A good and friendly hostel especially for family with kids. The room is large with toys, slides provided. Electrical car and bikes are available for kids to play. Easy to find and parking is provided. 

A friendly hostel

We booked here because it was very "budget-friendly" (not expensive in our opinion because based on the room and style of the hotel, it would have been much, much more expensive where I'm from) for what it was offering. Our mistake was not realizing that this hotel is kiiind of in the middle of nowhere in Dongshan township which is fine if you just want a weekend getaway but we were visiting from the states and did not have a car, so we didn't know how we were going to get dinner. The hotel is in a rural area and definitely is not a hostel as we don't have to share rooms with anyone else. Each room has a color theme and a cute stuffed animal sitting somewhere off in the corner, and in the lobby area which felt more like a very large and modern living/entertainment room with an eat-in kitchen, there are many quirky decorations that really makes the place very endearing. 

As people who live in the city, the rural view is phenomenal. It's nothing THAT special but I'd never seen rice fields before and they were all we saw. We could also see stars at night and were able to see Orion's Belt. 

As far as the rooms, the pictures do a great job of depicting what your room will look like, and even lets you choose which room you want. The bed seemed to be slightly larger than a king, the bathroom area was also very spacious (not its own room) and the tub is great for a bath. (No bubble bath though) 

The best part of the hostel was probably the hosts. As soon as we arrived, we were very grumpy because it began to pour immediately after we got off the bus from Taipei City Hall to Yilan Station, and the cab ride took about 20 minutes. When we got there, they asked us to take our shoes off and put on slippers, and immediately served us fruits and cookies and cake. When one woman took us upstairs, she showed us where we could put our shoes (we were asked to wear slippers everywhere) and turned on the air for us/tv, explained what time breakfast was. We told her we didn't have a  car so didn't know what we would do for dinner, and she said if she had driven her car that day (she took her motorcycle) she would have been willing to take us to the city area to get dinner. (We actually later found street food only a couple of blocks away by Meihua Lake.) 

The next morning, they were very accommodating in helping us find a hotel in Jiaoxi even though they didn't need to as I had brought my laptop with me. They even called a cab for us and told us how much it would be (gypsy cab) and how long it would take.
