This is my new standard for value-for-money. Let me start with the bathroom and toiletries as this is what most hostels don't get right. They have all the basic toiletries (shower cream, shampoo, conditioner, cotton buds) and they have items that girls can't live without (makeup remover, hair net, sanrio, pantyliner, napkin with wings, and napkin without wings, all neatly organized in the equally clean bathrooms). They even have hair straighteners in each bathroom, on top of the hair dryers available (take note that I used plural nouns)!!! The common area has all the games I like (darts, futsal, board games), musical instruments, books, and they have a wall full of destination recommendations! The staff are all helpful and considerate. They even offer free trips around the city. I also like how it's also very near Ximending Night Market, the best one in Taipei. I can't run out of good things to say about this place. It is the hostel to be. All that for only less than US$14/night! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would but since I can't, I just hope this review would encourage more people to book their stay in Meander!
