היה מאוד נחמד
Pros:

הצוות היה מסביר פנים וחייכן. שהיה צריך עזרה הם עזרו באהבה. המלון היה נקי ומסודר כולל החדר.
המיטה נוחה

Cons:

בעיקר בחדר אוכל.
התור למכונת קפה היה ארוך, לא היה מבחר ב-א. בוקר רק נקניק אורז ביצה קשה ופירות וכמה דברים בודדים.

יש אנשים שלא אוכלים את זה בבוקר ..

Pros:

If you need to be in the area, World Cup CBD, this the hotel to stay. Very comfortable and spacious room. The gym is great. The swimming pool is OK for some laps, but short (15 m). Good breakfast.

Cons:

For a four-star hotel, the swimming pool (only 15 m long) could be included in the tariff. It's the CBD, so night options are limited for bars and restaurants.

Pleasant hotel close to the airport .
Pros:

Booked this hotel for a two‑day stay mainly because it advertised a fitness club with a pool. I originally meant to book the hotel from the same chain located in the city center, but I mistakenly chose this one. That said, the room was spacious, we were upgraded free of charge upon arrival, and the staff were friendly. The breakfast was so and so.

Cons:

The only downside was the access to the pool. There was a daily fee per person, with no discount for hotel guests, and no option to pay a single fee for the whole stay. It felt as if the fitness club operated separately from the hotel, and as a guest I didn’t feel rewarded for choosing this property.

Lovely hotel
Pros:

Bus stop right in front of the hotel, 7/11 and restaurants right around the corner. Both breakfast and lunch at the hotel restaurant is nice. Staff spoke great English and were very helpful (we asked for an extra pilllow)
If you're still in the room when the cleaning staff are making their rounds they'll come back later. They make sure to restock the fridge with water.

Cons:

If you want to use the laundry room you need cash. A toltal of 6.500 won to cover detergent, washing and drying. There is an ATM at the hotel but it's better to save some cash or get cash from your IC Card.
