"The hotel is easy to reach from the Chiayi station. The taxi ride took less than ten minutes with very reasonable taxi fare. Great location if you need to catch an early train to Alishan."
"The hotel and room are “basic” but serve a very practical purpose if you’re in Chiayi or doing a tour to Alishan. The shower is powerful too and the bed and pillows were amazing! The room looks old, but it’s perfect what a decent sleep!"
