OwlStay Flip Flop Hostel Garden Reviews

I really enjoyed staying here despite the aesthetic overall design of the place. The rooms were clean. The free breakfast food is delicious. Aside from that it  friendly for new travelers because of its location. Walking distance from the Taipei main station. Plus its has a nice clean cute neighborhood were it also has so many convenient stores around the area.

Friendly staff, room‘s clean, booked one with elevator which is I definitely did not regret.

It’s my first time staying at hostel, and I’m quite worried actually. After reached there, it was nothing I need to worried about! Location: it’s super duper near to Taipei Main Station (Bus interchange) within 5mins walking distance. You can exchange for metro, bus interchange, high speed rail or even airport MRT at this area, just make sure you do some homework before that to prevent lost 🤣 There’s some convenient mart nearby, and a small breakfast restaurant just right beside the hostel. You will get a breakfast voucher TWD 100 for each morning, just top up the difference after the deduction. You may save lots of money for breakfast, the food was great and have options,try it! Cleanliness: the thing I most worried, but overall it’s quite clean. For 2nd and 3rd floor the toilet and shower room is mixed use, 4th floor only for women. So far, I’m just using the 2nd floor as it’s just the same floor as my stays. Everything is good. 👍 There’s a bookstore inside the building, common area is at the same area with bookstore. You can pass your own sweet time reading books with minimum purchase of one drink inside the bookstore. I made some new friends too during the visit, next time will visit again.

This hostel is so pretty! I enjoyed my stay here: beautiful style, nice breakfast, good service and amenities, not crowded. The single room was very small but not a big issue for me... the main problem was the noise coming from the road at night, which affected my sleeping. Those rooms facing the road are only for heavy sleepers!

It’s my 2nd time in flip flop hostel, but first time experience room with sharing basis. All i can say it’s really comfortable and meet my expectations. Room is super clean and cosy. At night, it might have a little noise from the street, light sleeper might need a pair of earplugs (and the hostel is very thoughtful to provide one for each of us). For me as muslim, it’s also very convenient to stay at 3-bed room, quite an ample space to perform my prayer without disturbing anyone. The water pressure in the shower room is good, the only downside is they don’t have bidet in toilet. Also, they provide breakfast voucher, the milk tea from the cafe is good and i didn’t know the combination of apple and tuna in the sandwich can be so good too. Anyways i hope it’s convince everyone to book this hostel, and i bet you won’t regret it! Happy travel everyone!

Location is just steps away from 京站. Hostel is clean & comfortable, one of the better ones in Taipei which is reflected on its price. Breakfast is good too but if can be priced w/o bf even better. Bed is comfortable & towel is provided. What can be improved is the rather rigid check in/key collection time, only after 3pm & before 9pm iirc. Would be great if keys can be left for own collection if unable to make it back within stipulated time since documents has been checked at reception b4 3pm. A simple keypad lock for self check-in/key collection can easily solve this problem.

It is convenient which is near the metro station and the staff are nice and friendly . I like the vibe of this hostel!

It was a good place to travel around Taipei City. The restaurant on the first floor was also clean. I will be back soon. Thank you.

Very convenient and clean place, helpful staff, tasty breakfast,

Really close to station and comfy

customer service is good

What a fantastic hostel. The room is very clean and odorless. Each bunk bed came with a security locker that can only be open up when you swipe your room card. The common toilet and shower rooms are super clean. However, it will be great if the temperature of the hot water for shower can be consistent, not jumping from hot to cold within a while. The breakfast quality is great. Their BLT sandwich and milk tea is superb. And, most importantly, their outdoor environment within the compound is so relaxing where you can inhale the fresh air.

so comfortable and easy to find the station for transportation.

I couldn't check in regarding the Covid19 policy. However, the receptionist was so kind and help to find new hotel instantly.
