1st floor has none), social space/kitchen is nicer - in my experience people were actually socialising on 6th floor and I made some friends compared to 1st floor no-one really socialising (maybe just luck), and toilets are cleaner/more modern with Japanese style toilets that spray your bits squeaky clean (normal toilets on 1st floor). 1st floor was also nice to be honest and second time I was expecting to stay here but was just put on 6th floor which exceeded my expectations. Free hot/cold water dispenser/tap on both floors with free teas/coffees as standard per any decent Taiwanese hostel I stayed at. Adequate toilets/showers for guests throughout and never had to wait during my stay here. Overall very clean throughout so no complaints there. Good sized large private lockers on both floors (1st floor was key operated, 6th floor was more modern card operated). Has hairdryers free to use and some other complimentary toiletries. Has coin operated self-service laundry room and machines to use. Has free luggage store room before/after check in/out. Staff were mixed but generally friendly, one or two staff members bit cold but ok. During my second stay there was a young intern guy there (with green apron) - shout out to him he was great very friendly and helpful! Also the guy working with him who speaks decent English was also super friendly and helpful so big shout outs. Overall, probably my favourite hostel I stayed in Taiwan, would recommend and would stay again!

we stayed in the private 2 people bedroom up on the 7th floor. the room is on the smaller side and it has everyone we need. we like the common area a lot. we can’t eat or drink beverage other than water in the room but we can do that at the common area. the common area is just as comfortable and has everything we need such as plates, utensils, fridge and microwave. they also have water station for cold, cool and hot water. you can make tea or coffee instantly. with the reasonable price, you can’t go wrong with this place. being able to do laundry is a bonus. the dryer in Taiwan is not as powerful so even after 75 min of drying, you still need to hang the clothes to dry for a day afterwords. also, the laundry machines only takes 10 dollar coins, if you are doing laundry outside of the staffing period, make sure you got enough 10 dollar coins.

The common area on the 6th floor was quiet and relaxing. Tasteful decor. Everything in the property was super clean. Lots of useful small free stuff (like coffee, tea, swabs, floss, cotton swabs for removing make-up, make-up remover, moisturizer, etc.), or for 10 NTD (i.e. dirt cheap) toothbrushes with toothpaste, water, best ever sound dampening earplugs, etc. For 20NTD you can get various drinks on the honor system (take what you want and drop money into a box). Staff will print out your airline ticket (if you need or want paper). Will also call you a taxi to airport (1300 NTD). It is also possible to change (as soon as available) to a bed on the top or bottom of the bunk beds (if you are in dorm). They gently knock many times before entering the room for cleanings so that you have time to get properly dressed, or to hide in your curtain-drawn bunk bed. Large fridge where you mark your stuff. Never had anything stolen.

Clean, nice common facilities, friendly staff, not noise street
