Hot, but pool closed when we wanted to have a swim.
Pros:

Nice, spacious room. Friendly staff: welcomed us with real fruit juice. Nice breakfast: we could add as much as we could eat. Cold and hot water available from a shared area dispenser. Hotel geared for family holidays: lots of kids’ activities: pool, train, playground areas. Aircon, kettle, nice shower.

Cons:

Staff didn’t understand English (but we managed to get by). Although this hotel offers a free lantern for its guests, there was no-one available to release it on the evening of our arrival; we didn’t have the time in the morning to release our lantern. Very steep incline from the road to the hotel to get to our room on foot. Swimming pool was packed during accessible time; swimming pool not available in late afternoon or in the morning, when it would have been very nice to have a swim.

地點不錯，離十分瀑布及老街走路10來分到，住宿有送天燈，可慢慢寫，不像老街像趕集一樣匆忙放天燈

Cons:

可能受限人力，早餐樣式較少

Sweet Shifen Stay
Pros:

I liked the staff very much... very friendly and kind people. They helped me practice my Mandarin. They also provided great recommendations of things to do in the area. Because I was not keen on littering the area by launching a sky lantern (included with the room), they offered little token lanterns as souvenir... cute and a nice gesture.
I also liked the view from my room.
They offer free shuttle ride from the old street... I recommend you take advantage of this by calling them in advance because the hotel is a good 15-minute walk from the train station, and not easy to find with luggage. Also, do not lookup their street address on Google Maps, it's misleading.

Cons:

They asked to pay cash for the room, which surprised me quite a bit, I managed to do a transfer from my Taiwanese bank. Not sure how everybody else would do carrying buckets of TWD like this in our day and age.
Also, while the room was spacious, it was a bit bare... it could have been better appointed with more furniture and decoration.
Again, watch out with their street address on Google Maps... it's not as close to the train station as it may appear.

Pros:

老闆人很好，住宿還有贈送天燈，旁邊還可以觀賞螢火蟲。
東西不小心遺留在民宿，老闆立馬聯絡，得知不方便回去時還貼心幫忙郵寄，太感恩了～

Cons:

枕頭不夠支撐力，棉被有點厚重，有點小遺憾。
