We stayed at Traveler Hotel for 3 nights in March. It's not a bad choice considering the price. We went to Taitung to bike some of the paths around the city. The hotel had free bikes which was very helpful. The bikes are not in the best shape, but they are adequate for the type of riding.
There isn't a restaurant but the hotel provides breakfast from a place nearby. You tell them what time you want it and then you bring it up to your room. It is basically a breakfast sandwich and coffee or tea.
Our room was basic, but not out of line for the money. The wifi worked well, there was plenty of hot water, and the room had a tea kettle, refrigerator, and tv.
The location is very good--right in the center of things. You can walk anywhere, and it isn't too far to ride to the bike paths. If you're on a budget, Traveler Hotel is not a bad choice.

We stayed in Taidong (Taitung) one night in May 2009, originally planning to go to Green Island, but then electing not to rush there, spend four hours, and then rush back. We arrived at 9AM, and because the guy at the front desk didn't speak much English and we even less Mandarin, we were allowed to check into our room at that time. (In retrospect, we're pretty sure he was trying to tell us we couldn't check in until noon; however, the room was ready, so we may be wrong.)
Room was pretty small but had enough space for a queen bed, desk, small table and chairs, and -- most importantly -- a small bathroom ensuite. Power is centrally controlled by a switch downstairs (most amusing :) ), but once turned on, they did not turn it off at all during our 22 hours there.
Room came with basic amenities, including bottled water, and the air conditioner worked well -- much needed during our stay. There is an elevator, as well as a computer you can use downstairs, but we couldn't figure out how to type in Western characters :)
One thing to note if you book this hotel -- I believe it is both a hotel and hostel, so be sure to check that you are in a hotel room (with bathroom) before completing your booking (if that's what you're after). I printed the detailed confirmation just in case we needed it to confirm what we had paid for. We paid something like US$45-$50 for the night and found it to be a fair price. (There was some confusion when we checked in, however, that resulted in our thinking the Thai agency we booked through may not have passed along the money we paid to the hotel!)
Our plan had been to ride the bus to a sandy beach approx 12km north, but after much talk with a man who we believe was the owner about how to get to the bus station and select the right bus, we determined that the beach was "under construction" and not accessible. Instead, we walked along the rocky shore several blocks from the hotel and wandered around the streets of Taidong. It was nice to have a day off from the sightseeing and hiking.
Hotel is about 10 minutes taxi ride from the train station. Our ride was TWD215 (approx. US$6.50), though our taxi driver took the TWD250 I handed him and refused to give change, even upon my protest. The hotel owner, however, will take you to the train station for a TWD200 fee, paid upon hotel check-in.
There is a Carrefour in walking distance (as well as a "farmer's market"-branded indoor supermarket a little farther) if you need to buy any rations. We highly recommend the sushi bar downstairs inside the Carrefour for the cheapest nigiri, maki, and handrolls you'll ever find! TWD30 per plate (US$0.95), with shrimp sushi just TWD10! And yes, it was fresh, tasty, and served up on a conveyor belt! It was a lot of fun and filled up with lots of locals.
A couple of things to note when traveling south in Taiwan: 1) In Taiwan, it is not considered impolite for people to stare and 2) They don't get tons of Western tourists down south, so if you are Western, be prepared to be stared at. We actually found it very charming and endearing and often smiled as we stared back.

In brief: we stayed at this hotel for one night. Staff was friendly and helpful. Arranged transport to the train station and prepared a simple breakfast before we left. Room was clean, and the fridge worked. In general, a good experience.
This hotel is about three streets away from the night market and traditional market. It sits in the middle of a bunch of clothing stores and great places for quick and tasty bento boxes. Carrefour is about 4 streets away, in the night market area, and is open late.
Once again, great location and a good stay.

Decent hotel. But as a Marriott Ambassador, this hotel offers absolutely no perks. Not even a bottle of water. The front desk guy told us that ended with Covid. Not sure that makes any sense whatsoever. I spent $2100 for five nights. Expensive. For non-Marriott members, probably just fine.

Came here to try and rent a scooter with an international licence. They wouldn't do it (unless you have bike international licence), however the manager (I assumed), was very very helpful and kind, and helped us book a car instead as it appears impossible to get a scooter in Taitung without a Taiwanese licence (it is possible in Hualien). The place looked very modern and clean, so I am sure it is run well.

The hotel looks a bit old, but it is in the centre of the city and is very reasonably priced. Service was friendly. The back of the reception works also as a car park. We parked there our bicycles. We got a small room with basic amenities, but clean, quiet and with free WIFI. Good value for an overnight stay.

the hotel is theoretically at a very convenient location, but it is so darn difficult to locate it. nobody seemed to know where it is, and their signboard isn't prominent too.. in actual fact, it is just 2 blocks away from the bus terminal, the 2 famous food stores selling stinky tofu and meetaimak, and the busy marketing street (fruit street). they serve breakfast which they buy from the breakfast stalls round the corner. so you'll get to make pre-orders the evening before, and collect them the next morning. the guy on duty is the morning offers better traveling advice than the rest as he will tell you all the shortcuts and stuff. generally the rest of the staff are just as courteous and helpful.

A very pleasant surprise. We unexpectedly arrived Taitung with no place lined up. We spoke to a few locales and advised to try. The exterior can fool you but a very clean, comfortable and organized hotel at very reasonable prices. We were a block from one bus station that takes you to the hot springs. We were 4 blocks from another bus station that can take you to the beaches. We were near all the markets and stores. The staff was very kind to us and went out of their way to help us. A safe and nice place to stay.

The hotel is well-located in city centre, close to market, eateries and Ding-Dong bus terminals. The staff were friendly and Ms Carol Huang especially, provided excellent service. We wanted to call our Chishang minsu using the hotel's phone but Ms Huang told us we would not be able to do that with the minsu's phone number and offered her own handphone instead. We are grateful. Such good service attitude deserves to be acknowledged.

I stayed for a night and it was a very comfortable stay. To all the traveler in Taiwan who are looking for a very convenient hotel with a big service, this hotel was a perfect for you. Although this is a small hotel but the service was great. The room was simple, clean and pleasant. And the location was excellent because it is located at the center of the city.
