Owl Hostel 貓頭鷹旅店

Best capsule hotel we have ever stayed in. King room meant you could stand up and a full sized door and bed. It felt very safe as after a certain time at night you need the key to get into the hotel and all the time, you need a key to get into the room and then the key to get into your capsule. The rooftop was great and there was very cheap washing machines and dryers as well as ample space to dry your clothes . Also free tea and coffee as well as a fully functional kitchen including a communal fridge.

Sheets could have been a little bit cleaner. There could have been more seating on the rooftop. There is only two toilets and five showers per level and we feel it would be best to have one more toilet and one less shower.

- Lage war top - Dachterasse - Laundry - Kaffeemaschine

- in Aufenthaltsräume nur normale Stühle, keine zum relaxen - Badezimmer sehr unbequem (man&frau zusammen und keine kleine Vorzimmer wo man sich umkleiden kann) - nicht wirklich social - Klima sehr kalt eingestellt

Super satisfactory all around. The shared facilities such as the bathrooms and dining/kitchen areas were spacious, clean and well equipped. The actual sleeping capsules are surprisingly large and comfy, as well as super secure (they come with electronic locks). The hostel also provides access to a locker which, if I recall correctly, was free of charge. I had no issue with any kind of noise, though I don't know if that's because the capsules are well-insulated or if everyone who stayed with me was just really silent. The staff is super accomodating (late check-ins are absolutely possible btw) and speaks really good english. Finally, in terms of tourism and comfort of stay, the location is really ideal (as in : meters away from convenience stores, a bus stop, Ita Thao's touristy food street, the pier, and of course the lake itself).

While I obviously do not hold that against it, be aware that this hostel shares a downside with every accomodation in Ita Thao, which is that it's difficult to access at night (aka after 7pm) due to public transportation being very minimal, and taxi services even more sparse. While I mentioned earlier that a late check-in is possible, I do not recommend it if you're not driving to the lake yourself. It's not impossible or anything, but it is inconvenient.
