We had a great time at the hostel, where we had the opportunity to explore taiwan from a local perspective and get to know more about taiwanese culture. We really enjoyed getting to know this country more and helping this wonderful team to maintain such a beautiful hostel. Thank you.

My experience at the hostel Traveler's Hostel in Tamsui, the hostel was absolutely terrific! I've had quite spontaneous plans and regardless what came up, Carrie was always really helpful and supported me in every way possible. The work hours were set beforehand and I got a thorough training of everything that needs to be done beforehand. The hostel itself is at a perfect location in Tamsui, only 2 minutes from the coastline with lots of great cultural sights and fun stuff to do around the area. I'd definitely recommend to stay there, it's more calm than staying in the hostel as well :)
