苔米屋 (Timing House)

星級評價以住宿資訊（酒店提供的服務及設施等）綜合因素為準，僅供參考

This place was in a great location (right next to a 7/11) and the staff were helpful and kind. Recommend buying boat tickets from them as they give you a discount!

The room was big and sunny, and the bed was comfortable. It was decorated well and very cute. The kitchen area/entrance way is a shared communal space with the family who owns the guest house, so it felt a bit like an Airbnb, which was not a problem for us. Very friendly hosts.

The Timing was the best place I stayed in during my 2 weeks traveling around Taiwan. The place is so cute, clean, and super convenient to everything. I highly recommend this place.

Not only the room is clean, it’s creatively designed and decorated. There’s also a garden with koi fish pond and Totoro-themed decorations throughout. In addition, it’s walking distance to the bus station and 7-11, a true gem in the world of hostels.

The place is very cute and the people who welcomed us were very nice! They face some good recommendations for food and let us know about activities we can do. It's in a convenient location in the sense that there are a couple of restaurants near by and the bus station is super close. This town is small though so there isn't too much to do otherwise but you can easily rent some bikes or take a ferry. The only things we didn't like was that the bathroom offered almost no privacy at all. We can see almost right through it and it opens into the room and you can hear every little thing. There is also no window so everything in the bathroom doesn't really vent anywhere despite the little vent fan working overtime :( the room also smelled a bit from the toilets and sewage system, despite the place being very clean.

Great location - front entrance is through a bike store, the back entrance leads to the bus terminal and the ferry terminal. Staff was helpful and provided recommendations for touring the lake and food options. The rooms were Totoro-themed and spacious. Sound-proofing was not the best, but sufficient for a good rest.

Staffs are friendly and helpful.

A cozy little place

Timing House is located on a cliff, so it has two entrances on two levels. The back entrance corresponds to the listed address (123 Zhongshan Road) and is behind a bike rental shop. This entrance is very close to the bus stops/tourist information centre. The front/guest entrance has easy access to the public car park and a 7-11. The decoration is very modern, with a Totoro theme. There's a small garden with a pond and swing and a guest kitchen/common room. The rooms are spacious and clean, but only one room actually has natural light. My room doesn't, but as compensation, there's an indoor garden feature with lovely Totoro family statues, which makes you feel like you have access to nature. However, the lack of natural ventilation meant there was a slight drain smell that got stronger after a shower. You might want to plan your showers so you can run the extractor fan (which is tied to the lighting) for a while afterwards. The hosts are very friendly and can offer local advice and discounted vouchers for the ferries and bikes.

The place is quite nice. The room feels quite stylish, with a tiny garden separated by glass panel. The bathroom is very nice. I would come back to this hotel again
