          Wedding Anniversary”

          A rare trip to Hualien for our wedding anniversary, comfortable environment, and good parking. The owner even upgraded our room for free, very grateful~ It's just a pity that there is no elevator, and it's a bit difficult to carry luggage to the top floor. Other guests also closed the door with some force, which slightly affected the quality of the stay. The toilet's screen window has holes and I hope it can be updated. I hope the owner can remind guests to close the door gently, so that the facilities of the homestay can be better maintained.

          We stayed in Alibaba for 2 nights and my daughter absolutely loved it. The decoration was fun and cheery and the rooms were really clean. We loved the showers. Like most B&Bs in Taiwan, there are no lifts. So we had to lug our luggage up the stairs.

          Nice Theme B&B”

          The rooms is nicely decorated. They have different size and different theme rooms. depending on your requirement. For their standard double bed, it will be a queen size bed room. with a dressing table and a small 2 seater sofa. For their slightly bigger double bed, they have a egg swing in the room which the kids love it so much. Our kids love the fairy tale and princess design room. The host is very friendly. Helped us with our luggage and provide us with extra blanket. Do note that there is no lift. The rooms are clean and they provide indoor slippers for change at the front desk.

          We stayed in their Princess and Fairy Tale room. Princess room was slightly bigger, with a swing seats in the room. Both room have a sofa. The owner was very friendly and attended to our needs. They provide towel and amenities. The rooms was located from 2nd floor onwards. They do not have lift, so will have to carry the luggage up.
