    +No power outlets on the counter/table +A little hard to get to without a car, but at least it's pretty close to a bus stop

    +Great view right outside the room +Dinner prepared by the host was really good, there were local dishes made using local ingredients (NTD500 per person) +The host organizes firefly viewing trips together with nearby BNBs (NTD200 per person), where they provide transport to and fro a protected firefly area. Highly recommend participating because there's really nothing else to do in the area.

    No, sunrise is not exactly beautifully seen as sunset😁

    Fiona cooks an excellent dinner. Breakfast may look limited, but can ask for seconds. Location is close to the bus stop on the way to Fenchihu. Sunset from a nearby pavilion is stunning.

    We didn't know there was a bus stop just outside the B&B. This bus stop is unmarked on maps and only known to locals. So we dropped off in town and climbed the very steep hill with our luggages to check in.

    Breakfast was delicious. The place is near some of the quieter trails and made for very good morning walks. The place overlooks tea plantations and is quiet restful. The sunset was gorgeous as the place is high enough to be able to see the sea of clouds in the evening. Host went out of the way to drop us off in town for lunch, and gave excellent directions to trails and to take the bus back to Chiayi.

    Bath room could use an update. Adjacent Tea factory jumble up the otherwise facility's neat entrance.

    Decent B&B close to Alishan Forrest, Fengihu, and Shizhao's various trails. Decent clean room. Very healthy breakfast cooked by the receptionist, with vegetables picked from the garden next to the facility. Close to the 169 observatory (walk up the ram) where you can view the beautiful sunset. Very close to 中興製茶所 李健誠 初晨 CHU CHEN handmade tea where we viewed the spectacular cherry blossoms (end of Feb).

    We loved our stay at SunRise 23.5N! The location is perfect- close to nearby hiking trails and Alishan National Park and within easy walking distance to local eateries. The breakfast at the hotel was lovely and we paid for the dinner one night as well and loved it! The surroundings are so peaceful and the staff was super friendly. We wish we could have stayed longer!

    The dinner in our opinion was a bit pricey per person compared to what you could get if you went down to the town center down the hill. But for convenience, it makes sense! However you may not know what you're eating until you arrive. Note if you don't have a car, the walk to the town center is downhill and can be dangerous at night with cars passing by and fog covering the mountains from time to time. Be careful and maybe stop by 711 on the way in to make sure you have snacks/beverages.

    Everything was wonderful! This spot was an amazing alternative to staying in the Alishan center or Fenqihu center. We were looking for a smaller, quieter spot to stay in to end our trip, and this was exactly that. The town center is about a 2-3 minute drive downhill and is lovely, with many nice restaurants to stop by (and a shabu shabu spot down the road!). Alishan forest was about a 45 minute car ride from the hotel which was perfect for a day trip for us. Fenqihu was only a 10-15 minute drive which was incredible, too. We stopped by there to hike a bamboo forest, get a bento box, and wander around for an hour (it's really small, you need no more than 2-3 hours max here). The sunrise here is also wonderful. We got up every morning and watched it rise over the mountains and looked down at the tea plantation below. If you walk to the bus station, you can get to the stairway that leads down into the tea garden. Super cool and picturesque. I will say, if you DO NOT have a car, this may not be the best option for you if you're not comfortable/confident using taxis/buses. But if you do have a car, this spot could not be any better. We had our own parking spot too. We rented a car through Hertz from Tainan and ended our rental in Taipei at the airport. If you're worried about driving here as an American, it's really not that bad, just be sure to get an intl drivers license!! The staff were extremely kind and welcoming. Breakfast was delicious. The room was spacious and comfortable and looked like the photos. Cable TV to watch which was nice, as there isn't much to do in the town after the sun sets, especially if you don't have a car.

    It was the best stay out of our taiwan travels! The location was great, close enough to Shizhuo (tea plantations and local trails), and also just a 10-minute bus ride to Fenqihu. Even Alishan is just a 40-minute bus ride away. The hostess, Qiuhua, was excellent. She was very helpful and gave us all the information we needed to get to places. Without her help, we would not have gotten to and from places like Fenqihu and Alishan via public transport. She was also a great help with giving us local tips. We enjoyed the meals she made! She's made our stay very memorable. Highly recommend SunRise 23.5N B&B.

    Hot water shower lasts about 10 minutes... next person just needs to wait for 10 minutes for the water to boil again 😄.

    Perfect location for hiking around Shizhuo. A short walk down to the bus stop to get to Fenqihu and Alishan. Great spot to see the infamous 雲海. Free shuttle from Shizhuo bus stop to the accommodation. Host is really friendly and capable. Preps all the meals for all guests.

    The location of the property was spectacular - beautiful views! The breakfast and dinner were scrumptious and nutritious- quality ingredients! The room was clean and spacious! Easy access to hike all the Shizhuo trails and a quick bus trip up the mountain to Fenquihu. The accomodation owners/management were most welcoming, hospitable and friendly! We had a great stay and highly recommend if you’re looking for a personable/genuine Shizhuo experience!
