The most enjoyable BnB we’ve ever stayed in!”
Doris Home is definitely the most professionally run BnB we have stayed. The facilities, appliances and interior design are all top-notch. There were so many things, big or small, that tell the tastefulness of the owner and the thoughtfulness of the staff. Amongst all the things that made us decide to extend our stay by one more night, my 18 months old daughter was so happy befriending the cats and was totally thrilled to discover all the (cat-related) details the owner has carefully crafted for the comfort of the cats and the amusement of the guests. W
e will definitely return!

Lovely Place with great location and friendly host!”
This could be one of the best places i've stayed for my Taiwan trip. Location was not too far from bus stop, maybe 6 mins walk.
Overall - Doris Home is quaint and quiet. The host was friendly and gave us a few quick tips of where to eat and walk for sight seeing.
There's a total of 05 cute cats always hanging around the lobby area.
Breakfast was prepared freshly in the morning, and it's almost like having breakfast at the comfort of your home!
Room was very clean and spacious! Regret didn't stay for another day!
They were also very kind to allow us to check out a little later (maybe 30 mins) as we set off late in the morning for the cycling track.
Visit Sun Moon lake and see their sunset, it's beautiful!
