The hotel's location is quite inconvenient so if you do not own a car, it might be not ideal accommodation. Also, maybe due to the season, there were not much restaurants and stores open. I tried to visit the Megabox movie theatre and it was dead quiet. Accommodation is quiet and clean. Very warm. I do not recommend breakfast though. Not much options

호텔이 아주 깔끔하며 .아늑하고 서비스도 훌륭했습니다. 아침식사도 뷔페로 아주 잘 나왔구요. 호텔가격도 비싸지 않았는데 이 가격에 이만한 호텔은 없을듯합니다

가성비 최고의 숙소

친구들과 여행중 생각보단 훨씬 괜찮은 숙소를 만나 너무 좋았습니다 밝고 깨끗하고 화장실과 욕실이 분리되어있어 편리했습니다 침구류도 깨끗하고 포근하게 잘 잘수 있었습니다 직원들의 서비스도 최고였습니다

청결, 조식 모두 완벽해요.

작은 호텔인데 엘리베이터가 2대이며 복도 폭이 넓어 답답하지 않음. 객실은 아주 청결하고 스타일러, TV, 에어컨등이 잘 작동되고 조명이 다양하고 밝았음. 무엇보다도 아침 조식이 가성비 대비 최고였음.

생각보다 호텔자체는 규모가 작아서 처음엔 별로라고 생각했는데..깨끗하고 (방내부가 정말 깨끗했어요.구석구석 먼지하나 없더라구요)친절한 직원의 서비스로 마음이 편안해져서 잘쉬다왔습니다. 아들 군입대로 잠시 머문곳이었기에 더 괜찮았던것같습니다.로비데스크의 친절한 서비스로 방도 업그레이드 시켜주셔서 감사했습니다.다음에도 이용하고 싶습니다.
