It is located very close to the train station. Although it is located close to the streets you can hardly here the noise from inside. The room rate charged by the hotel is very competitive. Front desk clerk was very helpful.
Nice and cosy, pretty sweet stay considering the affordable cost. There's even a hair straightener in the room
About 10 min walk from metro, but there's a small up/down slope walk, not the most ideal for heavy luggage
호텔내부가 깨끗하고 좋았습니다. 며칠전 다른 호텔에서 핸드폰충전기를 놓고와서 그것을 찾느라 애를 먹었는데... 놀랍게도 이 호텔은 종류별로 충전기를 구비해놓았더군요. 손님에 대한 친절한 배려라 여겨집니다. 또 길안내를 받았는데 친절하게 안내해주었고, 특히 저희는 부부가 여행했는데 어떤 호텔에 들어가면 으례히 '성관련물품'을 백에 넣어 주는데 솔직히 언짢습니다. 필요한 사람들도 있겠지만 말입니다. 그러한 물품도 다 가격에 들어가겠지요? 그런데 이 호텔은 그러한 강요가 없이 1회용품이 1천원인데 구입하겠느냐고 물어왔습니다. 우리는 1회용품들을 모두 준비해서 다니기때문에 필요하지 않아 구입안했습니다. 이 호텔... 작지만 참 좋습니다. 다음에 이곳에 여행오게 되면 한번더 묵어야겠습니다.
They do not change bed sheets at all. Found hair, urine stain, blood stains and foundation left over on bed sheet and pillow cover. The staff changed room for us twice. But the conditions were same in the other two rooms. Unhygienic and definitely do not recommend.
4인 가족이 숙박하기에 최적의 숙소입니다.
프런트 24시간 오픈이라 저녁 11시에 조마조마하며 들어갔는데도 잘 대해주셨고,
널찍한 침대에 화장실 편리하고, 가격 적당하고, 주차까지 가능한 곳을 찾는게 어려웠는데 잘 찾았습니다. 위치는 차로 이동해 잘은 모르겠습니다만 주차가 가능하니 더 바랄게 없었어요.
Al principio no logré ubicar el hotel según el mapa y me tomo más de una hora localizarlo y luego pedir un taxi pero ya en el lugar el hotel es muy cómodo confortable muy higiénico tiene lo necesario y tiene lugares cercanos para comer y para transportarse
