"Location Staff kindly let us stored our luggage for another 3 days with little fee, much appreciated Self checking in is clear No elevator but there is a cute luggage elevator which was helpful"
"Bed wasn't comfortable, pillows were too high and blanket was thin Bad sound insulation Room was cold"
"The location is extremely close to the train station as well as to a lot of shops/restaurants and the night market which was very convenient! I also liked the value of the private room. It had everything I needed for a one night stay. Another plus was that they have coin-operated washer and dryer machines (you have to pay but I'm happy it was available for use and includes laundry detergent you can use). Even though the staff only spoke a little bit of English, they were very friendly to me and tried their best to help me! :)"
"No complaints, this stay met my expectations."
"Location was quite near to the chiayi station. The room was clean and pillow and mattress were so comfy."
"If they provide towel would be awesome"
"Very close to the train station and walking distance to Wenhua Night Market. Modern facilities."
"They didn’t let me check in before the time even though the room was ready. The mattress was on the floor and was quite hard. I like a hard mattress but this one was a but extreme."
"Easy self check in and very convenient location to stop off en route to Alishan. Room was comfy and there was lots of social space."
"Everything was fine given the price of the room. With the futon bed the furniture could be better thought through to being ground level."
"Super well organized. Had laundry on site. Very helpful staff."
"Aucun."
"I stayed here so that I could visit Alishan. It is in a great location. Very close to the train and buses as well as one of the night markets and some of the other sights in Chiayi. The room is quite small, but as a solo traveler I did not mind. It is a fair price for a private room and bathroom. There is no natural light in the room and the lights arent very bright, so it might not be a place you want to hang out, but this didn't bother me because I was out most of the day and only returned to go to sleep."
"Aucun."
"They try to keep all the environment good and the community room space was nice. We were able to watched some movies there."
"To e mattress is a little hard for me."

"到鹿野高台很近 十幾分就到了 民宿主人都很客氣 民宿旁也種了很多植物 還有很特別的雞 環境也弄得很不錯"
"Staff was so helpful and ensuring we got dinner at restaurants. The day of departure we were giving a ride to the train station. The hosts speak very little English but was overcome with Apps. Area was quiet and near visitor centre and the jump off point of the paragliding. Great breakfasts; one at b&b abd one packed at day of departure."

"Great stay! Walking distance to some great duck noodles and a good breakfast spot in the morning. Responsive hosts. Quiet and clean. Would recommend"
"Japanese Quad room: I hardly ever give a 10 rating but this place really deserves it. It was the nicest accommodation out of 10 different properties where I stayed this time in Taiwan. The room is cozy, bright, beautiful with a peaceful energy. There are 9 windows in the room ! The Tatami bedroom was a bliss with very comfortable mattresses. The breakfast was delicious and was presented in a beautiful way. The host family was very friendly, kind and interesting. The house is located in a beautiful , natural and quiet surrounding. The garden felt very comfortable and the sound of frogs and crickets in the evening created a soothing soundtrack."
"We were originally looking for a place to stay in Chishang, but everything there was fully booked because of a big local event. Luckily, we found this Airbnb nearby — and it turned out to be way beyond our expectations! The area sits along the beautiful Taitung Longitudinal Valley. While Chishang is the most famous town, Gaoliao offers the same stunning scenery but with fewer crowds. Route 193, which connects these small towns, is one of the most beautiful drives in Taiwan. This Airbnb is truly a hidden gem — clean, cozy, and full of a warm, family vibe. The hosts are super friendly and welcoming. We had such a lovely stay. Highly recommend, and thank you again!"
"It had a great location and was very clean. They held our bags before we checked in which was kind of them."
