1. Space Inn Hengyang Branch

Space Inn is ranked no. 1 in our list because its design is really unique. True to its name, Space Inn looks pretty much like a spaceship with modern furniture. Space Inn’s staff also wear astronaut uniforms.

The bedrooms are divided into two separate zones for male and female. Each room has about 5-6 bunk beds. The bed is 2.2 meters wide so it is really comfortable when sleeping. Each guest will be provided with a nightlight, locker with private magnetic lock, and when going in and out of the room, you have to use a magnetic card to open the door for your safety. Except for the private bed, all other amenities are shared with other guests such as bathroom (equipped with shampoo, shower gel and a large mirror), reading room (equipped with TV, DVD player and a few magazines), kitchen (equipped with coffee machine, baking oven, water bottle, tea and coffee etc.) and laundry room (you need to use coins for laundry). The impression of Space Inn is clean and modern. Although it is a dorm room, you will still feel super comfortable.

Space Inn is located really close to Ximen night market (Ximending), opposite is the famous TenRen Tea House and not so far from Taipei Main Station.
