> 彼は、どうも彼女に会いにこの展望台を訪れているようです

It seems that he visited the lookout to meet her

In terms of どうも, the person in question has already visited her several times
and there really isn't much difficulty in doing so. So the somehow/no matter
what definition is hard to apply here.

thank you

Use of どうも　in this sentence
That どうも or どうやら are a kind of adverbs called 呼応の副詞 (guiding adverb), which
alone doesn't really work but leads a certain type of predicates according to
each word, in this case, conjecture through observation like …ようだ or …らしい.

Even without どうも, the meaning of the sentence doesn't change.

もし, なぜなら, 決して or so are this kind too.
