Taipei Ximen Wow Hostel

Great location, near metro and convenient store. Nice bedroom, clean toilet.

I love Wow hostel. Especially the volunteers in the hostel are very helpful and friendly. They are the vibe.

I love the location within Ximending! Take the subway and stop at Ximen station (blue line). Take Exit 6 and just walk straight. The Wow Hostel is located just across the Mobile Police Station. There's a fruit stand before the space leading to the elevator. The hostel is on the 8th floor. I stayed in a female dormitory. Wide space. There is a locker that can also be opened using your room key. I find the toilet and bath clean. I didn't see any molds or dirty toilet. You can rent a towel for NTD 50, just leave it on your bed upon check our. The location is close to the craziness of Ximending with food and shopping options - and cafes and restaurants. The only downside for me is the receptionist. He appeared unfriendly. Every time I approached the desk, he seemed to be always irritated as he is doing something with the computer. I could be wrong but here's me wishing he'd be lighter especially that he works in a place where customer service is paramount. I would stay here again though if I come back to Taipei. I can ignore the receptionist. ;)

Aside from snoring guests, a loud KTV noise coming from floor below or above. Beds are tough hard. Waking up with a stiff neck for couple of days. Not a good night sleep for me this trip.  Location is good, just in the heart of Ximending with free coffee, water and cooking equipments for daily use.

This is the nice place.

Great location — right in the middle of Ximending and just a 5-minute walk from Ximen Station (Gate 6). Even on rainy days, you can easily make your way to the hostel without getting too wet. The space is clean and well-maintained, with the trash and shared washrooms cleaned daily. The balcony is a nice spot to relax at night, and the check-in/check-out process is super easy with minimal hassle. Would definitely recommend for a convenient and comfortable stay!
