I highly recommend this hostel !! The staff is lovely and super kind, the work is very chill and flexible and the district is nice. I was supposed to stay 2 weeks and I ended up extending because it was really cool Thank you to the staff for hosting me and I hope to come back next time I'm in Taiwan! 谢谢 ☺️

I had a wonderful experience volunteering at May Rooms NTU. The work was straightforward and never took more than two hours a day. The beds are comfortable and spacious, and the hostel's location is great, with loads of food options nearby. The staff were super friendly and flexible if I needed to change my working days. I'd also really recommend this hostel if you're learning Chinese, as the staff all made an effort to speak to me in Chinese once they knew I was learning, and even let me explain things to local guests sometimes!

I absolutely loved my time at mayrooms ! The work is really easy and the staff is really nice. I got offered some Taiwanese pomelos to taste which was very thoughtful. If I'm ever back in Taipei, I'll volunteer here again for sure 😊

My time at May Rooms NTU was super comfortable! The staff were all really nice and always happy to help whenever I had any questions. The work mainly consists of easy housekeeping and cleaning, and it usually gets done very quickly. On one of my working days, there were more rooms to clean than usual, so it took around 3 hours. The staff bought us lunch that day, which really showed their appreciation for our work:) Thank you! They are very organized and the schedule and work tasks are clear.

Mayrooms was a great experience. Staff was always great to chat with while helping out and hanging around the hostel. The staff would even help out with my mandarin if they had a moment which was super helpful and I appreciated it a lot! I even got to learn the hokkien saying for good morning - “gâo chá” :) Responsibilities were as detailed and work was never a drag. Things moved quickly and the routine cleaning/housekeeping was easy to pick up. Sleeping arrangements were clean, cool, and comfortable. Overall a really pleasant time!
