The location is fantastic, right on the best site. The service personnel, Miss Hsieh, is very friendly, and patient. I had a wonderful visit and highly appreciate Miss Hsieh's help in resolving some minor issues, such as reset the WiFi.
Let me tell everyone about my experience at DEER TRAVELER. My visit included serious problems in the living room area that can directly cause health problems.
1/ There were bugs crawling on the dinning tables in the living room area. i took a picture of at least 3 bottles of pesticides inside the same room.
2/ The Host in 30 Celsius tempeture weather will not let the AC run in the living room area, and refused to let me open the window as it will damage his property. i have his demand in an email via EXPEDIA.
3/ The host verbally demand living room area is off limits after 2300 hours each evening, however does not provide the hour it re-opens each day so the guest are locked inside there room only during unknown hours.
4/ Showers are taken between 0800 to 2200 hours each day. There are 4 beds in my room.
5/ My locker key did not work. i emailed the HOST for repair or a new locker. He insisted the locker key was cut 2 sided, and i was using it incorrectly. I showed the HOST the locker key in my hand was cut one sided only.
6/ The HOST is truly dishonest after i arrived to add the addition house rules as it was not mentioned in the original ad.
This place is very convinient for arriving at the lake area by bus from Taichung / Taipei. I bought cheap fruit nearby and ate at the convinience store right next door. The round the lake bicycle trail is very near. I walked it just after arrival. My host was Peggy and she spoke english well.
