早餐

房間霉味重，晚上睡覺6位家人整晚有四位都帶著口罩睡，其中有一位全身發癢。 訂房時看照片覺得還不錯，網站評論8.8下訂，到現場check in時給的房間是在大馬路兩旁，一邊一間在二樓，樓梯太陡，上下樓梯差點摔倒，沙發髒、浴室小又不方正，晚上天花板裝的流動空氣扇喀拉喀拉響，關掉後空調無法調強弱，在大馬路旁邊晚上一直被路過車聲吵醒。 馬路另外一邊兩間房間，進門動線狹小又多角、空氣潮濕有霉味，與平台所顯示的照片落差很大，真的感受到他人説的‘’照騙‘’，其中親子房上層床舖睡不到半小時全身發癢！ 所訂三間房外觀看起來都是老舊鐵皮屋改建，而且三間房門鎖都是一般的傳統鑰匙鎖，內門沒有加裝內栓，睡覺沒安全感，深怕半夜被開鎖闖入。 當初在平台要訂房時看網路評價8.8分，算是高分，並且平日訂房房價又三千多，想必是不錯的民宿，實際卻落差很大，這是我們碰到最差一次的平台訂房經驗，往後不會再考慮透過貴平台訂房了。

老闆很熱心

無

住宿地點機能好，房間設備齊全乾淨 台式早餐清粥小菜餐點口味好吃

Wi-Fi不穩定，在房間特定位置才接收的到訊號 房間隔音不行，幸運的是隔壁沒有房客，要不可能會被我們小孩的吵鬧聲打擾

房間舒適 餐點很飽

The couple owner is very very nice. They are very friendly and chat with customers

The room is very small for 5 people

房間比較老舊，冷氣睡到一半還壞掉，很熱。

Die Herbergseltern waren sehr hilfsbereit und haben uns gute Tipps für Ausflüge und Transport gegeben. Nach Rückkehr von unseren Ausflügen haben wir im Teeladen Tee verkostet.

Es gibt kaum Restaurants in Xiding (außer Hot Pot) , was das Abendessen etwas erschwert, es gibt aber einen Convenience Store der 24 Stunden geöffnet hat.

Lovely hosts sharing tea drinking ritual with us and providing local delicious authentic breakfast. Perfect location for nature lovers.

Great location, right by the bus stop to/from Alishan and Chiayi so easy to get to both spots. Also walking distance to the Tea and Mist trail and Eryanping trail. Good sized room, Japanese toilet and a bath! Huge, varied breakfast to set you up for the day and the most wonderful hosts offering tea tasting and a chat via google translate! They also drove us to the sunset and were always on hand to help out if we had any questions.

It is quite expensive - but that is just the area, we think this is the best value spot you could find!

老闆娘服務態度很好，很熱情

性價比不是很合理

Great location. Walking distance to various tracking points. Room is just nice for 2 of us. Breakfast was prepared by lady boss, very delicious.

None

The friendly and helpful owner couple and the homely setting of the property. The excellent location is conveniently accessible by buses to Jiayi and Fengqihu.

No nice cafe and eatery nearby

空間舒服，老闆熱情親切，早餐用心好吃。

L'hospitalité des hôtes. La localisation de l'hébergement. L'espace de la chambre bien agencé pour un couple et 3 enfants. Le petit déjeuner très copieux, fait maison et qui change tous les jours, un vrai délice.

숙소가 버스터미널 바로 앞이라 교통이 좋았음. 주인이 친절하고 방이 예쁨

The hosts were very kind. They drove us to a nearby restaurant and welcomed us for tea with them. The views were great from this property. They also prepared breakfast earlier for us as we wanted to go see the sunrise.

It is a tight space and not recently renovated. It would be more suitable for 3 or 4 people instead of 5.

Great location and the hotel owners were extremely kind. When we first arrived gave us tea and fresh pears to eat and were extremely hospitable. The breakfast in the morning is also extremely good.

The hosts are just lovely! Never met David, but his parents are the absolute bees-knees! I was late arriving, and when the bus pulled up outside their house, guess who was already waiting for me with a huge smile? I was then offered a lift to the local eatery, of which there are precious few around (more of that later), and subsequently collected when the restaurant rang them. Extraordinary. I was visiting Alishan National Park, ergo my 2 night stay at David's House. Overall, the sum here is much greater than the individual parts that are, David's House. On my travels, I occasionally come across an establishment whereby normal rules simply do not apply. You can see from the attached pics what the room and hotel was physically, actually like. However, you may also be able to deduce from the various smiles, what the essence of David's House is all about. If I returned, I would certainly stay here, I would just bring some extra provisions for late night feasts as I'm not accustomed to going to my bed too early. Just me... Highly Recommended.

