Only booked hotel for 7 hours while waiting for a late flight
Pros:

Lunch was OK. Staff were friendly and helpful especially when trying to sort out airport transport via local providers.

Cons:

Lack of drink choice (only beer and Coke Zero available), no airport transfer driver available, restaurant was also a staff meeting room, advertised pictures of hotel seemed to be different to the actual hotel, noisey and drunk guests with loud music by the pool.

I appreciate it was New Years Eve but it is still an open hotel so should still function as required.

공항 근처 가격대비 좋은 호텔
Pros:

괜찮은 호텔입니다, 조식도 좋아요

Cons:

밤 11시 30분 까지 행사를 하여 소란 스러웠는데, 거기에 도로 소음도 우려하였는데, 그리 심하지 않았습니다. 가겨

Terrible!
Pros:

We checked in at nearly midnight. We were all very exhausted and were looking forward to a good sleep. However, the air conditioner wasn’t working - the room was super super hot. The light at the dressing table wasn’t working. We were really disappointed- we booked the hotel because of the good reviews we read…..
No lift so if you can’t walk up the stairs, request for a room downstairs.

Disappointing
Pros:

Although very close to airport not close to anything else. When we arrived a festival was taking place in the gardens. Very noisy and we wasn’t told it would be on

Cons:

No lift. Dated. Right next to a very busy main road

Super comfortable stay with delicious dinner!
Pros:

The hotel is really modern and staff is super friendly and forthcoming. We got offered packed breakfast, since we had to leave early for the flight. There was a wedding taking place with loud music, but it stopped at around 22:30, and then we had a quiet night. Dinner was absolutely amazing (can really recommend the Amora dish platter!) and at low cost. We didn't take the airport shuttle however, since 20$ is a multiple of the Uber. For the rest we can absolutely recommend this hotel, especially as an airport hotel!

Cons:

The price of the airport shuttle.

The room did not match the amenities listed in the booking
Pros:

I booked a room for a leisure stay with my partner, and initially, everything was excellent especially the reception experience. The staff at the front desk were incredibly polite, welcoming, and friendly, which made a great first impression

Cons:

Upon entering our room, we noticed an office gathering taking place near the pool area, complete with a DJ and karaoke. The noise was so loud that it made our stay unpleasant. To make matters worse, the Wi-Fi was extremely slow, so we tried using mobile data instead. Unfortunately, the reception in Room 726 was very weak, leaving us with no other options.

Additionally, the hot water in the shower took a long time to start, and after a while, it stopped working entirely forcing me to take a cold shower. Another disappointment was the absence of a bathtub, which was listed as an amenity in the booking but was not available in our room.

Lastly, the staff’s behavior was unprofessional at times. Instead of greeting guests politely, they would stare while passing through common areas, making us feel very uncomfortable. Due to these issues, we decided to check out on the same day.
