Clean, friendly staff, nice room! I had a great experience at the hotel. The staff gave me a free room upgrade and allowed a late checkout at no additional charge. The breakfast included with the room is simple, but gets the job done.

Room was clean, bathroom was a decent size which was a nice surprise. The tourist locations are around a 25min walk from here, though not much around the actual hotel. There wasn’t any help provided on check in. Desk was mostly unmanned which wasn’t ideal, we were lucky to find her to check in. Towels were not provided which made showering interesting. The TV was frozen on a blurred login page to an adult channel and you could not navigate away.

The property is not in the town centre. It is tucked away behind a market in a small street so it could be difficult to find. The building inside is very clean though. Room are basic with individual air conditioner. Beds are small and a bit hard with is expected. Some rooms have futons. Bathroom is clean. We arrived early and nobody at front desk. Have to call the hotel lady was on 1/F but she came down and told us check in at 4pm. We asked to store our luggage and she took us to our room so we can check in early which is vey nice. Other than that we don't see anybody for the whole stay which is fine. We leave the keys on the front desk while check out. There is a communal dining area with water machine and two computers. We did not use the facilities so doesn't know what else is available. If you are going to Bulguksa and Seokguram the bus stop is just across on the Main Street but the bus will be full when it gets there. Overall it is a good experience.

Just what we wanted

The room was clean with basic amenities. Air conditioning was in the room but the remote wasn’t. When we asked about it, the answer was it wasn’t the warm season so AC wasn’t available. We had to open the window at night and there was a little outside noise. I liked that we had access to a microwave in a communal kitchen area. The location was not as close to the tourists sights as I would have liked.

Hotel medio

Hotel standard, pulito e sufficientemente confortevole. Ottima la possibilità di parcheggiare. Avremmo messo 4 stelle se non fosse stato per la spiacevole sorpresa della colazione: per quanto abbondante, abbiamo appreso solo in quel momento che avremmo dovuto pulirci i piatti da soli. A ciò si aggiunga la camera: non conosco le leggi Sudcoreane in merito alle distanze minime fra gli edifici, ma la nostra camera affacciava letteralmente su di un muro a circa 50 cm dalla finestra.
