A great location right next to the train station. Steve the owner speaks perfect English and was extremely helpful with some good tips. Its a bit of a walk to downtown (15-25 mins), but if you hire a motor scooter for TWD500 from one of the many agents around the train station, you're all set, especially for exploring such as the brilliant Taroka gorge and the beautiful East coast drive! The hotel is basic but clean and is serviced every day...and the price beats staying in a hostel! Definitely recommended!
