침구는 좋은데 저는 좀..ㅠㅠ

침구 컨디션이 괜찮다고해서 그것만보고 예약했어요(비지니스 여러곳 다녀봤지만 침구상태만 차이가 있을뿐 조식이나 그외것들은 다 비슷했었거든요) 근데, 침구는 컨디션 괜찮은데 그외는 별로였어요;; 방바닥도 청결하지않고 테라스있는 방이였으나 여기도 바닥 지저분하고 커텐에 얼룩이나 자국도 많고 샤워기 수압 그렇게 약한곳도 처음; 전체적인지는 모르겠으나... 조식은...밥 없는 조식 첨 봤어요; 컵라면 빵 우유... 다음에 이용하진않을것같아요 아 번화가 접근성과 로비는 되게 좋아요

가성비 좋은 호텔

후기를 보고 안좋을까봐 걱정했는데 가성비 좋은 호텔. 아침도 간단하게 먹을 수 있는 메뉴와 장소가 있어서 좋았음. 단점은 다른 호텔에 비해 번화가가 조금 떨어진 거 정도?

숙소의 청결상태나 침대는 좋았습니다 하지만 조식이 너무 부실해서 차라리 조식제공을 하지않는다고 하고나서 이정도로 제공해주셨다면 좋았을것 같다. 객실 청소시 고객의 소지품을 분실되었다

조식제공이었는데 남아 있던것은 빵 2개와 컵라면이었고 프론트에 아무도 없어 문의하지도 못하였습니다. 거창한 식사를 기대한 것은 아니었지만 매우 실망스러웠습니다.

A very nice and clean hotel. Comfortable stay and quiet location with many eateries beside. The breakfast was the same throughout the 7 nights stay with only bread, cornflakes and instant noodle available. Overall if you are looking for a place to stay here, this hotel is highly recommended.
