Impressive
Best location when arriving in Hualien, right by the train station and several car rental spots. Rooms are inexpensive, clean and the staff is very friendly. Would 100% go back

10/10 Exceptional

Overall, a wonderful stay. My private room was quiet with light housekeeping service, front desk staff very helpful, pre-trip responses to my messages on Expedia were answered quickly, nice property. Directly across from train and 1/2 block to bus station. Special thanks to Jodie for her great restaurant recommendations, Bure (& Jodie & other gal on evening shift) for helping me plan the rest of my vacation, to Bosh and Winson for a smooth check-in. Overall, I would give this property 4.2/5. I found it was a bit overpriced for a room in a hostel. Marks deducted as the room is quite small, bed configuration odd as the bed blocks the small window, a table to put my suitcase on top of would be nice, better lighting needed, more signage in English, could use an extra elevator (not an easy fix), and last...:thank you for the complimentary breakfast, but it would be nice if you could include some items for the North American or European clientele, such as hardboiled eggs, granola or muesli, milk with coffee, juice, etc. I feel this hotel caters more towards national tourists, and not international.

This was a surprise to me. While marketed as a hostel, they provided impeccable service. The staff were helpful and friendly; and the location is superb. It is directly opposite the Hualien Train Station (you can see the green building from the station, and vice-versa). Saves you the trouble of finding a taxi or alternative transport (which is helpful as it is difficult to get an Uber ride in Hualien). The overall bus station is also beside the train station (allowing for easy transfers to the inner parts of the city like the night market and Taroko Gorge). Great experience, will recommend. Booked a private room and it is equivalent to any self respecting hotel.

雨中花蓮之旅
顯眼的綠色大樓就座落在花蓮火車站對面，區位相當方便，內部環境整潔，裝飾和壁畫營造出溫馨的青旅氣氛。惟五樓公區浴廁空間稍嫌促狹，房內浴室乾爽但臥室稍悶不透氣，故濕毛巾衣服不容易乾，但不致影響整體住宿體驗。這次是臨時起意去花蓮，事先毫無安排，幸有工作人員推薦之在地好去處，度過了悠哉的兩天兩夜。

we were on our bike trip, and although the hotel offer us to park the bike in their basement, the lift is too tiny to fit in our bike (!). Breakfast is too simply and is not much better than nothing. Disappointed.
