Property was very outdated. Escalator was sketchy and old. Bed was extremely hard and uncomfortable. We didn’t feel safe so we moved hotels after the first day. I don’t recommend this place especially with family. Thankfully staff understood and allowed refund.

立地が最高である為定宿にしています　 相変わらず従業員の一人はいつも不機嫌で感じ悪くチェックインの際は恐ろしささえ感じます　残念でなりません 笑顔にはお金は必要ないです 接客業ならそれなりの対応の出来るかたを雇用するとよいと思います

Si solo piensas en un lugar para dormir es amplio, las habitaciones se mantienen limpias , es un lugar tranquilo para descansar. Pero las instalaciones en general están un poco descuidadas. El personal es amable

金額相応だと思います

位置的なところと値段で決めました。20年前の韓国を思い出すサービスです。慣れていれば、こんなものかなと受け入れられますが、快適に過ごしたいのであれば他のホテルも参照されたほうがいいでしょう。。 時期的にエアコンは操作できないと言われ、ホテル側で温度設定するとのこと。初日やや寒いと訴えたら自分の部屋だけオンドルを入れてくれました。 テレビの接続不良が何度もあり、それがやや不便でした。

広さは◎ですが清潔感は△でした

良かった点 部屋が広くてスーツケースを広げる余裕がある バスタブがある 清掃毎日あり 500mlの水のサービスが毎日ある 気になった店 バスタブがあるが髪の毛が残ってたり、底の汚れが気になった トイレットペーパーが流せない スリッパは使い回し アメニティはほぼなし(歯ブラシなし) エアコンを付けた時にニオイあり

ダブルベット➕シングルベットのツインルームを2名で宿泊。 料金を考えたらコストパフォーマンス的にはいいかと思います。 隅々までキレイではありませんでしたが、ベット、テーブルはきれい。コンセントもたくさんありました。ユニットバスで、シャワーカーテンはなしでしたが広いです。水圧はGood！ バスタオル、タオルあり。備え付けのシャンプーなどあり。歯ブラシは1階自販機で購入しないとありません。 ルームキーは1つしかもらえませんでした。 安く泊まりたい人には悪くないのでは？女性1人はちょっと怖いけど。
