Service - There was no one at front desk when we came. But good thing their contact number is easy to call, someone picked up right away and acknowledged our arrival. At the same time, another stuff already came to open the door for us and accommodate us (not sure if he just went out quickly then we coincidentally arrived or he saw us or was told to go back since we called). Anyway, it was no biggie.
Note that their front desk has a certain operating hours so make sure to contact them ahead of time if you’ll be late or be early for your check-in or reach out to them within their operating hours for your concerns.
Location - it’s still still considered good even though there’s a few minutes walk to get into Ximending street compare to other dorm type that are already within the Ximending street. Given its price. It’s still good. Cause I think this is the cheapest among the ones we booked.
Cleanliness - this is where they have to WORK ON for real. Like there are small spaces in the sides of the bed (the bed did not fit the entire bed case) so you’ll see the sides, it has dust, hair, cotton buds, and especially once you pull it up. The underbed even have a biscuit. Like they probably just change the beddings and pillow cover.
Just want to share also what I overheard when we were checking out. The other staff was telling the guest that he saw her putting i think something that shouldn’t be included to the basket. (The guest was also a foreigner, japanese I think, not sure, and the staff was like telling her he saw her do it. I mean, sure, if the lady was trying to deny it, she was obviously trying to save herself from embarrasment, it’s not like she stole something or broke a rule. Like I was wondering why he had to keep on scrubbing it on her face that it was her who did it. What did he want the guest to feel? Or do? That discussion kinda took about 3-5 minutes lol. Though the staff said it was fine afterall. I think he just wanted to make a point and instill to that lady that he did see her.)
Anyway, another thing is that I wish we got reminded that there’d be a room cleaning service. Cause we booked a 6-bed room for the 6 of us so we won’t have to share with a stranger. So we were expecting that it’s basically considered as a private room for the 6 of us. So we did leave our luggages open. Had we known, we would’ve of course closed them before leaving.
Like I might or might not have lost something, and I would not realize it. I personally, don’t remember all the stuff I got in my luggage. Though I’d always bring the important stuff with me like the passport, wallet, ids. But what if I still have other important stuff that I can’t bring with me every time i go out? Like a macbook, or another gadget, or spare IDs, or my other wallet with my country’s money in it, etc.
Will I stay here again? Yes, especially if I need a cheap place to stay. If they got the cheapest rate available from the time I’m booking then yes.
They got lockers beside your bed like normal dorm type. But I think it’s bigger than usual. Like it could fit a handcarry(?) didn’t get to try though. But looks like 1 handcarry luggage could fit.
