If you need just a place to stay your night, Hostels are already good since you are out during the the day. I booked through Agoda because I find it cheaper there than other travel apps. You can also use Agoda PointMax. There is a service fee since I used GetGo Visa Card to pay for the remaining 2 Nights.

WHAT TO BRING?
- Adapter

Here's the type of socket at the TaiJin Hostel: (You can charge via usb)
- Medicine - if you have sensitive stomach like mine, and gets to eat different food for the next three hours, I probably get bloated.
- Tissue Paper - they run out of tissue paper
- Tumbler - you need to be hydrated all throughout your journey
- Umbrella - we don't know the weather so it's better to be ready
- Comfy shoes & outfit
