Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and the bath tub was a good size for two, although the air conditioning was not cold enough. However, the lack of cleanliness and mold on the curtain was a letdown. The location was great, especially being close to the Dongdaemum Night Shopping, but the service could be better. Overall, it was okay for Korean standards.
