This hotel is in a great location. I was able to walk to the Uncheon Reservoir to see the Cherry Blossoms and find some great places to eat. The Gwangju National Museum is only a 15 min. Taxi ride away. The room has a steam cleaning machine to press or refresh your clothes! The only thing that was wrong with the room is the mattress is SUPER hard. I actually ended up sleeping on the couch in the room as it was much more comfortable. I only wish the mattress was softer and the stay would have been perfect.

오래된듯한 시설이 조금 실망이었습니다. 욕실변기는 안맞아서 끄덕끄덕 움직이는건 그나마 이해할려면 이해할 수 있어요. 근데 세면대가 막혀서 물이 전혀 내려가지 않았어요. 씻다가 당황했네요. 시설관리에 더 신경쓰셔야겠습니다

객실관리를 전혀 하지 않아 불쾌 했습니다 욕실에는 머리카락이 보였고 수건도 얼룩덜룩 세탁이 제대로 안되어 있었고 뚜껑이 깨진 전기포트, 화장문은 부서진 채로 방치되어 있었으며 또한 숙소사진과 많이 다른 모습에 실망했습니다 간식을 먹을 테이블도 없었고 욕실앞 거울 선반도 없었고 간이로 테이블이 놓아 있었습니다 데스크 직원도 불친절했습니다 다시는 가고 싶지 않아요

객실은 무난 했습니다. 연식이 좀 된 곳이라 그런것 같았고 청결도는 최상은 아니었지만 크게 문제는 없었습니다. 하지만 직원분의 친절로 인해 모든 단점이 사라지는 곳이었습니다. 강력히 추천합니다.

가격 대비 무척 훌륭했습니다. 주변에 음식점과 식당 커피숍 편의점이 많아 편리합니다. 걸어갈 거리에 비하철역도 있고요. 실내에서는 실외 소름이나 옆방 소음은 들리지 않습니다. 넓은 객실, 욕실, 시설도 좋고요. 1층 로비와 밖에 앉을 수 있는 자리도 괜찮습니다. 로비 근무중인 직원도 친절했습니다.
