Sunrise was the best ever view. Staffs were very neat and room was so spacious and cleaned. I definitely come back this place with my family again. The restaurant’s food was decent. Korean chicken tasted better than I thought. Thumbs up!

The hotel was advertised as providing access to Gyeongju, which it does if you don’t mind travelling 30mins each way. For that matter, it has few shops or restaurants near it at all. Even the hotel restaurant was closed the night we arrived. The flat itself was unexceptional, but it had no drinkable water (the staff, who were very polite, told us we needed to buy bottled water from the shop at the hotel). This was unacceptable to us and, given the inconvenient location, we cut our visit short.

관리요함

침대커버와 이불요에 얼룩이 있고, 욕실바닥에 머리카락 뭉치가 굴러다녔어요. 수건냄새가 별로 였어요. 시설청결에 신경써주시면 좋겠어요.

가족이 모여서 함께 지내기엔 공간이 넓어서 좋았어요~산꼭대기^^라 한적하고 조용해서 쉬는공간으로는 딱좋아요 시설이 오래되다보니 내부가 보기 좀 불편하고(문틀 시트지? 다 일어나있고 거실창 고장처럼 삐거덕💦) 특히 청소는 많이 부족했답니다.(곳곳에 과자, 창틀 벌레, 먼지가득, 화장실변기뒤 곰팡이 가득ᆢ) 퇴실하면서 보니 프런트 로비1층 화장실 변기가 막혀있었어요~ 전체적으로 원활하게 관리가 되는것같지는 않아서 아쉽네요ᆢ
