地點很棒，步行2分鐘可達捷運站，公車線也多。道路對面就是廣闊的花博園區，非常適合安排在圓山、士林此區的慢活之旅，好好漫遊綠地、河濱！ 櫃台親切有禮，房間、浴室很乾淨，頂樓交誼廳寬敞舒適，戶外尤其有氣氛(如圖)，連續兩晚我都在交誼廳閱讀、寫日記，感覺很自在～ 唯一待考慮的是價格偏高且不含早餐，一床住五六兩晚共1900元，幸好以國旅券折扣後，450元/晚。而旅館旁就是捷運和馬路，交通噪音會較大些。 若來台北的北半部，預算較寬，重視鄰近公園的綠意，這裡會是不後悔的好選擇！

評価が良かったので利用しましたが… *良かった点 フロントの兄さんが親切丁寧だった *悪かった点 1.予約時の部屋写真と全然違う。ドミトリーに慣れていない方には、誤解を招くだろう。写真の変更が必要かと。 2.泊まったのは最上階の4階でしたが、シャワーの出が一定でなく、着換えを置く棚も小さすぎて、それなりにテクニックがいる。 3.トイレでトイレットペーパーを流せないようで、特に女性は大変だと思います。

住宿環境與地理位置很好，但住在五樓，早上八點洗澡等了半個多小時都沒熱水，服務員居然要客人到二樓洗澡。每層居住人數多，衛浴只有兩間，使用上不甚便利。早餐等到九點去食用，已經有配料沒有，也不另外增加。

진짜 좋음. 침대가 너무 안락하고 한국인도 별로 없고 (거의 중국인인 듯) 아침도 맛있고 직원도 친절하고 화장실이랑 샤워실도 좋고 테라스도 멋있고 걍 이 돈에 이 시설이면 완전 혜자에요 하세요 그냥!
