Lovely to spend some time at this hostel! I felt the trust of the team in carrying out my tasks and if any doubt the staff was always super helpful. Besides that, plenty of time to stroll around cute Tamsui and admire the sun falling into the river! Thank you all 😍

I loved my stay in Tamsui, it is a beautiful area. I recommend visiting it. The hostel is a few steps away from the Old Street and the riverside. Tasks are very well explained. The staff keep things professional and helpful. Time passed in a flash, I wish I could have stayed longer!

I LOVED my experience here. All of the girls at the front were so beyond kind. Schedule stayed the same. It was hard work but honestly it goes by quickly. Very grateful for my experience here.

Everyday you start at 10 (except your days off of course) you start on top floor all the way to first. You clean the beds that checked out and then do each floors bathrooms:)

My room was vey comfortable!! Showers were nice & they also have shampoo/ body wash. In the room they have curtains and also a light for you in the bed !!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
