The check-in was quite a nightmare, the receptionist did not speak a word in English and tried to explain access to the property and the room via chosen pincodes (a complicated system at least when explained in Chinese only!). We then somehow worked it out with her via Google Translate but for future guests it would be very helpful if the management would prepare some very basic written information in English and not just send infos in emails that you can only read once you are already in the room when you have wifi. Another negative is that there was no shower curtain and everything got very wet. The room itself was fine and very clean and with much more than just hostel character and service - rooms were made up with fresh linen, towels, drinking water and toiletries daily. We also loved the coffee machine downstairs, there are also basic cooking facilities there but we did not use them. The bed was comfy but not very strong, the slatted frame broke when one of us sat at the edge of the bed. The bed was then not useable anymore but the problem was sorted out very quickly and we were given another room. The man at the reception was very apologetic and he actually spoke a bit of English. The hostel is not far to walk from the train station (about 5 min) but it's quite a long way to the town center and the seafront, but the hostel provides free bikes which we found great. We can recommend this hostel for a base to go to lovely Taroko Gorge - we would stay there again.
