Pros:

중앙역에서 가깝고, 여러 편의 시설이 주변에 있습니다.
깨끗하고 편안했습니다. 또한 조식도 알차게 구성되어 있어서 하루를 든든하게 보낼 수 있습니다. 재방문 의사있음.

Cons:

객실크기. 캐리어 26인치 2개 펴기가 꽤 어려웠지만, 다음엔 짐을 줄여서 가야겠어요

Cons:

This hotel initially mentioned that the rooms would be warm, but on the first night the heating system stopped working. The room was very cold and I caught the flu. The manager couldn’t provide me with a heater at that time. They gave me a heater the next day, but it was already too late.
