Old Man Captain Hostel

Old Man Captain Hostel is in an unbeatable location—right in front of TRA Tainan Station, making it super convenient for travelers. However, the entrance is a bit tricky to find as it’s inside the FamilyMart by the station, so it took me a while to figure out how to get in. There’s also a Ubike station nearby, which makes exploring the city really easy. The staff were friendly and spoke English well, which made check-in and general communication smooth. As for the dormitory, the beds were pretty basic, and the room itself was quite small. It wasn’t exactly dirty, but it wasn’t particularly clean either. If you’re just looking for a place to crash for a night or two, it does the job, but don’t expect anything fancy. Overall, a good option for budget travelers who prioritize location over comfort.

Best location and very good service attitude. Old railway office building just next door of train station. In side of family mart. Strongly recommend thus place.

The entrance of the hostel is inside a Family mart supermarket. It has comfortable bed, box for the luggage and free breakfast. Every night there is an event to socialize. A bit noisy because of the fans working 24 hours.

Not a bad location but shared room a bit cramped, friendly stall

Toilet is bit dirty and next to the station of Tainan . Easy access to bus terminal.

It’s a very tight space for 4 people and the bed squeaks a lot, I can’t do anything without bothering the roommates. Same type where you have to do your own beddings and take it out after you’re checking out. The dorm door closes quickly on its own and it’s hard to prompt both the fence and door open at the same time! the washing and drying machine is amazing though! out of everything :)
