      Amazing sunrise experience ”

      Our first time in Hualien could not have been more enjoyable without 白色風車. The host was so nice to pick us up from the train station late at night, and understanding that we haven't had dinner, offered to drop us at Dongdamen Night Market nearby to grab some food while she helped us to check-in with our luggage. This morning we were greeted with the rays of the sun emerging from the horizon of the sea - it was an impressive scene from our window. Our host had already prepared a simple but hearty breakfast for us. On a side note, the room was big and clean, and the bathroom facilities were great too, with strong water pressure and fast water heating. If we did not have to rush off for the rest of our trip, we would definitely stay here for at least another day or two.

      The hosts were very nice and gave us a lift from the train station at night. They kindly made small gift for our family on the Christmas day. The house is located on small lane next to the beach so we could walk along the beach in the morning. Iti s also in a walking distance to Dongdamen night market. Room is cozy with full amenities provided. We felt like home and slept well as it was quiet. For breakfast they prepared sandwiches and tea packs; no hot serve (perhaos due to post covid time). Some improvements may be the cleanliness of the balcony and the front terrace.

      The host & staffs are all very nice, friendly & helpful. The room is exactly as in the pictures. Nice, spacious & the bed is very comfortable. I would suggest to add on with 2 little bolsters would be great. The balcony has the sea view as advertised. I love the chandelier. Their breakfast tastes good and the portion is just nice for us. The location is good as well. Just a few mins walk to DongDaMen Night Market. It is very nice of the hosts to get our permission to go in our room to clean up while we have our breakfast. Although we preferred to get it done later on while we were out and they did a good job. On our last day, the host check with our itinerary & even offered to help us book a taxi since we needed one. There is no extra charges or anything, just by the meter. We love their helpfulness & friendliness. Just that there are no lift & we have to climb up & down 4 storey everyday. It’s a little hectic for us since we have been walking for the whole day. And the pipe beside the toilet bowl is a little noisy cause the pipe will jump once somebody uses the water & not only our units, when other units used the water, the pipe will jump too. Hahaa... I got scared by it twice before getting used to it. It has been bothering me the 1st night as I didn’t know about the pipe until I got scared by it in the middle of the night when I was right beside it. I supposed it is caused by the water pressure but perhaps can improve on it. And 1 more thing is perhaps can add a shower curtain or install a door at the shower area as the water splashed out while showering which makes the whole floor or rather the floor towel wet. Other than those cons, everything else is good. We still love this place although we experienced a 4.1 Earthquake that night. It’s a little shocking to us but not too bad as we had experienced earthquake before & we heard it’s common in Hualien. We would like to thank the hosts for giving us a customized souvenir & letting us have a great stay. If we w

      We enjoyed our stay. We were in the 2nd building so no view of the water. Beds were comfortable”

      It was nice to be able to use the kitchen and living room area after we put our kids to bed or when it was raining outside. We stayed in the 2nd building so no views of the ocean. Staff were friendly and helped set us up for whale watching (no whales but many dolphins!) The towels were disposable, we didn't love them.

      Lady boss very friendly and attentive. She arranged for us to be picked up from 1st building to 2nd building. She relocated us due to providing us more privacy. Nice breakfast prepared as well. Rooms are cosy with neccessary amenities provided
