Photos are deceiving

Strange & musty smell in hotel. Gave us room on 7 flr but it smelt of smoke/cigarettes when we asked reception, were told ‘non-smoking, but we can’t stop guests if they smoked’. They changed room eventually but Attitude was nonchalant and unsympathetic. service was slow, was told they are shorthanded. Poor quality toothbrush - bristles were dropping out. Breakfast was bad - congee was almost cold and whole setup doesn’t look appetizing at all. Wanted to cancel my second night but Hotels feedback they cannot find the manager. Eventually NO follow up from Hotels. And don’t believe in the photos, the hotel was run down and poorly maintained, nothing like the photos at all.

Upon arrival we realized there is no parking on site for unloading, so we had to unload everything, including a bicycle, on the side of a busy street. This is not off to a good start. Still frustrated from unloading we checked in. Front desk informed us we are upgraded from a deluxe double room to a deluxe quadruple room due to heavy booking. We sometimes choose a bigger room for its space anyway so we didn't give it too much thoughts. However, when we entered the room on the top floor.... The view..... You could see all the way down the street that's leading to the beach, then the sea. It's just beautiful. At that moment, all the unpleasantness of unloading was behind us. Room is spacious and quiet with a work station and a sofa/coffee table set. Please note, the double beds are combined by two twin bed mattresses so there is a seam right in the middle in our room. However, that double bed is meant for two people, so... Bathroom is spacious with a big window right by the tub for star gazing. Breakfast is decent but certain foods can be hotter like eggs, fries.. This seems to be the common theme here in Taiwan, western hot food is never hot, not even warm. It could be just how it's done here. Hotel is very convenient to the beach and night market.

Rooms are clean and comfy. The double room is interesting and spacious but the quadruple room is smaller than expected (from web photo) so kinda disappointed. Apparently there are 2 types of quadruple room and i was somehow unlucky to get the smaller one. Breakfast is reasonable.

Could be better

Easily one of the worse hotel room I stayed in this 2019. We booked 2 rooms and other room was pretty okay. Mine was really dirty. Cups and kettle too had stains. Night lamp is really bright. Tried contacting reception in the night to fix that but person in-charge wasn't able to communicate in English. Morning staff is pretty okay to talk in English and is pretty helpful. Location is nice. 5 minutes of walk to the beach.

Not so Shiny these days

Huge room with a nice view but the caulk in the bathroom was just straight up nasty. Black mold under the majority of it. Super cringeworthy. Cutting out and recaulking the bathroom fixtures would really go a long way. Nice that there were two extra pillows in the room but pillow cases would have been helpful.

Spacious clean room

We had the ocean view room which had an angled large picture window. Room was spacious, bright and clean, with large modern bathroom with separate glass-enclosed shower and heated toilet. Breakfast buffet was fantastic, with so many hot and cold choices. Location was good, within walking distance of night market and local shops. Needed a taxi to get to train station.

Highly recommended if visiting Hualien.

Room is exactly as shown. Really spacious room with HUMONGOUS bed. We experienced a 4 6 magnitude earthquake and received a call from reception within 2mins checking on us if we were ok. We had initially planned to stay only 1 night but decided to extend another night as we loved the room so much. Nearby night market has awesome salt baked fish (Die-die-must-try! Not to be missed.)

It was a raining day. Hotel was not packed, hardly any customer. They do not allow early check in. No parking on site. Parking located at an off- site location in an alley. Pillow cases and bed are all dirty. Can see hair and dust all over. Rest room smells, had a bad scent. Lobby light was turn off. It was pitch dark in the morning. Do not recommend this hotel at all.

Beyond our expectation. The Family Room was huge with nice view of the Pacific Ocean. Location was excellent as it is near the Dongdamen Night Market (10 mins walk) and the Golden Triangle shopping district (15 mins walk). Front desk was nice and the lady patiently introduced to us all the good food places. Breakfast was average though.
