Hello, I'm sorry that I couldn't arrive at 8:30 due to some things, but I think this does not affect your right to check out. I can't understand why you get low scores for this reason. I suggest you do it next time. Choose a hotel with a 24-hour front desk instead of a B&B, thank you.

Room space, interior & cleaniness were exactly as advertised, with hill top view. It is located on hilly site. Property manager, Kevin is polite and helpful, would receive guest who comes by bus and helps carry guest's luggage to steep steps leading to front desk & room. Highly recommend this B&B.

Very basic room, clean but could have been cleaner. Slight damp smell, but overall it was good. Kevin (at reception) speaks great English and is very helpful.

WayYoungHouse is great!
The hotel was really great. Far enough away from everything to be cozy and away from the noise but super close to old street at the same time. Great view of the area since it sits on top of a small hill/perch. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was large with a great view and the bed was super comfortable. They also provided and excellent breakfast to get you going in the morning. All of this at a great price. I would definitely stay again and recommend highly.

quite worth the money
overall it's a good experience, quite near to old street something, and the owner, Kevin is quite helpful, to book our taxi this morning. aircon is quite powerful, although the bed is a bit short as i'm 6 feet 1 inch, and the winter rain almost ruin our trip, not the owner's bad of course. cut it short, it's worth the money, considering revisit next year, but definitely not during winter time.

Very good. Kervin was very nice and very helpful. The day we arrived was a rainly day. Missed the view. Otherwise, we think it would be a very nice view because the hotel is sitting on the top of a hill. Hotel location is a bit hard to get to by walking from the bus stop. If you have heavy luggage will be a bit hard to claim the steps. Other than that, everything considrred, it is a good place to stay. We like it and will come again. Hopefully, it will be a good day.

He also speaks great English and was super helpful giving us tips and places to go all around the city! He also helped us call taxi when we needed them and made sure we got to the right place for the right price. Thank you so much Kevin and family! Highly recommend staying here:)

First timer, it was greatly greeted by the host(owner). He had been helpful and polite. Breakfast has no option but the best is it was mysterious as the host prepared by himself. It was a pleasant stay.

Good effort to keep the place clean and New!
The 2 owners put in effort to upkeep the place for the next customers. As there is a flight of outdoor stairs to walk up to the reception and rooms, they offered help to carry out luggage and very friendly. They also made good recommendations for eateries. Location is convenient.

Off the main street, so it's quiet, but not easy to find. It's also near the bus stop and a trail to Keelung Mountain. Good enough for one night and staff is friendly and helpful. Only problem was the exit light in the room has to remain on, and it's quite bright when you want to go to sleep. We covered it up with a map of Jiufen.

Good place with great staff. They cook up a delicious little breakfast. It's close to the old street as well. My only issue was a lack of cable TV, so bring something to do because the town shuts down quite early.

房間簡單乾淨且清幽
房間簡單乾淨,床鋪偏軟,環境清幽,浴室寬敞且水量大,洗起來很舒服,水溫偏高要稍微注意。 民宿管理人服務態度好,會簡介附近景點,也會建議天冷開暖氣保暖。 抵達民宿前需走一小段階梯,電視台選項不多。九份停車不易,附近停車場收費高,建議搭公車前往。

民宿主人非常nice,早餐也特別買在地傳統美味早餐。 地點往上步行即可抵達九份老街,房內有冷暖器機,浴室寬敞水壓充足,對長頭髮的太太來說非常滿意。 大力推薦,我們這次是4人房,空間足夠。床很軟要適應一下。

Good Deal
Very close to historical main street (5 mins by walking). Hotel offers local map and suggests point of interest. The room is clean enough and comfortable. 走路5分鐘就可到九份老街, 櫃檯還會說明知名景點跟省力有效的老街逛法. 下午6點到隔天11點有合作的免費停車場. 房間乾淨衛生,早餐可接受. 總體而言是個good deal.

安排停車位、特別去買的好吃中式早餐、冷暖氣,住宿點離老街或基隆山都很近,無論要逛或是健走行程都很方便 小巷中的住宿點,須走一小小段的階梯
