Great staff, friendly atmosphere. Clean, basic dorm rooms with very sturdy beds. The owner and staff were great. I'd definitely stay there again.

Must be one, if not best hostel in hualien. Can be hard to get to with the directions but worth it. Great staff! Nice clean beds and good showers. Will help out with local info if need place to eat etc. Lounge area is great and awesome DVD collection! Definitely worth it!

Staff is very helpful. Besides, the location is good which just take 15 to 20 min by walk from train station to hostel or from central to hostel. Furthermore, the place is cleanliness and the lobby is comfortable.

Absolutely the best hostel I've ever been! (and I've been in many places) The staff were really really nice and helpful. For example they took us to nearby breakfast places. Couple of days after leaving, I even got a "How it's going"-message from them. The room was big and very clean.

I stayed at the Monkey Surfing Backpackers Hostel for one night. The common area was of spacious and you can easily meet friends there. The room was clean and tidy. The hostel host was really friendly and helpful. And she helps me a lot for my journey! Highly recommended!

This place is truly excellent and looks exactly as the pictures portray it. Very stylish, very clean, and very cheap. The staff and owners are great and will go out of their way to help you. I was originally planning on just staying for 2-3 days and intending up being there for well over a week because I liked the place so much. このホステルは最高だ! 施設はきれいだし、サービスも良いし。 一部の店員は英語と日本語でも少しい話せるので、お客様が

Wow. What a place. It is located in a quiet side street and is in walking distance to the bus and train station. Lots of good and cheap hawker stalls and small restaurants about ten minutes away. The dorms are bright and nice but the best thing is that each bed has a super thick, soft mattress and a fluffy down pillow. Each dorm has an ensuite bathroom with a rain shower. The place is hospital clean. Super friendly and helpful owner and staff.

It's a great place with nice people and a beautiful living room. It builds as a four-levels villa, with a small garden. The host collects a lot of books and movies. It's a very special place! I love it!
