The staff is amazing and extremely helpful, but this is unfortunately the only good thing about our stay. The A/C was not strong enough to combat the summer heat in a small room, construction works were ongoing till late at night in the house nearby, and the overall condition of the house are very basic. The pictures at hotels.com are compensated by the beautiful scenery, but don't reflect the true condition of the house. Besides, the walking distance to Jiufen old street is about 30 mins (not 11 mins as stated at hotels.com) and involves hiking so better be equipped with a flashlight if you plan to return at night
The villa was too far from jiufen, The villa wasn't maintained because the room was dirty.
The caretaker was courteous but doesn't know how to speak english.
We had a few issues with the local language as the staff spoke no english but they tried their best. It wasnt near the old street so we had to either take a taxi or bus. There were some lovely views! Overall not bad
Away from the mainstream. Dogs welcome. Awesome view over the sea and surrounding mountains. Lovely hotel staff. Yummy local breakfast and snacks. Comfy bed and strong but quiet AC. Small bath room but super strong shower. Great stay.
The villa is in a nice location with wonderful views. But travelers are advised to take a cab there as there are limited parking lots and the road leading to it is a long narrow-winding one.
We may have caught the housekeeper in a surprise as the room was not thoroughly cleaned on the first day. But they more than made up for it with their pleasantness
