The room was standard (American hotel) sized, well kept, and clean, but the room decor was a bit odd. The bed was comfortable enough. The shower has nice water pressure for our 7th floor room. There were no personal safe. Functional, old-style (not flat panel) TV with choices of cable TV programs. 2 free bottled water was included. All the daily toiletry items were provided (toothbrush/paste, shaving kit, etc). The instruction sheet in our room said that there was wireless internet access, but my Ipad couldn't locate any network. However, there were plenty of desktop computers in the business center on the 1st floor with free internet access. We also took advantage of the free DIY laundry, but the dryer speed was painfully slow.
The service overall was very good, and the hotel staff were very accommodating. I speak Chinese so communication was not an issue. The biggest negative was perhaps its location, a bit away from the city center. However, Taitung isn't a big city, and the "downtown" can be reached within a healthy (20 min) walking distance. This may not be a huge issue since most visitors to Taitung did not come for its "downtown". Both the train station and airport are also quite a distance away from the city center, so there is no great advantage to stay within downtown, especially you are here to see Taitung's main attractions (hot springs, costal scenics, nature)
Transportation wasn't an issue for us since we had relatives taking us around. But i know the hotel can easily arrange taxi or other form of transpiration for its guests. While Taitung is in a remote part of Taiwan, it is a popular tourist destination for its well-known hot-springs, nature, and costal scenes, so there are definitely plenty of taxi and other transportation options. I was told that this hotel is quite popular with Mainland Chinese tour group, but the hotel wasn't too busy during our stay.
There were plenty of local restaurants nearby, including a fancy looking (by Taitung standard) steak house 5 minute away. A Seven-Eleven like (Family Mart?) convenient store is located next door.
The included daily breakfast was surprisingly good with variety of food item (70% Chinese/Taiwanese and 30% Western-style stuff), including a very good fruit/salad bar (Taitung is famous for its tropical/subtropical fruits). My kid loved the free ice cream she could get anytime at two self-service stations. There is also a free midnight snack (Taiwanese noodle), but we didn't try it.
The hotel is located in Taitung's central part, a convenience store and a nice restaurant/cafe just outside. All the basic information can be gained in English in print, the staff can be communicated with on the basic level but there were never any misunderstandings at the hotel.
Rooms are alright, the great ocean climate makes A/C redundant, though it works as well. Everything was provided for according to expectations, and the price was just fine.
At first, the location was not that impressive. I rented hotel's bike (free) and rode about the city. It was easy to get around. Roads are wide and safe unlike Taipei.
Taitung reminds me of Hawaii, weather yes, but no good beach. Follow the mountains if heading north or west, follow the sea if heading south or east.
Taitung is small, clean and beautiful. The hotel emphasizes a lot of food, drink, popcorn and ice cream available anytime.
We arrived quite late, nearly 8:30pm. After more than 6 hours on the train, we were quite hungry. The lady told us night snack will be served on the 2nd floor cafe between 9-11pm. We never heard of any other hotel serving free night snacks and were very curious. It was a decent buffet spread with hot and cold food, fresh fruit, ice cream and cakes..... Just what we needed. Next to the front desk in the lobby is a free drink and snack bar where hotel guests can enjoy coffee, tea, juice, popcorn, and ice cream any time of the day. Again, this is something you don't often see in other hotels.
All staff were courteous. The location was perfect and quiet. I can't imagine any other hotel in Taitung beating that value. It is a great base for anyone wanting to explore Taitung.
Overall speaking, this is a high C/P value hotel.
