Outstanding location, two blocks from Dongdamen Night Market, and across the street from the beach. Friendly staff, surprisingly good breakfast, cold A/C, decent WiFi, and very comfortable bed. Glad I stayed here and not in the "downtown" area closer to the train station.

There were ants in the kitchen which I feel could be improved.

The uncle is especially friendly towards which made you feel at home. He will do his best to cater to our needs. He helped us with the luggage to top level when there was no lift. I believe He will go extra miles to all who stay at his place.

Partial sea view.

Room was spacious. Not direct sea facing, partial view. Love the sea wave sound at night. Comfy stay! Near to night market.. walking distance to restaurants and few shops.

If you are those who take western breakfast, not much selection except toast bread with various spread. However, their dishes to pair with taiwan plain porridge is nice.

Next to the coast. They even have 2 bicycles to lend us to cycle along the coast using their bicycle track.

Nothing.

Location is excellent, just by the seaside and boardwalk. Staff very friendly. Rooms are fairly spacious esp the deluxe double rooms. Breakfast is good and they change menu slightly each day. Great value for $ and just a stone's throw fm the Nite Mkt. b, Ms Ho who looks after us at breakfast did an excellent job while in the afternoon/evening, an elderly gentleman who is probably the GM or Owner is very kind and helpful.

There's not much we didn't like, though.

It is very near to the seaside and the night market in Hualien City. Although the room we stayed in has got a partial view of sea, it is still a great place to stay. Not forgetting that, they do serve good sumptuous breakfast.

we booked a room with sea view unfortunately three tall buildings blocked out half the view

The hotel locks the front door at night until 6am so we couldn't get out in the morning to catch our early train. We tried to get a hold of staff to escape but nobody answered. We literally had to climb out a window to escape the hotel in the morning.

The staff was super friendly! The night Market was down the street and the ocean was across. Our room had a view of the beach which was nice!

Unfortunately the cleanliness left something to be desired. It had visibly not been dusted for a long time, and hairs do not belong in the fridge. In the bathroom, apart from the edge of the washbasin, there is no storage space for toiletries, razor etc. and only one towel rail. But the vanity unit was too dirty to be used. The liquid soap at the washbasin was clearly heavily diluted with water, which left a strange impression. The unusually soft mattress didn't bother me, but it's not for people with back problems. Already at 8 am, at the breakfast buffet, with the exception of the rice, all the supposedly warm dishes were not just lukewarm, but downright cold, some of them as if they had been left from the day before. There is no fresh fruit and no possibility to make a hot tea. At least there are no little packages for butter, jam etc., which means less plastic waste.

The hotel owner is very friendly and helpful. The hotel has two buildings about 500 metres apart. Probably because of the low occupancy in the low season, I didn't get the room I booked in the subsidiary building but a larger one in the main building, where also the reception is located. Many thanks for that! In this respect, the room was more than big enough for one person. However, four people might have problems fitting in their luggage. This also applies to the dresser drawer and wardrobe, which are sufficient for one person for a short stay. A full-size fridge provides enough storage space for your own food, but it hums quite loudly. It didn't bother me, but it might bother noise-sensitive people. The sea view across a car park is very nice, although there is still a row of houses in between. Across this car park you can get to the promenade in a minute, which is car-free thanks to a tunnel underneath for heavy traffic and therefore very quiet. There is a water dispenser in the corridor on each floor, which means you can save plastic waste instead of using the water bottles provided. However, according to the notice, the hot water from the water dispenser is only 65 degrees. For boiling water, e.g. for tea, you should come to reception, as there is only a thermos flask in the room, but no kettle.

When you get into the hotel you immediatly notice the smell of mold. Especially inside the elevator. The room was in a very bad state. Interior was old and there was quite a bit of mold around the windows and on the drapes which were also very dusty. There's tiny insects (NOT bed bugs) crawling everywhere (bed, nightstand) so you can't leave out any food or dirty dishes. Faucet in the bathroom was lose and the cabinet underneath the sink very dirty. We only stayed one night instead of 4

Room was very big and had a huge window from which you could see the ocean. The owner of the hotel is very nice and refunded us for our whole stay, after we left
