Cheng Pao Hotel — Hotel in Puli Township

How do I start to review this hotel....the room we had was great, quite large, big king size bed..very comfy and good pillows. Chairs and table, all amenities and shower room was good. When sitting down at our table enjoying a glass of wine (purchased at the Carrefour store 2.2klm from hotel, we walked) we noticed there was about a 2 inch gap under our door, you hear everyone talking as they walked by and I even went out at one stage and asked a family to be quiet! I had read the previous reviews about western breakfast so we did buy in some goodies from the Carrefour store and glad we did as the breakfast was terrible, virtually no western options except for some white bread to toast but then there were no knives to spread jam etc with but we had read this before and had our own knife. Managed to toast some bread and topped it with things we had bought at Carrefour. Though it seems you are in the middle of nowhere there are actually some nice places not too far away, fruit shops where we bought some delicious mango and a seafood restaurant just across the road which had cold beers and great food! I would chose to stay here again but don't rely on getting a good...

This is a terrible hotel that is well past its prime. Perhaps at one point it was a great hotel but it looks like a good 30 years of doing the absolute bare minimum to keep the thing running as resulted in a worn down and pathetic excuse for a hotel. Every item you come across will show it's age and wear. The TVs are good 20 years old. The towels feel about the same they're ratty and thin. The room we moved into stunk of urine and had not been particularly cleaned well. The sheets don't look like they've had a good cleaning in a long time there are oil stains in them. The included breakfast was the cheapest slop they could find to put into a food warmer.

I guess once a hotel drops down to the level of hosting tour groups they have to stop caring about quality. I counted no less than 12 tour buses come and go during the...
