On the same street as Wyndham Sun Moon Lake, but cost 10x less. Good for 1-2nights stay. Clean place with private, lockable cabins, and very near the ITA Thao shopping street and pier. You can walk along the lake to the cable car station and the Nine Frogs Stack 九蛙疊像. Even though the opening hours of some food stores are quite unpredictable, there are plenty of options and two convenience stores around.

Potential bug bite

I think I had bug bites after this, because after check-out and returning home, I had itches and found several bite marks. Please take care in cleaning the bedsheets, blankets, pillow cases, and towels.

需要諮詢實際旅遊經驗

比較喜歡去年年初女老闆的旅遊景點介紹；因為若要一些業配類的圖文資訊，何須再向他們詢問呢？ 環境一樣乾淨&舒適&方便覓食，還是值得推薦。

公共設施與硬體設備佳，但房客素質不行

服務人員很親切，接待服務很好。房間安排在個人背包房，是在上層，樓梯其實不太好爬，需要手腳並用，爬進房間裡，若是手腳不是太靈活的人，上下樓梯其實有點怕怕的。因為是集中住宿，雖然有密閉空間，但是隔板較薄，敵不過半夜動靜還是很大的隔壁房客，要注意很多人出入公共門的電子警示音以及個人的聲響。

整體環境跟服務是不錯的，只是睡覺時發現冷氣會對著吹，剛好本身對於這部分比較敏感所以就感冒了（苦笑）。
