The staff were friendly and the room was fine, but there was always some noise coming from outside and this side of the train station isn’t great. Would recommend staying somewhere on the east side of Chiayi station instead.

乾淨舒適、附近吃飯方便、走路到文化路夜市偏遠

入住時獲得升等為有浴缸及木質地板的房間,服務人員態度親切。房間打掃舒適整潔,床軟硬適中。衣櫃是穿透性設計,讓房間看起來顯得大些。燈光明亮。飯店本身沒有停車場,但附近約3分鐘路程處有收費停車場,平日上限150 、假日200元,且有UBIKE可租借。飯店補助停車費100-150。早餐以中式早餐為主,以商務飯店早餐而言,算中規中矩,選擇不多但可口。

隔音真的太可怕了⋯外面的聲音跟隔壁的聲音都好像直接在房間裡的聲音一樣,一開始還遇到冰箱裡有很多螞蟻,雖然櫃檯有請人打掃跟換冰箱了,但整體住宿體驗不太好,房間煙味也很重
