Everything is just a train-ride away. Average place and very affordable. Street food are just a few steps away. Near the the central station for the buses and train. The place is quite clean though some areas are under renovation.

Very close to Taipei Train Station. We chose a room that is facing the back lane and hence is quiet though the hotel is located in a very busy location. Nice and clean, close to supermarkets, eateries etc. No breakfast provided but it is not really necessary since there are so many eateries around. The counter staff are nice and... More

Liked: Great location! Disliked: Smelly tofu store nearby... the smell is awful but once you step into the hotel lobby, you can’t smell it anymore. Location: This hotel truly great for its location. The airport bus drops you at the Taipei Main Train Station (Railway and MRT metro), High Speed Railway and the main bus interchange. Exit M8 from the... More

Whenever I visit Taipie, YMCA is my first choice of accommodation. This time we stayed in a superior triple room for 4 nites. The lower floors after renovation is better, the room is very clean and big enough for 3 of us. Their internet reservation is very user friendly with quick response each time. Well done and keep in up.

Stayed at this hotel in June 2012 while visiting Taiwan. This is your basic no frills type of hotel as would be expected for a "Y". Relatively easy check-in with staff being pretty friendly and helpful in givivng directions. Convenient downtown location right across from the Taiwan Rail station which connects to the subway enhanced the value of the stay.... More

I've stayed in Y hotel twice, the first time was back in 2009 where their room setting and facilities were kind of dated. However, my friends and I love the location, just a street away from the Main Station with High Speed Railway, Taiwan Railway and Metro interchange for both line. The best part is just opposite the famous fermented... More
