The location is very convenient for those who arrive by train (3mn walk from train station). The property is old but well maintained, with a lovey, flowery garden in the middle. With a free bicycle, one can easily explore the surroundings (like Beinan Cultural Park, or in the fields along Beinan River, all the way to Taitung Forest Park and the Pacific Ocean). Taitung city center is also reachable by bicycle. The area around the train station is rather quiet and does not have many restaurants, but there are some within walking distance (and some more at 10-15mn by bicycle or 30mn by foot), plus 4 convenient stores open 24h (two in the station and two at 3mn by foot from hotel). For those who don't need a luxury accommodation and can "close an ear on" the lack of soundproofing when there are neighbors who talk loudly or watch TV at high volume, this is a very good place.
