Nice location guesthouse

The location is at its best to access old street and uber taxi knows it well as we caught uber many times during our 3 night stays. Accommodation is quite basic with small room, no view from our window, no turndown/cleaning service during our stay. Everything is clean and hygienic. If we have issues, you can chat with the manager in whatsapp, and they will attend pretty much straight away, eg. when our tv or ac not working, they attended rightaway. Breakfast is pretty basic but the stirfry was delicious and tasty. Their butter filled bread roll is so soft, melt in your mouth. Not much to do, i would stay 2 night max in jiufen.

This place was great! Super clean and convenient to the main road. They also had free breakfast! I think the only suggestion I had was to maybe mark the breakfast items for vegetarians. The front desk did explain to me which ones were okay to eat but my Chinese isn’t the best. But everything else was great!

Small and smelly room

There are 5 to 6 rooms in the B&B, I found out later that I have booked the worst room, which is located on the ground floor with a very blocked view, no ocean view at all. The room is extremely small and has the smell of the water sewage when we enter, but the rate is very high comparing to the other B&B nearby in the same location. The view of the breakfast and relaxing are is very good though. The location is conveniently above the main old street. To be fair, I think the other rooms are much better so this comment only applies to the smallest room

The Ocean Theory is a small hotel located at the top of Jiufen old street, overlooking the mountains of Jiufen. The hotel is cozy and stylish. It has an impressive gathering spot on the 2nd and 3rd floors - a nice end to a long day walking up & down the steps of Jiufen.

This was a great B&B stay that’s only a 2 min walk from old street. The staff was communicative and everything was ready on time. Our drivers had a slightly difficult time reaching the property, so be prepared to walk 5-10 minutes with your bags (although I think that’s standard for any place in Jiufen).

The room is OK, the seaview was partial and interrupted by some ugly buildings. No fridge in the room, the AC unit in the room was extremely noisy and old. Primitive breakfast (a toast with bits of egg and tuna, and cold sweet tea - they should ask about guests preferences). All public facilities are closed. The front desk girl was not parricularly interested in welcoming guests and didn't bother greeting us when we cam back. Insulation's is poor - you easily hear your neighbors in the shower.