You're in the middle of nowhere, literally. I know, I walked a couple of kilometres either way of David's House, and saw very little of note. There is a lifesaving petrol station a short walk away, which sells beer, and food that can be microwaved at the hotel, (there is a microwave available to use on the ground floor), just in case you're here for a couple of day's. The room is basic, and of a different age but clean, so no issues for me. Although I travel fairly extensively, my palate is poor and unrefined, so the breakfast offerings may well suit the majority reading this, but did not quite hit the mark for me. I survived, so it can't have been that bad. It was fine, just not what I would have normally chosen, and please don't message me to say I was in XXX, so this is what I should expect. It is what, it is, which is exactly how I tell it...

住宿的地方交通很方便。看日出看夕陽都用走的即可。。早餐是老闆娘親自下廚很好吃。。老闆夫婦倆很熱情一直招待現泡的茶。

早餐很好吃，老闆 老闆娘 很親切

中式早餐十分豐盛,住宿地點方便,離步道和超商都很近,老闆夫妻十分親切友善!

Breakfast was amazing - it differed each morning, with great variety of dishes and more than enough food. Hosts were very lovely, kind and helpful - they didn't have much english but are excellent on google translate. They organised hot pot booking for us at a nearby hotel/restaurant (excellent), told us where to find a good sunrise that was 5 minutes down the road and did a lovely tea sampling (tea was delicious) with us while we talked via translate. Would recommend staying here.

Best thing is that the property was right in front of the bus stop. The room with the bunk bed was very nice, the bathroom was spacious and was equipped with a Japanese toilet (with a seat warmer and bidet). The owner provided us with a welcome tea session and recommended us a hotpot place. The portion of the hotpot was alot so depends on your stomach capacity. The owner also would drove us to and fro the dinner place.

About the hotpot, personally i wouldn't go for it again as the portion was too big. The hotpot place required everyone to have one serving. We had the option to have one portion for 2 pax, but still was too much. Had alot of leftovers which was such a waste. The room with 2 double beds had a smaller bathroom and the walls would get wet after a shower.

早餐餐點很豐富，但只有一種選擇，建議再多些選項。

從進住到離開一共看到3隻蟑螂，包括在廁所內及床墊旁到處亂竄，建議再加強清潔。

下次也会选择这里

老闆娘很熱情

Good location, clean room and helpful owner.

環境和老闆娘

地點方便、枕頭舒適、馬桶是免治馬桶還有溫熱功能！ 窗多看星星看日出都合適，接待人員親切，一直問我們要不要下樓到旁邊泡茶。

雙人房如果可以再便宜一點就好了。

環境整潔

沒

The owners were absolutely lovely. Very kind people who are willing to help out with finding the bus to Alishan Recreation Park and always offering some tea and a nice conversation.

There was some mould in the bathroom.

有閣樓，家庭住宿有隱私感。

因為通風不良，房間內充滿廁所的霉味。

local host was very nice and helpful! Breakfast was well prepared, huge portion of Taiwanese flavour Local host recommended dinner places, and also recommended the Aishan route etc. Very helpful. near 7-11, grocery stores.

the room was an interesting setup. just that the maisonette level is a little too low; kids and adults can hit their head on the ceiling if not careful.

Everything about it! The owners were very very friendly, welcoming, helpful and generous. Even though we could only communicate very little in Taiwanese, they were very eager to talk to us (sometimes we had to resort to google translate) and always offered us tea which was a very nice way to get to know them and the culture. Accommodation was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was amazing (ask for Taiwanese breakfast). Location is also perfect to the hiking trails! Very recommended!

Nothing :)))

The owners welcome travellers from the heart and take great care to ensure that you enjoy your stay in Xiding. Dietary needs are considered for a delicious breakfast. The room is spacious and bed is comfortable. Location next to the bus stop with a 24 hr convenience store 100 metres away. The sunrise viewpoint is just down the road while Eryanping is a 40 minute walk. The owners grow and sell tea and it’s great to sit around and have a chat over tea.

Nothing

the owners are super nice and heartwarming! they grow their own tea and always invite us to drink tea whenever they meet us at the lobby. They even offer to drive us to the restaurant after we finish the hike. Big thumbs up!

nothing

The location was great and the staff was very friendly. Breakfast was delicious!

