This place really feels like home. I love the spacious common area, where you can watch TV or have a chat with the host. They also have free tea bags, so it's nice to rest after a day, sitting on the couch and tasting the Taiwanese tea. The shared bathrooms are very clean and provide the necessities you need. It's a good place worth the value. Definitely be back!

Good location (easy to find and close to lots of food options). Although it's a hostel, the fittings (beds and bathroom) feel very new and are super clean. Very secure: the front door, elevator, and rooms all require a passcode, which is issued when you check in (a unique passcode for each booking). The staff were helpful and pleasant, and very patient with my endless questions. They also saved me from my own stupidity by finding a phone charger that I could borrow. Automated self check-in and -out is on the right as you enter; there are multiple language options and you should be okay if you just follow the prompts. The hostel requires you to take off outdoor shoes before going upstairs. They provide reusable room slippers; I think they sanitize them between uses, but if that bothers you, remember to bring your own. Towels, toothbrushes, and earplugs (but not eye covers) are available for rental/purchase on the 5th floor. The 5th floor also has basic cooking facilities and a large fridge where you can leave food until 8 pm on the day you check out, and each bed has a small drawer with a lock (which I think you probably need to empty by 3 pm on the day you check out, though I didn't confirm this). You can leave suitcases, etc on the first floor until 8 pm the day you check out. The only real negative is the keypad for the room beeps every time sometimes enters, which I imagine could be annoying if you're a light sleeper and go to sleep early/wake up late. I didn't have any problems though.

Very close to the train station and there is a Youbike station nearby, so you can easily explore Chiayi by bike. Their is no elevator in the hostel, so try to avoid bringing heavy and big luggage. The staff was very helpful and nice.

Great location, close to station and night market. Very clean and comfortable. Coffee and (milk) tea free of charge. Breakfast is just toast with jam/peanut butter, but it is a nice extra. The hostel is especially spacious: the common area and showers are huge!

It's very close to night market and there is a park across the street, people working there speak a little english. If you are traveling on a budget, it's very practical for the bus station as well. Good for one night stay if you are ok with more needing a cheaper, more practical and well situated place to stay and can live with less comfort and hygiene standards.

The bunk beds are wide and have quiet head space to sit up comfortably. The women-only dorm and washrooms are protected with digital locks, which was extra helpful from the safety pov. The open kitchen and breakfast bar were really great esp if you are trying to catch an early bus to Alishan. The location is quite good by being within walking distance from Chiayi TRA station (TRA and not HSR... I made this mistake)
