"Pros: Fantastic host, he came to give us the key during check in (we must appoint arrival time in advance because he will come from another place within 3-5 mins after I text SMS that I arrived our room) and brief us about his room and facilities. super big room with kitchen and the view from the bed was stunning. Location is within 3-5 mins from Tea house in the center of Jiufen but it's private, quiet and safe for walking at night. Last but it's the most important is the breakfast in the coffee shop opposite of our stay. It's just only fresh baked bread and veggie salad (no egg) and coffee/tea but it's well prepared and valuable for our stay (breakfast time is quite late during 9.30-11.00). Car parking lot that he advised was not far, but we must climb the stairs up to the hotel (better than walking along the road) and we paid parking fee 400 TWD at the machine. Cons: The key at the glass door is difficult to open, so we lock only the steel gate door outside that's okey for our safety." ~Subanake
