花莲县花莲乐活亚绿亚民宿
Aria2 Home @ Hualien, Taiwan
Website to book: Agoda and many other hotel booking websites.
Cost: around SGD$100 per night for a room for three (with breakfast)
Location: No.12, Aly. 5, Ln. 21, Guoxing 6th St., Hualien City, Hualien, Taiwan, 97054
Size of accommodation: Bigger than a standard hotel room size. For 3, with a balcony
Accommodates: 3
Location: 3.5/5. It's at a private housing area. Very near Hualien TRA station, but a bit of distance from Dongdaemun district and qixingtan (sea area). Thus, will need to call cab and the driver might not know this place. You have to read out the address to them. The minsu has a working relationship with one of the taxi company that gives you a cheaper cab ride, but you need to have a phone to call.
Cleanliness: 4/5.
Host(s): Extremely hospitable hosts and staff that made us feel at home. The staff were so passionate about introducing us to all the food they think were good. They even packed us some breakfast after knowing we were having an early day and will miss their homemade breakfast. Do have their homemade breakfast! They incorporated local famous food in and it's delicious!
Design: 5/5. That's why i chose the minsu (aka local's home). The design was beautiful and elaborated.
Facilities: high end furniture and electrical appliances in the room. wifi everywhere in the minsu. Has lift. Has free cup noodles.
Additional comments:
- Free facial masks when we checked out, such a surprise!
- free shuttle from Hualien TRA station
