Hi, solo male traveller and only speak English. First time in Taiwan and Hualien. Great experience here. Comfortable bed, large hot shower, balcony. Best parts were the hoists. Made me feel really welcome especially after a long day of walking and travelling. Great directions to the local markets. Even helped me book my train tickets for the next day (wrote a note, which i took to the station, booked my ticket easily).
Sadly only stayed 2 nights. Would definitely visit again.
