The Experience

We are a brand new hostel located in Beimen area (Taipei Main Station Area). We would love to accept people around the world to make our hostel a interesting place. The working detail will be doing some simple housekeeping and help our staff with the check-in process. We are also very open-minded and it would be fun to have travelers joining our team. It's also a great chance for you to blend in the local life and to interact with others.

I had a really nice stay at May Rooms. Everyone was really friendly and you can finish much faster than it was said if you work with a bit more effort.

Oh it was such a great time staying volunteering at the hostel. It has a great location for exploring the city. The tasks are straightforward and exactly what they say. The supervisors are relaxed and caring as they guide you through the responsibilities. I had a bunch of fun with the other volunteers and the hosts. They were always down for a conversation, tips for exploring the city or even hanging out after. Loved it!!!

I enjoyed working in this hostel. Duties include making the beds and cleaning the common area and it usually takes few hours to finish. The staff members are friendly and also helped us to finish the tasks faster. Tim, Jims, and Stone are pretty chill to work with. They treated me well during my stay. I definitely would come back here if time permits. Overall, it was a great experience. This is a perfect place to volunteer at due to its close proximity to tourist attractions. Xie xie May Rooms! :-)

Had an awesome time at the hostel. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is very good because it is right next to the hostel. The beds you sleep on are pretty comfortable. Stone is a very cool person and he runs the hostel well. And the work you do for the hostel isn't too hard. Overall my experience was excellent!

Dear Marco, thank you for your help during this period. Because we were very busy, we came back late. We all miss your sunshine and kindness. We hope to see you again in MayRooms next time.

My experience with the hostel was great. The people were very nice and helpful. There was a bit of a language barrier but nothing Google translate couldn't solve! The tasks were manageable. The schedule was considerate. The location was central. I was able to explore the area and feel like a local. It was safe and clean. I'd definitely come back if I had the chance to do so! Thank you to Tim, Nancy, Carol and Stone. ✨
