Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
I like the space and room plan. I would have rated this a five star if not for the the cost of WIFI. You have to pay for the use of WIFI.
Although a little bit dated, the room was clean and towels were provided every day.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This hotel has had the majority of facilities closed since 2023. Hard to believe its still 'under renovation' after all this time. Buffet breakfast also very average.
All good except for two
1. Swiming pool hours start at 11am: 11am is time to check out. Most other hotels start at 6 or 7am.
2. Breakfast: items were rather limited both for Korean and Western. For the quality of the hotel, the guests would expect matching breakfast quality.
