"Nice room upgrade"

"The hotel room was of a good size and the location was great, really close to everything in the center of downtown Hualien. Apart from the room being a bit run down, everything in the room worked well for a few nights' stay. We found the daily cleaning of the room quite inconsistent, and had to inform the hotel reception a few times that used cups were not replaced with fresh ones daily, despite several reminders. The breakfast spread was acceptable but was definitely more on the basic scale. No netflix available in the hotel as well. "

"非常好的體驗，雖然很多地方都在整修，但飯店很貼心的延長下午茶時間到晚上以作為補償。下午茶的燒仙草很棒，旁邊提供添加的各種豆料也很新鮮。早餐也很棒，有很多當地的特殊小吃。"

"Very new property. High scale, friendly staffs, good breakfast buffett."

"It is not a 5 star hotel but it does have everything a traveler need. A comfortable bed, clean room, good strong hot water and easy access to food! The bathroom doesn’t have a tub but everything in the bathroom works and clean. Room is a little tight after we put our luggages in the room. Furnishing is not the most luxurious but it is simple and practical. In the lobby they provide free coffee and tea as well as various type of cookies. They also have bicycle you can borrow. If you go out of the hotel and turn right you will hit the Hualien night market. If you turn right again you will see a big supermarket. If you continue pass the supermarket you will hit the day market. What a convenience! If you turn left after leaving the hotel you will hit some eateries along the street. Overall there wasn’t much to do in Hualien. ThevTaroko national park is closed due to the earthquake and typhoon last year. Took the kids to the Farglory Ocean Park it was a bit of a disappointment. All the water ride are closed including the water around the castle moat. The aquarium was good. The kids loved it. Uber doesn’t work in Hualien because there are no driver. You can use Find Taxi to get ride but a lot of time you can not even find any rides. So be careful if you are out of the city! Overall 2-3 max is enough for Hualien. One more thing, 2B ATV is a good place to experience ATV. They are a nice bunch of people. Take the train from Hualien to Xincheng train station. Then get a taxi."

"They provide free laundry facility and free bikes. It’s a great service to travelers "

"Our "standard double room" was pretty tiny. Some of the front desk staff seemed cold and unfriendly. I guess those are minor points. Excellent breakfast. The price was good so I shouldn't complain."

"Like it very much. There is no public transportation to use to get to the hotel from the Hualien train station. "

"Good 24 hours snack area. Convenient."
