In Taiwan the government worries that to obtain tax reductions and other advantages some people pretending to run a guesthouse are actually running a hotel, and that unfair competitive practices are spreading to the unspoiled countryside. The guesthouse regulations therefore lay down a series of sanitation, fire prevention, and public safety norms and, most importantly, set strict limits on the size of guesthouses.
再看看台灣，為了怕業者假民宿之名，行開旅館之實，一面享受各種稅賦減免和政策優惠，一面卻把商業競爭的惡質手法帶入淳樸鄉野，因此「民宿管理辦法」中，除了對民宿的衛生、消防、公共安全等條件加以規定外，最重要的，首推對民宿規模的嚴格限制。
