Penghu Banff B B

A lovely place for a relaxing break, with spacious, clean rooms. The only thing that let it down was the shower pressure, which was weak. Everything else was perfect ❤️.

Stepping into the penthouse duplex was a real wow moment. It’s very spacious, with huge windows along three sides and amazing views of the sea and sunsets. There are bathrooms on both floors, each with large floor-to-ceiling windows. A big private terrace is outside, though I couldn’t use it because it rained. I really liked the place and felt it was worth it.

The housekeeper was so friendly, and after two days there I found the place clean and comfortable. Good value, and the breakfast was delicious. There’s a balcony too, handy for smokers.

The owners were really accommodating. Our group arrived before check-in to change, and they still let us freshen up and rest in the lobby before heading out. We had a very comfortable stay, and I recommend it. The place is in the suburbs of Magong City, about a ten-minute bike ride or five-minute walk from the busy center and its shops. A convenience store is around five minutes away. The overall surroundings were great, with four parking spots. Downstairs, the lobby has a big dining table for meals and chatting, plus coffee and tea bags. There’s an elevator, so third-floor guests and older people don't have to haul bags upstairs. A mahjong table is available. There also seems to be karaoke somewhere else, but we didn't have time to try it. We booked the whole building, so they bought breakfast from a popular nearby restaurant for our group, probably because there were so many of us. I believe guests booking individual rooms get buffet breakfast. The rooms are fairly large, and some have bathtubs. We picked one without a tub, but it did have a large balcony. The bed was comfy and the air conditioning very cool. Ours did make a steady knocking noise, though we were tired enough from our activities that it didn't bother me much. The bathroom was spacious, with shampoo, shower gel, and towels in different sizes. The water got hot, but the pressure was a little weak, which was a letdown. There was a full glass wall with electric blinds, and having to operate them every time we showered or used the toilet was inconvenient. There was no washing machine or spin dryer. Lots of people probably swim in Penghu, and washing seawater-soaked clothes means hand washing or using a self-service laundry. If there's room, I’d suggest putting at least one spin dryer in the common area.
