Yilan Hotels with balcony

"A family of 5: the kids enjoyed the room with the slide v much. The 3 queen beds(2 on upper loft) and 1 on lower floor were very comfortable, pillows offered decent support. A fan was provided in room to circulate the air. Kids really enjoyed sliding down but sound proofing of the room not that thick so we were told that the kids were too noisy. The staff were v helpful with the carpark arrangement at a separate site, we didn’t have to worry abt getting a carpark lot on all 3 days.  Not so great: The Minsu’s toilet has no non-slip flooring or bathmats inside so hard to dry the toilet floor after a shower. Shampoo & body soap provided though. No shower curtains. Staff didn’t make up the room although we hung the tag to clean room. They did apologise when we asked abt it.  All in all, a restful stay, with good space for the family with our 2 luggages opened on the sofa. Would recommend if kids are young & would love the slide room. Walking distance to Luodong Night Market too."

"The location is great, about a 3-5 minute walk to Tangweigou Hot Spring Park. There's a free parking lot about a 3-minute walk from the hotel (though you can't drive out between 10 PM and 8 AM). Right across from the hotel, there's another parking lot available for NT$250, valid until check-out the next day. The hotel also offers bicycles for guests to borrow. The room was a bit small because they dedicated most of the space to a large, clean bathroom. The hot spring soak was very relaxing. Soundproofing was decent. On the second floor, there's a good selection of complimentary drinks and coffee. Given the price, I'd definitely consider staying here again! 👍"

"I really loved the Yuanben Mountain & Ming Shui Hsiu Resort. The surrounding area has free hot spring foot baths, and you can enjoy delicious, freshly baked bread and nougat cakes from Yih Shun Hsiang, along with many authentic Yilan delicacies. The hotel staff are very friendly, and there's free WiFi. The rooms with hot spring baths allow you to soak anytime. The large TV was perfect for watching the live World Cup matches, and there's also free parking. It offers great value for money. I'll definitely be staying here again! Thumbs up! 👍"

"The location was incredibly convenient, close to both the train station and night market by scooter. The accommodation had an elevator, and the hallways were bright and clean. The bathroom even had a heater, so it never felt damp after showering. The reception staff were friendly during check-in, and initially, I had a great impression of the place. However, the luggage storage and assistance service after check-out were extremely disappointing. Check-out was managed with a 'guests out, no entry' policy, and there were no staff members around at the time. Seeing other guests who had checked out also leaving their luggage on the first floor, we did the same, intending to go buy some refrigerated souvenirs. Later, I specifically called to ask if I could borrow their fridge to store food. The first staff member I spoke to said that once we returned to the guesthouse, we should call again, and they would come down to open the door for us. Upon returning to the guesthouse, I called again. This time, a different staff member answered and asked us to wait a moment. We waited outside the door for a full 20 minutes, with no one proactively informing us of the situation or calling back to explain. We just sat there by the door. Eventually, a new guest arrived, and unable to enter, I explained to them that we were waiting for staff to open the door. They were also incredulous that we had been waiting for 20 minutes and kindly offered to call on our behalf. After hanging up, they told me, 'It seems like they are inside.' Less than 3 minutes later, someone came downstairs and opened the door for us. If there truly were staff inside the whole time, yet they left guests waiting outside for 20 minutes without any explanation or response, it's truly baffling and makes you feel completely disrespected. Even if it's just helping retrieve stored items or refrigerating food, I'd at least expect to be proactively informed of how long the wait would be or given an update on the situation, rather than being left completely in the dark, waiting outside. Overall, the accommodation environment itself was indeed good, but this post-checkout service experience significantly impacted my impression of this guesthouse. I hope that in the future, they can improve the handover and communication processes among staff to prevent other travelers from encountering the same situation."

"The location is easy for travel in the area and the room is spacious and clean. There is a bathtub provided and window view is good as well."
