Lots of facilities...full kitchen, self-laundry...room was the size of the bed without any other space to move, bathrooms were filthy...they have a strange system where guests are expected to keep shared bathrooms clean themselves...seems like if they don't (which of course they won't), no one else will...

Overall a good place. Small but cozy with a definite community vibe. People are nice. Facilities are a little worn but not overly so. Linens could use an upgrade but nothing like I've seen at other places. Overall worth the $.

Good place to meet people - nice lounge area. This is the 3rd hostel I've stayed in in Taipei, and my favourite. The little things are important - there's always free drinking water and toilet paper!! (unlike other places I could mention). Also internet is free - no pumping $10 coins into a box... Banks, cheap places to eat, computer market and Taiwan Beer beer hall all in neighbourhood!

Great price, great location, and a great atmosphere. Staying at the World Scholar House and hanging out with the supervisors and other roomies was an extremely fun and enjoyable experience! If you're interested in saving a buck and just having a good time, I definitely recommend this hostel. I was a little disappointed with the cleanliness and order of the main living areas and bathrooms, but the rooms weren't anything to complain about. The A/C and internet also worked well in my room. Basically, if you're a picky person, you really shouldn't be staying at hostels anyway haha. I'll be going back for sure! :)
