Very conveniently located close to both bus stations. Use Navar Maps for an easy walk into town and to historical locations. Quiet location. Comfortable bedding. Breakfast was perfect. Breakfast is served in the lobby (first floor) from 8am - 10am. Laundry facilities on first floor are really good. Our room had a wet room style bathroom.

Great deal. Room was very clean. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothbrushes, toothpaste, hair dryer, towels, soap, bottled water, and slippers provided. Soundproofing of the room was good and bed was not too hard. Only two pillows provided. Free WiFi worked great. The TV has movies but I think you need to pay for them. Free breakfast was served 8-10am. It was delicious with fruit, bread, yogurt, cereal, eggs, coffee, milk, juice, etc. Staff was friendly but didn’t speak English well. However, they gave us a paper with all the necessary info about the hotel in English. They let us store our luggage in the lobby during the morning as we arrived before check-in time. Location was very convenient as it was within walking distance to the express bus terminal, many restaurants and cafes, and a few of the historical sites. Overall, this was the best budget-friendly hotel that I’ve stayed at in Korea during two years. Highly recommend!

Room cleanliness was suspect; there were remains from a bug killed on the wall and numerous stains. AC unit wouldn’t turn off after starting. Only one small pillow, and two small towels which were not enough.

Stayed a comfortable 2 nights. Room was very clean and the lady at the front desk was friendly. They provided towels and water each day. The only downside for me is the brightness of the lights on the control panel on the wall. I couldn’t figure out a way to cover it for complete darkness at bedtime. On the plus side, it was very quiet.

Good experince staying here. Hotel is in good condition and the free selfcooked breakfast is a plus. The admin lady gets a bit mad when you do scramble eggs instead of fried eggs, not sure why. Close to historical places by walk.
