This minsu is reasonably priced, and offers comfort for travellers. The room i had was a decent size and it was clean. The bathroom was a decent size as well. Although its about 15 minutes away from the Hualien Train station on foot, the location its in is nice and quiet. Kimi, the Minsu owner, is friendly and very helpful.... More

Walking distance from the station (10 min). I discovered that hualien's streets are quite easy to recognise so you will find your way quickly to this place. Tim welcomed me. Since I was in a hurry to see taroko gorge and buses do not go regularly, Tim decided to bring me to the station. I already asked him information about... More

Walking distance from the train station (5-10 minutes i'd say), this nice and cozy Homestay was the most comfy stay in our 12 day incursion in Taiwan. The couple who run it was very friendly and the room we got was clean, comfy and convenient. One of the days we even got a sweet local delicacy as a present from... More

After a business trip I went to see more of Taiwan. Since I had only 6 days for myself I went to some of the highlights. One of those highlights was the Taroko-gorge. I found out that the easiest way was to take the Tarogo hop-on hop-off bus in Hualien. Hualien itself is not so special (sorry) however the hotel... More

There are several good reviews on Trip Advisors website. I chose to stay here after looking the reviews. Similar to my preview review on another hotel in Hualien. I agree with some of the review but I am not satisfied. I stayed for 2 nights with my family, so we booked a double room adding one bed to the room.... More

This is a really good homestay. From the moment we stepped in, the owner, Claire, had been the most helpful. There were a lot of times where she really went out of her way to help us arrange our itinerary, getting transport etc. Her heart was so big, it made hualien even bigger than it already is. The room is... More

Stayed at Mistro and would definitely recommend it - Claire was a great host, went out of her way to help out guests and help them get oriented to the town. The place is clean and well-maintained, with tea available anytime downstairs. The main floor (common space) has wifi with a good signal. The location is about a 5-10 minute... More

Was deciding between Mistro Homestay and another minsu, but settled for 2 nights stay at Mistro due to availability. Certainly glad that this was the case. Minsu owner, Claire, responded very promptly to my email queries and she could use English to reply my emails. She arranged for a driver to bring us around, upon our request, and help us... More

My group of 7 chose to stay at Mistro Homestay, due mainly to the positive feedback from this forum, as well as the prompt reply that made our reservation a breeze. We were not disappointed. The rooms were big and unbelievably clean. From the communal areas, to our own rooms, the whole place is so well maintained that we wished... More
