The colorful children's theme is perfect for photos, easy to browse, and very relaxing. The craft museum has many exhibits, and the "Magic Modified Three Brothers" display is very amusing. The hundred-dollar admission fee is excellent value, and it can be used as a discount for dining and DIY activities. The food is delicious, and the environment is comfortable. I'm looking forward to using the practical finished product after painting and glazing. Delicious food, fun activities, and painting square plates – highly recommended!

I stayed here for several consecutive nights on a business trip. First, I want to commend the hotel's breakfast. In the past, I often encountered the same dishes every day, which became very tiresome. However, this hotel's breakfast offers variety in its hot dishes, which is truly excellent.

Great 4.0
The location is excellent, right next to Chaotian Temple, which is practically the busiest area in Beigang. There are many old shops to browse, see, and eat at. Parking is also free and you can even leave your car until after check-out, which is a huge plus. However, my room shared a main entrance with another room, so when someone rang the doorbell, it would also ring in my room. The lock on my room door was also very simple. It seems like this guesthouse was converted from an apartment. If this bothers you, I recommend booking the Pilgrimage Hotel instead of the Pilgrimage Guesthouse.
