ทำเลดี รถไฟใต้ดินต้องเดินประมาณนึงแต่โอเครับได้มีป้ายบัสไปสนามบิน มีป้ายบัสไปรอบๆ

Cons:

ไม่มีฮีทเตอร์ในห้อง ตอนแรกเข้าใจว่ามีในห้องเพราะตอนจองระบุไว้จนหนาวไม่ไหวไปถามพนักงานถึงเอาเป็นตัวเครื่องมาให้แยก

Bad, really really bad, probably one of the worst stay i have ever had in Korea
Cons:

It was very disgusting, they didn’t even clean the slippers, it has all kind of previous travelers’ dead skin….. it was too gross that we would rather wear our own running shoes after shower. And the bidet has excrement on it. The bath tub also has pink stain. I would never come to this hotel again, I was staying at designer ddp hotel last time, not sure if they are related but it was a really pleasant experience and that was the reason why I booked this hotel without researching at the beginning and found out they are not the same at the end. I didn’t have enough time to take pictures of everything. Your system has some problems I can’t upload the pictures, please provide an email address that I can send my images to thanks !

이곳을 어쨔~....
Pros:

별로 없음

Cons:

세상에 침대 이불을 개장이후 한 번도 세탁을 안했는지, 교체를 안하는 건지 목과 가슴 닿는 부분이 누렇고, 검고, 이런저런 것들로 오염이 되어 있어서 정말 기분 찜찜했음. 가격을 높이시더라도 한 번 교체를 하세요. 제발. 외국인들이 많이 자는 곳인데 진짜 나라망신입니다.
