Robert
I loved my stay at Ximen Wow! It was my first time staying in a dorm setup, but I was pleasantly surprised. The double bed was spacious and comfortable, with thick quilts and privacy curtains. The shared bathroom was always available and well-maintained. The location on Ximen Walking Street was perfect, with easy access to stores, street food, and milk tea. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the daily breakfast was the best I've had at a budget accommodation. a great atmosphere and experience.
I totally recommend this hotel.

The location of the hostel was superb, just a few steps from Ximen Station and right in the heart of Ximending. There were shops and restaurants available everywhere, making it convenient for young families like us. the staffs were also very accommodating, allowing us to have a late check-in and leave our luggage even after check-out. We were able to explore the area without any worries. the hostel had comfortable beds and a cozy lounge area, adding to the overall ambiance.
Felt at ease, no reason to complain.

The beds were surprisingly spacious and comfortable, with thick privacy curtains that made it feel like you had your own private room. the shared bathroom was decent and I never had to wait to use it. the daily breakfast was impressive with a variety of free options like bread, peanut butter, eggs, and coffee.
Finding the entrance was a challenge and the misleading passageway didn't help. the mattress was way too thin and it felt like I could feel every coil of springs underneath.

ximen wow hostel never fails to amaze me! the welcoming staff recognized me from my previous stay and remembered my 'packing spot'. it's conveniently located with lockers for storage and a cozy common area. i love the privacy in the dorm rooms with curtains around the bed, and the 24h reception is always responsive.

I had a great stay at the hostel. The location was perfect, just a few steps away from Ximen MRT and a few blocks away from the famous HALAL beef noodle restaurant. The bed was nice and comfortable, and the toilet and bathroom were clean. I appreciated the access card provided for room entry and the private safe. The staff was also helpful and accommodating. I would highly recommend this hostel.

I gotta say, staying at Ximen Wow was totally worth the money! The double bed in the dorm room was surprisingly spacious and comfy, and the privacy curtains made it feel like my own private room. The location was spot on, right in the middle of Ximending with tons of shops and restaurants nearby. The staff were also super friendly and helpful!
The hotel breakfast menu could use a little improvement by adding more variety.
