The hotel is right by the subway station, and bus stop (including an airport limousine pick up stop). The room was clean and the bath was amazing. The concept of a cave is quite fun! The only downsides were that the fridge in the room was not cold at all and the soundproofing could definitely be improved. The area around the hotel has a market, restaurants and shops, and its easy to go to more 'touristy' areas quickly.

욕실, 침구는 깔끔해서 좋았는데 그 외의 것들이 다 아쉬웠습니다 에어컨은 안켜지고, 드라이기도 노후됐고, 흰색스툴 의자에 라면국물자국이 묻어져있더라구요 조금만 더 섬세하게 관리해주시면 좋을것같아요
