香蕉同居中-Junior Banana Co-Living Junior

According to the webpage, Banana Co-living (香蕉同居中) is a Taipei-founded co-living brand that evolved from Banana Hostel. Established in 2016, the operator cites prior hostel industry recognition (Hostelworld 2015: Taiwan #1, Asia #3) and positions itself as one of Taiwan’s largest co-living providers by market share. The brand frames its mission around creating warm, inclusive community connections within busy urban environments. Property network and locations: the portfolio comprises ten co-living apartments across prime Taipei neighborhoods plus one property in Tainan (branded “Enlighten Residence” / 光合億舍). Taipei locations listed include Dongmen (東門), Zhongshan (中山), Ximen (西門), East District (東區), No.5 (五號), Zhongshan Junior (中山國中), Jilin/Grin (吉林/Grin), Amber (安泊), SongJiang (松江) and Hue (咻/Hue). Properties are promoted as being close to MRT stations and local amenities to support convenient commutes and daily life. Included services and amenities: the site states that room fees are billed as an all-in-one package covering rent, utilities (water/electricity), and internet. Units are described as fully furnished and move-in ready. Professional cleaning and repair services (including leak/waterproofing response) are provided, and public areas are monitored with surveillance for security. Rooms use electronic locks; public spaces include fire extinguishers and smoke detectors. The brand also emphasizes an English-friendly environment to accommodate multicultural residents. Community and programming: Banana Co-living highlights regular roommate and community activities—examples cited include markets, outdoor events, parties and small gifts—intended to foster social connections. Most bedrooms are gender-segregated while common areas are shared; visitors are permitted but asked to leave by 23:00 to respect housemates’ rest.
