Dan Hostel
Dan Hostel is located 2 minutes away from Exit 1 of Ximending Subway Station. The transportation is convenient. We are a single-family building. The interior is designed in industrial style. The whole building has bunk beds. There are many buses here. You can reach Jiufen with one bus. 1- 2 stops to Taipei Main Station.
The manager does not speak English, but is happy to share Chinese learning. Most of the counter staff can speak English and can talk to you. We welcome little helpers. We like to make friends and share the big and small things in life.

I really enjoyed working at this hostel, the tasks are simple and usually don't take too long, +/- 1h30 and then you have the whole afternoon to enjoy Taipei, and 2 days off in a row to go for a trip somewhere else, which is really convenient. And everybody is really nice. Thank you for this opportunity

This was my first worldpackers experience and it was exactly how I expected! The team is very friendly and the work is light. The hostel environment is chill and the location is AMAZING! Literally 2min walk away from the metro station and right across from a 7-11, it was very convenient. The owner, May, sometimes would cook lunch for the volunteers which was always very kind and delicious. I met a lot of other amazing cool people while I was there too. Special shoutout to my goat Will for being so kind, caring, and welcoming.

I had a very peaceful experience here and even extended my stay. Atmosphere is respectful and relaxed. The hostel is perfect for focused work and mature travelers, not for parties or social activities, but you can still connect with people. The facilities are clean and beds are comfortable! You’re in a prime location near many shops, restaurants, transportation and a 7/11 right across. Tasks are light and hours were shorter than expected. Quite often, May would bring a generous, delicious spread of food for us. Special thanks to Will for some great conversations and including us in outings :)
