great design, very well maintained and new... amazingly clean”

well located from the Shuishe pier / the main bus station area in Sun-moon Lake. This is probably one of the most clean and well-maintained B&B / hotels ever stayed. The design is contemporary and looks refreshingly new. The room we stayed has a ship shaped bed, pretty interesting and the room is very spacious. The host is very friendly and helpful. The host makes very delicious healthy breakfast (it's not typical continental breakfast you find elsewhere, or buffet style sorta boring breakfast). Normally we'd keep feedback brief and simple, but this time, we really wanted to express our pleasant experience staying there. Glad previous customers left good and honest reviews, so that helped us to make the right decision. If you stay there, you will know what we are talking about; and this isn't advertising ;). We recommend 5Boat to everyone. Cheers

Very clean, excellent value, great host”

Highly recommend this hotel for families and people seeking a quiet stay. Very clean rooms, nice common area with filter drinking water, tea, microwave that is accessible 24/7. The owner was very helpful in givingbus suggestions for activities and places to visit. He even gave us free bike rental vouchers. The hotel is located near very nice bike paths, including the ones that go over water as seen in many brochures for Sun Moon Lake. There's only 2 things that may make this hotel not good for some some travelers: 1) the hotel is floors but there are no elevators; 2) the doors are not soundproof so other guests may hear you if you are loud and vice versa. Normal noise levels do not create any problems though. Overall, a very good place to stay in Sun Moon Lake, especially for people with kids who like the room decorations in the photos.

Parents' and childrens' haven!”

Our hired driver found the place without much ado since it was near Shuishe Pier. The fun and quirky décor inside the B&B made us feel right at home. Each room was differently themed and thoughtfully decorated. Our kids absolutely loved our Lego-themed room with platform beds and lego toys plus reading corner included! Though our arrival was quite late in the night, the host and hostess were very welcoming and friendly, and even helped us carry our bags up the one flight of stairs. Breakfast was a tie-up with a nearby Mos Burger and there was something for everyone for the breakfast vouchers provided. Do remember to explore the nearby temple with beautiful carvings and also offered a great view of Sun Moon Lake.

Although it's a bit of a walk from the port where you take the boat, the Bnb is close to a very beautiful temple with a nice view.
