Great stay. I will return.
Pros:

The room and breakfast exceeded expectations. I was there for 5 nights and the staff supplied fresh towels and supplies daily.

Cons:

The only caveat: I always wear earplugs so it wasn't an issue for me but the AC may have been a little loud.

Pros:

아침식사가 최고! 자쿠지와 수영장은 하루의 피로를 녹여줍니다.그리고 하루종일 언제던 이용할수 있는 식당의 테이블.호텔 바로옆 타코식당과 편의점이서 사온 음식을 호텔내 식당이서 편히 먹을수 있슴. 호텔옆(도보 30초) 타코집 맛있슴.

Cons:

주차비 따로 받는것.

Comfortable stay, but to avoid a parking fee, I will probably stay at a different hotel next time.
Pros:

Comfortable, clean room. Good customer service. Hot breakfast.

Cons:

There is a $20 parking fee. It's in the "property policies" section, so you have to seek it out. This is not a downtown hotel. I didn't expect to pay for parking but it showed up on my bill. Just charge $20 more for the room and have free parking. Don't nickel and dime after I paid in full.
