Very good beds and showers, excellent location.

Stayed in March 2024

Be careful if you want to explore the city; sights like the night market are relatively far away. I'd recommend renting a scooter for the duration of your stay.

Great Hostel right next to the trainstation in Hualien. The personell was really nice and the check-in was super easy.

Minor details, more feedback than what I didn’t like: couple of towel hooks near bathroom, hand soap in upstairs toilet.

Very close to bus and train station Organised and clean Local guide maps for hiking Responsive staff

Perfect position next to the train station, ideal if you have an early start. Nice host at the reception, new building and facilities

The number on the bunker bed is a bit hard to find and you might accidentally occupy someone's empty bed thinking it's yours. But that's only a minor thing.

Conveniently located and comfortable, affordable accomodation for early risers who whishes to take an early train next day. Rooms and toilets are spotlessly clean.

This was a great hostel with good facilities!

Slightly annoying having to go down a full flight of stairs to use the toilet and showers, especially if it's the middle of the night. Close to the station but a bit futher from the town centre, but can easily get on a bus from the station over the road.

Really close to the train station and convenience stores, easy to find, the owner was really kind and helpful with recommendations and I really appreciated the tea/coffee/snacks provided. Rooms were comfy and loved that each bed in our twin room had it's own TV, though we didn't really need to use it. It was nice to have some space to sit downstairs.

The size of the room was quite small.

It is quite near the Hualien station. There's a coffee shop in front of it. Even the room that I stayed in was small, but the bed was spacious. There's a locked locker outside and inside of the room (near the bed). And what I liked the most was, there's a bidet in both toilets, upstairs and downstairs. As an Asian, I really appreciate it. One more thing, the plug socket near the bed is a universal plug. So, you don't need a travel adapter to use it. If you are sensitive to dust, don't be worried because the place is clean, including the bathroom and toilet.

Nothing really.

Everything! The hostel is just like many of the reviews describe: really well and cleverly designed. It’s very spacious, clean and quiet. Really great value for the price. The hostel owner is also really kind and has great tips for exploring Hualien and Taroko. Would definitely recommend staying here!

The only thing I could complain about is that the AC was very cool one night. But second night was perfect temperature.

Great location, amazing owner, very helpful and spoke good English. Would come again :)

The room was really small, it was hard to enter and exit the room because there was not enough space.

Great location, very clean and modern place with big lockers. Good for a 2 or 3 night stay!

Clean, near by the train and bus station. Many showers and toilets on different floors available.

I stayed in the 4 bed mixed dorm and it's really tiny. There was basically just enough space to open the door. But it wasn't a huge problem since I was just there for two nights.

The hostel is located in a great spot, it's just a 6 min walk from the train/bus stn and is next to a grocery store for any other items you might need. Brad, the hostel owner was super nice and helpful. I went to the recommended food spots and was not disappointed. The bathroom area is also very clean. The lounge area to eat/drink/hang out is small but clean and tidy. Really appreciated the free amenities provided (instant coffee, some small snacks, etc)

Stayed in February 2024

Bedroom was a bit small for four people. Only stairs in the accommodation. You have to take a bus to the main shopping/eating area.

The owner was friendly and provided instructions on how to get to hostel prior to arrival. Our quadruple room was on the top floor and as there was only stairs, the owner was kind enough to carry our luggages up. The bedroom was clean, modern and comfy, with all bathroom amenities provided. All the basic amenities were provided in the shared kitchen on the ground floor. Coffee/tea/biscuits were provided. There's a shared balcony where you can hang your laundry. Accommodation is walking distance from Hualien station.

The bed was extremely hard.

Brad is a very friendly and helpful host, the hostel is really close to the train and bus station, it's very clean, there are even some hygienic supplies as well as cookies/crackers and tea/coffee. Thanks a lot!

Towel rental would have been useful.

Located just a short walk from Hualien train and bus station. Very clean hostel with a helpful host.

Stayed in January 2024

I thought I would be provided with an actual towel! I was given a disposable one. Which was OK I guess. Also, could Brad be open to having an microwaveoven installed? Would be good to microwave food! Thank you!

Bed sheet had a bit of stain on it at the far end...no big issue. 1 washroom for 8 beds, but there are others in the building, so not end of the world! Just remember to bring your own towel!

Quiet, chill and very friendly! Awesome / sort of robotnik vibes! Stayed here twice now and would book again. Easy location few steps away from the train / bus stations.

- all fine.

Close to the main train station. Clean hostel, with hot showers, big lockers. The female dorm is compact but this hostel met all my needs for a 2 night stop to see Taroko Gorge. Brad (owner) also helpful.

Stayed in December 2023

Great location as it is a close walk to the train station and bus station. The host is very fast to respond and very accommodating.

The matress is relatively thin. I still slept well on it, but a bigger one would be more comfortable.

Everything is great in this hostel. The owner is very friendly and helpful, he can give you good recommendations. The beds have maximum privacy with good curtains and walls and each have a plug, light and quite big locker. There was a bathroom inside my room but also more of them outside. It was clean. The location is excellent for going by train or bus to Taroko, also a supermarket is next door. There is free water, tea, instant coffee, and many maps available. I would come again.

The host Brad was super friendly and welcoming, checking in and out was easy and fast. The facilities were in good state and very clean and I could store my luggage after check out. The location is very convenient, about 6 min walking distance to Hualien train station.

Only two, no, three things that I was missing... Towels (no possibility to rent) and a kitchen. And the double bunked bed room is pretty small.

Very well organised hostel with a helpful owner who speaks English good enough. We spent one night in the dorm and two nights in the double bunked bed room. The Dorm was spacious and comfy with lockers (not big though). Air con and fresh air circulation worked. Comfy bed with a plug. Everything was clean, also the bathrooms. Drinking water is available. The common room at the reception is not very cozy for hanging out for a while but does the job for talking to people. WiFi worked perfectly.

Stayed in November 2023

This was an excellent hostel: the space was modern, super clean, and well thought out. The dorm beds were comfortable, and had an electronic locker (and even a TV and curtain). It was a convenient 6 min walk from the train station. My train arrived after hours, and Brad had a convenient after hours check-in process. Sad that I only had one night here, and will definitely be back next time I'm in Hualien. Thanks Brad for a lovely stay and for your hospitality!
