I like the space and room plan. I would have rated this a five star if not for the the cost of WIFI. You have to pay for the use of WIFI. Although a little bit dated, the room was clean and towels were provided every day.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Wifi was not available. This was surprising and out of expectation. We needed to purchase additional e-SIM from online supplier after arriving urgently. Another point was drainage of kitchen was terrible. Water didn’t flow and smelly water accumulated in the sink. Another issue was the flushing of toilet was not good. I believe Wifi unavailability is a breach of contract, I would like to request to compensate e-SIM cost.

The hotel is old fashioned and service is very average. Normally in Korea the service level standards are higher. So compared to other hotels that I stayed during my trip this hotel is average and the breakfast was not good at all. The hotel need a new look from inside as there is some haunted feeling 😀
