訂購顯示是1500呎，但實際可能得400-500呎。 整潔度滿意，交通亦很方便。職員回覆也很快。 浴室欠決掛衫位、有點不便。 地理位置亦很近商圈，鄰近亦有很多食肆

あまり気にしない方なら良いと思います。

着いてすぐにチェックインの連絡を入れたところ掃除が終わっていないという理由で、一時間待ってください、他の部屋が使えるのでそこで休んでてください、と言われました。 仕方なく言われた部屋で休みましたが知らない方の荷物が置いてあり、とても気になって休めませんでした。 海外旅行で、知らない土地でしたのでホテルで気が休まらないのはとても残念でした。 部屋は広くて家具や家電、雑貨も良かった。 観光地や、飲食店へもアクセスが良かったので、スタッフの対応の悪さだけが残念でした。 出掛けてホテルへ戻ると部屋のドアが開いていたこともありました。 スタッフさんはもう少し頑張ってもらいたいです。

最悪でした

このホテルはかなり問題です。ホテルに到着した時、入口にロックがかかっていて、インターホンもなく、LINEのIDなどがドアに書かれていたから電話しても出なく、途方に暮れていたらたまたま中から出てきた人がいて、事情を聞いたら、その方々も滞在中に1度もスタッフが来なく、ロックナンバーだけLINEしてきて、全て自分達でやらなければならなかったようです。 部屋に入ると又2部屋に分かれていて、片方には別の人達が居たらしく、なのに共有でトイレシャワーを使わないといけなく、部屋はベッド以外はなんとか通れる程で、スーツケースを広げるのも無理、シャワーを浴びる時に真横にあるトイレにタオルや着替えを置かないといけなく、しかも狭いから濡れそうだし、出たスペースにある窓にはブラインドも無く、隣の窓があり見えます。 私達が着いてみたら、トイレが故障していて、トイレットペーパーも無く、LINEで伝えたからか、後からシーツを替えに来たけど、トイレはその日に直さず、わざわざ2階まで他の人達の部屋のトイレを借りに行かなきゃならず、しかもその為にその部屋の暗証番号をLINEしてきたのもどうかと思う始末。 おまけに翌日には修理する、とLINEしてきたのに、結局滞在中ずっと修理に来ず。 出て行った人の部屋はいつまでも放置。だとウォータークーラーの水もいつのか怖くて飲めませんでした。 とにかく酷い対応で、こんな宿泊は初めてでした。 私達だけではなかったようなので、サイトで扱うなら、今後他の被害者が出ないように対策すべきです。 こんなだとサイトに対する信用も無くします。

離弘大商圈很近

沒什麼好評 但不滿意 入住當天才告知預先訂的獨立房間無法給我們，只有通舖能給我們 雖然有說可以退款 但感受很差 感覺像被騙 也給想入住的旅客建議 定下後 提早確認房間房型 以免又遇到這種問題

Bad service

I couldn't make any comments on the environment of the hotel, cause my room was cancelled at the moment I arrived the hotel. The check-in time of this hotel was clearly stated as 14:00 til midnight, and I arrived at 23:30 which is within the check-in time period. However, they have sold my room to other customers before I arrived even I made full payment in advance and had a confirmation email of the room reservation. And the reason they sold my room to other customers is because they couldn't contact me and had to cancel my room. What a ridiculous reason. We ended up standing at the street from midnight til 3am calling Expedia to resolve the problem and arrange another hotel for us. This has made our journey really unpleasant.
