상무모텔 엉망입니다

이 숙박입소는 다른분들이 이용하시면 안될듯합니다 청결문제는 엉망이고 금연이라고 했는데도 엄청 남배냄새가 나고 주인의 불친절함에도 큰 문제가 있었습니다 함께 출장을간 다른분이 같이 있는데도 청결함 냄새문제 4명이 잘 수 있다는데 너무나 좁다고 예기하니까 3만원밖에 안받았는데 그냥 자라는식의 예기에 어안이 없었습니다 정말 엉망입니다

Respectful owner

The owner is very hard working and kind. The building is an older condition that I didn't expect but I only stayed one night so it is okay. It is a central location and close to the subway station. 1 error on hotels.com was the check in time says 1pm but it is actually later.

조용하고, 청결하며 특히 굉장히 친절하여 기분이 좋았다. 다만, 바닥에 냉기가 있고 침대에 두껍지 않은 이불 하나만 있어서 따뜻한 밤이 되지는 못한 아쉬움이 있다.

다시는 갈만한 숙소가 못됩니다

정말 비추하는 숙소입니다. 이럴 줄 알았다면 숙소를 선택하지 않았을 텐데 후회가 됩니다. 난방이 제대로 되지 않아서 추위에 떨고, 심지어 온수마저도 제대로 나오지 않았습니다.어느 누가 이 숙소를 추천할지 의문이 들어요. 다시는 가고 싶지 않습니다

가성비로 나름 깔끔하고 좋다고 생각합니다.

저는 따뜻한 물만 나오면 되는 사람이라서요.., 가격이 싸기 때문에, 비교적 만족입니다. 다만, 제가 방문했을 때가 최저 영하4도, 최고5도인 날이었는데요, 바닥 난방은 전혀 안되더라구요.. 전기장판은 있어서, 전기장판에 의존해서 잤습니다. 같이 간 지인은 계속 깼다고는 하더라구요.. 추워서 ;;

Economic choice. Cannot say comfortable

省钱的选择。优点一是非常便宜，优点二是距离光州唯一一条地铁线的云泉地铁站非常近。还有浴缸可使用。 老板是一位不会说哪怕一个单词英语的老人。因此确认入住订单需要费一番力气。屋门是简单的钥匙而不是房卡。房间内有一点点味道，床也比较硬。最无法忍受的，是居然不能开空调。入住的时候还能用，到了半夜回房间后就不能开空调了。跟老板比划遥控器无法使用，老板指了指屋内的电风扇并试图打开它。有点无语。 Economic choice.Price is cheap, and near the Uncheon subway station(only 100m away). Bathtub is available. The manager cannot speak even a English word. So it's difficult to communicate when check-in. The door locked with key, no room card. The room has a bit smell and bed is so hard. The most unbearable thing is that the air conditioner cannot be used. The manager let me use electric fan and try to help me open it. It's annoyed.

I took a chance upon arriving early in the city, hoping I’d be able to at least leave my bags here before beckon but the host was very gracious and through Google Translate we understood each other and he kindly let me have a room early! The room itself was large with a spacious bathroom and wonderful selection of amenities- including a hot a cold water dispenser, fridge and even a computer! Simple accommodation ideal for a few days in the city. Would stay again.

Чистота в номере и мотеле оставляет желать лучшего. В номере расчески с остатками чужих волос. Шампуни, гели, зубная паста в огромных, уже начатых пузырьках. В коридорах, холле и лифте кондиционеры не работают, жуткая духота. Оставлять кондиционер в номере включенным, когда уходишь - нельзя. Возвращаясь в номер, больше часа приходится ждать, пока температура придет в норму. Вода в кулер, судя по всему наливается из-под крана, так как бутылки не запечатаны, а лишь прикрыты бумажными стаканчиками. Расположение мотеля удобное, находится на маленькой тихой улице, параллельно идет широкая магистраль. Рядом станция метро.

Not so good stay

Owner does not speak English and was very rude when we forgot to turn off the AC in the room. Got really upset and cut off the power to our AC. The room needs lots of renovations. The bathroom sink is leaking (water all over the floor) and the room has a bad smell. The building was not very well isolated and thus we kept hearing other people, doors closing, etc. We did not had a very restful sleep. Overall quite disappointed.

Wouldn't recommend it to anyone!

Took me over an hour - and a phone call from my friends korean girlfriend - to check. They apparently had some problems with their reservation system and the receptionist couldn't speak a single word of english. When i finally got the room the bed was hard as a rock. The place is cheap but i wouldn't recommend it to anyone!

とても愛想の良いフロント

今回は世界水泳大会を観るために2泊しました。会場からも近く交通の便も良かったです。ただ、あまり近くに食事が出来る所が無く、コンビニも品薄で困りました。フロントの方がたいそう愛想がよく親切でしたが、部屋がフロントの前で夜中に来るお客にも大声で接していたので良く眠れませんでした。
