Comfortable stay

Very comfortable and reasonably priced hotel. Room was very spacious with big bathroom. I was able to use the hotel laundry at no cost which was much appreciated. Hotel also stored my luggage for a day in between stays. The hotel is not central in the city but I was easily about to reach the centre by taxi. The breakfast was v good value and staff in the restaurant were attentive and kind.

It’s by a lot of older motels but stands alone by the main road. It was nice there’s a convenience store on the same block! I would stay a night again if seeing baseball in gwangju.

Oasis in Gwangju

The staff were very kind and spoke good English. The rooftop pool was a lot of fun. It was also very clean for an outdoor pool. Breakfast was good, but there is not a lot of choice - you choose Korean or Western style, and then you are served your food.

Our room had the biggest TV I have ever seen in a hotel room. A great five night stay. Only downside was the room did not have a safety deposit box so we had to carry passports and money everywhere.

수영장이 있다하여 선택했는데 야외 물놀이장 수준으로 탈의실, 샤워실 등 지원시설이 없어 결국 이용 포기했어요. 참 별도 비용 치러야하구요. 오전엔 사용불가이고요.