It is a little bit pricy, but still one of the cheapest options in the area.

Very generous and welcoming couple who also own the tea shop nearby. Amazing and generous tawainese breakfast. The bed was confortable and it's pretty quiet at night even though we are on a main road. Well situated in the area, convenient if you use the bus (bus stop is right in front of the house). We had a great time drinking tea with them on our last day. Totally recommanded!

Nothing!

Interesting owners, very fun to talk with over tea

David's parents run the show and they are very kind people. This was my first homestay and I loved it. I was single female traveling and the accommodation they gave me was really secure, the entire yellow building you see in pictures which was securely locked at night. Since buses run at an hours frequency and only until 5 pm'ish I would suggest travelers to arrive early, the bus stops right in front of house. Food prepared by aunty was really tasty and a lot. Uncle was always inviting for tea and I have good memories of chatting with them and other guest over the tea. Very welcoming folks. They helped me buy some local Cypress chopsticks, plan the day, find vegetarian restaurants were always willing to listen to my days story 🤓 I didn't know if hugging was allowed while leaving but my heart really melted when aunty just hugged me when I left. Wonderful people to be with 🥰♥️

The staff are wxtremely helpful and genuine people. Thats enough

delicious home cooked breakfast -nicest hosts, wish I could have stayed longer just to hang out and drink tea with them- they are so kind, funny, fun loving people.

Nothing, but I wish my Chinese was better to communicate better with hosts.

The breakfast was very balanced and filling.

Hosts super friendly, clean place, delicious Taiwanese breakfast and we were also able to try some local tea.

The place is clean and spacious. The owners are very help. She helped to fetch our luggages. Give good suggestions of where to go. Teach us how to use bus apps. Which is the best way to get to the HSR station. Her husband went an extra mile to wait and pick us from the Eryanping trail when it got dark and we were not back. They have excellent breakfast. Definitely will stay again .

Very nice place to stay, the hosts are really attentive and lovely and give you a nice introduction to the tea culture in the area. The room and bathroom were really clean, good water pressure and amenities. We got an amazing Taiwanese breakfast too. For dinner, the host drove us to the hot pot restaurant on the other side of town.

We had a great time, handy being right near the bus stop and the hosts are extremely friendly and helpful.

Its location right outside their village bus stop makes it very convenient for first time travellers to find. The hosts were very welcoming and forthright in providing advice and suggestions on touring around Alishan. Breakfast was the most delicious meal I had.

Nothing! Everything was wonderful! Perhaps this hotel is a tad more pricier than the others i stayed during my trip in taiwan. But it was understandable for its location and season.

Special people. Amazing location. Beautiful walks.

Very friendly owners, they gave a warm welcome. The room was nice, with a good bed and nice shower. Nearby are some trails for hiking with amazing views.

Mdm Liu and her husband was most friendly and accomodating. They invited us for a chitchat session while trying out their teas. They were also helpful in arranging for dinner, travel routes and transportation when required.

The long bus ride.

Cleaniness level was good. Host were very friendly, they even invited us to have a tea drinking session with them. Breakfast has vegetarian and non vegetarian options. Big space to put our luggage in the room, there's even heater for the toilet bowl. And most importantly, there's a bus stop infront of the stay for bus 7329 and 7322 to Alishan or back to Chia Yi HSR and Chia Train station respectively.

NA

Convenient! Right in front of the bus stop

No view from the room but acceptable as there’s nice view within few steps from the home.

Nice and cosy, easy to get around too

Location is good, convenient, host is super nice n brkfst is good!

The breakfast was delicious, local dishes and we liked it so much we finished all every day😋. Owner made an effort to prepare different dishes each day. The vegetables was home grown and fresh. Fruit and desert was served as well. The owners are very friendly and approachable, offer advices where we could spent our day there and tiny things like which train route we should take as we have elderly. They also invited us to have tea after meals and we had a good chat in the night.

N/a

The owner provided typical Taiwanese breakfast and was very delicious. She also drove us to the trailhead, which was really thoughtful.

The room was a bit small.

Excellent hosts, great location, facilities were good. Lookout point for sunrise is just 2 minutes walk away, and there’s a great trail just down the road. Highly recommend if you are traveling to Alishan

Very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good as well. I was only looking for a room to sleep in and it was all good. I booked last minute so I may have paid a premium but overall the price was pretty high for what it is.
