Greeted by the friendly family members even thought we reach at ard 8-9 pm. They waited for us and lead us to our rooms. Always with a smile and jokes. Even when saw them in the early morning, they recommended us to see the view just behind the building. Great view and really relax for me and my family. 
The breakfast is nice too and fruits are fresh. Will be back again with friends and hope to see them and the baby again. Thanks so much!

Friendly, helpful and near night market

We knew this hotel right on the waterfront had ocean views (the name was a clue?), but we were totally unprepared for the breathtaking views of the mountains to the east side. From our room, we could soak in these two scenes on both sides and just enjoy watching boats approaching the harbor or people enjoying the walk/bikeway running for 15 kilometers right behind the hotel along the waterfront. We absolutely loved our room with its comfy kingsize bed and rain showerhead in the bathroom. The owner and entire staff were so welcoming and helpful--from picking us up and returning us to the train station to recommending a bike rental shop nearby to setting up a bus tour of Taroko Gorge. It's a short walk up the street to the main, lively business district but just far enough away that traffic noise was no problem. We found ourselves utterly relaxing and enjoying our three nights here. Can't recommend this place too highly!

What a find!

This is a good option right on the boardwalk in Hualien.  And yes you can see the ocean right from the room.   The room is large, bright, clean and mostly quiet.  There is a large shower with good hot water, towels, toothpaste and toothbrushes, a refrigerator and more.  The room had two air conditioners, which were both ok, though not great.  It is within easy walking distance of plenty of shops, a small night market, spas, etc...  They will also pick you up and drive you to the train station.  The owner, Edwin, is very attentive, always wanting to know where you are planning to visit and always offering advice (some may find it a bit much).  Breakfast is included - some fruit and sandwiches and dumplings that were clearly bought the day before and microwaved.  That is the one part that could be improved.

Right on the boardwalk

Nice family hotel with beautiful view on the ocean thanks to the wall sized windows. Host are very kind and helpful. The room are comfortable and well equipped with air conditioning, fan, kettle, and bathroom amenities. Recommended also for families.

Great view from huge windows.

The hotel is at the end of a promenade on top of a tunnel. You can see local people doing their exercises in the morning in the ocean breeze ;-) From the B&B it's an easy walk to the center of Hualien with all its restaurants.

The entrepreneurial owner of the B&B speaks fairly good English. He upgraded us to a brand new room: big windows, good bed. There's a comfortable love seat to enjoy the ocean view. The toilet seat is high tech. Good Wi-Fi in the room. Receptionists are friendly and helpful. 
The only disadvantage is that if you stay for several nights all vegetarian breakfast options boil down to the same thing: it's only the bread that differs. Luckily there's plenty of fresh fruit also.

New rooms available

Very spacious and quiet room with huge glass windows, overlooking the ocean. The staff were exceptionally friendly & helpful during our short stay last week. Organised our day trip to the gorge & even drove us to the train station when we left for Yilan.......seems the hotel is expanding so there will be more rooms shortly!!

Recommended indeed

The location of the B&B is excellent, ocean view is very true, walking distance to the downtown part of Hualien also great to ride a bike around. The lady of the B&B is very nice and the breakfast comes with all kinds of fruits and selected local favorites. With that all said.. the room is very spacious but the interior design is terrible..and the bed sheets are not clean. My mom had to complain and ask for a new one and they explained it was done by a service provider..... maybe because we stayed at the cheapest not so European -European style room. 

Most time if the service is nice I would recommend the place but the poor design of the room make it really hard to recommend this place. If you really want to stay, try the Japanese style, might be better.

Great Location, Nice Host but...

Very disappointing. The entire place is full of clutter which immediately makes it feel super untidy and not taken care of. The pictures on Expedia and google do not give any justice, you would expect a cute, well maintained boutique hotel / guest house, instead you find a dirty, very run down building with filthy rooms. The food was terrible (and that has nothing to do do with me being a foreigner as our Taiwanese friend is of the same opinion) and again, all public areas were very uninviting due to clutter everywhere. Staff hardly speaks English too. We paid almost 300 USD for 2 rooms for 1 night which is completely overpriced considering what is offered for this amount of money. Skip this place despite the view and go somewhere else.
