This hotel is mostly for local Taiwan residents or visitors from the mainland, but that's great, if you are patient in dealing with the language barrier. The staff was really great ... extremely patient and always ready to help. The surrounding area is mostly indigenous Taiwanese, but this is not an area with many Western tourists. We didn't see any. The local Bunon people are great and the area is amazingly beautiful. Recommend the hike to Rainbow Falls, but be advised it is very, very steep. The trail is wide and well-surfaced, but can be aerobically challenging. The only problems with the room is that there is no shower, only a tub, and there were some exposed wires in the bedroom. It's safe for adults, but I wouldn't want children to pull them. Did not seem to be a fire hazard, but likely doesn't meet the electrical code. The hotel has a downstairs \"spa\" with water piped in from the Dong-Pu hot springs, like most of the other nearby hotels, but I did not see the spa so don't know what the conditions were.
