Great stay! Staff were fantastic, friendly and patient with our lack of spoken Korean. Two bed room was good size for traditional hotel in Korea. Clean, nice housekeeping, and hearty breakfast. Close walk to one 5.18 location, shopping, restaurant and Starbucks. We would stay here again. For the price per night, this was a great booking for family of four for four nights. Highly recommend.

We really have to be on 4pm check in time😅 Usually, soon as they clean the room, staff offers early check in. This place watch out😅 They ask for 10000won every hour. Free real Korean breakfast like home.!!!

Second stay at this hotel. Big clean rooms, comfortable beds and very affordable. My only complaint is the late check in time and breakfast for foreigners is just toast and jam. To be fair the korean guests seemed to have enjoyed theirs though. My only suggestion for improvement would be for each bathroom to have a squeegee so that the water can be removed from the bathroom floor after showering

최근 업뎃된 화장실이 크고 넓었으면 각종 티빙 카카오 티비 등등의 채널이 들어와 비오는 날 호텔에서 즐겁게 보낼수 있었고 스타일러 덕분에 비에 젖은 옷들을 다음날 뽀송뽀송하게 입을 수 있어 좋았습니다. 각종 충전기 선들도 디테일있게 준비해 두셔서 충전기 깜빡하기 쉬운데 요런 디테일 정말 좋습니다. 침대도 넓어 편해요 드라이기 고데기가 비치되어 있어 스타일링 하기 정말 편했어요 주변 식당 백화점 그리고 전일빌딩 근처라 도보로 이동 가능해 위치도 좋았습니다. 아침식사는 가정식으로 주시는데 요즘 보기드문 아침식사로 하루 시작을 기분좋게 할수 있었습니다.사장님의 꼼꼼한 배려로 가족들 안전하고 편안하게 잘 머물다 갑니다. 감사합니다
