No problem filling with a garden hose. I drank out of one until I was 15. Might taste or smell funny but won't hurt you at all. I usually don't worry to much about what goes into the tank. If folks really knew what their public water system looked like they would know the garden hose is the least of their worries.
At any rate, we just use the tank water for bathing and doing dishes. I have a separate filtered faucet for drinking water. Also, you can simply buy (if it's not all gone) gallons of drinking water from WalMart and use that for consumption.
The only thing a white hose does is not impart any smell or taste into the water. Nothing really special about it.
