We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff was very welcoming and, even though there was a bit of a language barrier, they always did their best to accommodate our needs. The property itself was well kept and spotless — our room was tidy, fresh, and exceptionally clean. We especially loved having a balcony overlooking the mountains, which made the stay feel extra special. The included breakfast was plentiful and delicious, and the staff was kind and helpful throughout our visit. One thing to note is that the hotel is about a 45–60 minute walk from the train station. If you’re traveling with luggage, it’s definitely best to take a taxi, which costs around 200 NTD. Overall, we had a great experience and would happily recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable stay!

房間設計令人舒適,自助早餐尤令人滿意

除了房間比預期的小一些、沒有小冰箱,其餘都很滿意 房間內會有置物架,讓輕旅行的人很方便 浴室乾濕分離,空間也足夠,沐浴乳與洗髮精都有 早餐很滿意,算是三星住宿的頂端了,約10樣菜餚可搭配稀飯,三種抹醬可配吐司

整體而言算是很有質感的民宿

整體而言算是很有質感的民宿,含吃到飽早餐(沒什麼肉但好吃,餐具還不錯),可免費停車但一旁大概只有10幾個車位,開出去逛逛回來就沒位子,還好民宿不在鬧區所以路邊可找到車位。商務房不大沒桌椅,但一樓交誼廳有不少可坐的地方,房間外有不錯的小陽台,但得留意小黑蚊。

A cheap overnight stay in Hualian

We got a good deal on the long weekend as the bnb was newly opened. The staff were super friendly and helpful. However, the bed was pretty small (as my husband is 185cm tall) and the curtains didn’t block the light properly. The breakfast buffet was mediocre with limited selections but worth the money we paid. Overall, I would recommend this place to young backpackers or people who just need an cheap overnight stay in Hualien city (and those who enjoy art, such as woodcraft, gallery and hipster-ish atmosphere)
