The owner was super kind and helped me a lot with some struggling stuff. The place's location is perfect as it's surrounded by convenience stores and it's only 5 minutes away from the train station. It's true that it was not full so maybe not the best option for solo travellers but it's because not many tourists go to Hualien and, as one of them, the hostel was very comfortable and clean. I had a very great stay, thank you!

Voor mij was het een perfect verblijft. Ik wist nog niet goed wat ik wilde doen in Hualien. Maar de eigenaar was heel toegankelijk en heeft me heel goed geholpen met het plannen van mijn reis. Hij is een hele lieve man. Uiteindelijk verlengde ik mijn verblijf met een extra nacht.

Great hostel and friendly host... I was about to go on a very expensive tour, but he advised me to get an e-bike rental instead. Not the safest thing I've ever done, but certainly much cheaper and more fun than the alternative

Hostel is super close to the train station but slightly further from the beach/night market so I would recommend renting a bike to get around. This was one of the cleanest hostels I’ve stayed at and the owner was so so nice! I highly recommend this place.

Vous ne trouverez pas meilleur hostel dans Taïwan voire en Asie. Le personnel est super accueillant, les chambres sont très propres, de même pour les parties communes. Le gérant saura vous recommander les bonnes adresses de la région ! J’ai vraiment été accueillie de manière chaleureuse comme à la maison ! Merci pour tout, Bonne continuation !

The hostel is located near the train station and the bus station but it's a bit far from the night market. The owner, is super friendly and helpful. The bed is comfortable and clean, same for the shower and the toilet. Recommend if you want to explore Taroko National park (closed at the moment 11/13/2024) and the nearby.
