Meander 1948

There's so much that I love about this hostel, I don't even know where to begin! Though it's near one of the farther exits of Taipei Main Station (at the underground mall zone), it's centrally and conveniently located: just a few minutes' walk from an exit with an elevator, and also near the airport MRT. The location is great: lots of shops, cafes, and restaurants nearby, including a 7-11 right next to the building. You can even walk to Dadaocheng in 10-15 minutes. The hostel is beautiful; it's a building with a history. I booked a bed in a dormitory room; the beds were properly partitioned — almost like I was staying in a capsule hotel. Each bed also comes with enough sockets for you to charge your devices, and there are partitioned shelves for your belongings, including a locker for valuables. Luckily, I had quiet roommates, so I was able to get a good night's sleep during my stay. Also, the shared facilities are clean and well-maintained; the common area is so cozy and lovely! On days when I was too tired to travel, it was nice just chilling in the common area and taking in the ambiance, or browsing through the infographic panels (about the building's history, as well as helpful info for first-time Taiwan travelers, like must-see attractions and must-eats). For breakfast, you get vouchers that you can use at four nearby partner restaurants. All serve local cuisine (though one also has Western food like sandwiches, in case Taiwanese food isn't to your liking), so breakfast gives you the opportunity to try Taiwan's delicious food! As a fan of Taiwanese food, especially breakfast food like shaobing and danbing, I was very happy to have tried a different partner restaurant for breakfast each day. The staff are very friendly and helpful; I appreciated all their help. I got so much value for money for my stay, and I genuinely enjoyed just spending time at Meander 1948.

The room and bathroom were clean. The housekeeping staff were helpful. Close enough to the Taipei main railway station to. walk there. There is a coin operated laundry, and a common room where we could eat our takeout meals. The hotel will store luggage up till 10pm

The staff is amazing. Our airline lost our luggage and the staff helped us over several days to get our luggage back. They were very helpful and friendly. The room was very clean and quite modern. Only the sink outside of the bathroom needed some getting used to, but it was okay. The location is great, the main station and many shops are close by and it is very easy to get to all the attractions. Also, the hotel is easy to find. We had a room with privat bathroom on the top floor and a balcony with a nice view. Also, you can get free drinking water in the common area, which was great as we hadn't to search for a store every evening to get water. We really liked our stay here!

Location is very central and lots of restaurants nearby voucher provided for food (you can pay extra if you want) in inside cafe bathrooms very clean and towel provided daily, dryer. Bed was ok, but good enough. Lobby with a kitchen was comfortable. locker for luggage is provided. Eric (staff member) was very helpful and attentive. Cleaning ladies did a great job

Hotel very clean, staff work well to keep it that way and also the other guests who I shared the facilities with during my stay were respectful. AC was good however this is able to be controlled by the people in dorm. Which is bad, some people may turn it off or up, I personally like it cold but the hostel should set it at a middle ground maybe 20c?? Most time it was set to 22-24 which was bearable. I slept well.
