Flip Flop Hostel - Garden

OwlStay Flip Flop Hostel Garden is a fantastic choice for a quick trip to Taipei. Its location is a major plus, as it's just a short walk from Taipei Main Station, making it incredibly easy to get around the city. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. The hostel itself is clean and well-designed, with a unique garden and a cozy bookstore-cafe that adds a lovely touch to the stay. You'll find it's great value for the money, with a delicious breakfast provided to start your day off right.

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.

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’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!

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.

generally the room, toilet and public area are clean but small. The specialty of the hostel is actually the two-level public area that can allow you to have a sip of coffee and chill with reading some good books (they provide as there is a bookstore but you can lend it too). There is a good breakfast shop that provides warm and good breakfast! Is near to Taipei Train Station, surrounded by many restaurants, easy access to food and entertainment, also transportation.

This is my second time staying at Flip Flop Hostel, but my first time experiencing a shared room. I can honestly say it was really comfortable and met my expectations. The room was super clean and cozy. At night, there might be a bit of noise from the street, so light sleepers may want to use earplugs — which the hostel thoughtfully provides for each guest. As a Muslim traveler, I found it convenient to stay in the 3-bed room. There was ample space to perform my prayers without disturbing anyone. The water pressure in the shower was good, though the only downside is that the toilet doesn’t have a bidet. They also provide a breakfast voucher — the milk tea at the café was delicious, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good the apple and tuna sandwich combo tasted! I hope this helps convince others to book this hostel. I’m sure you won’t regret it. Happy travels, everyone!

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!
