The location was amazing. We were in the middle of a lively area of bars, restaurants, and coffee shops, but the rooms were soundproof enough that you could go upstairs and sleep without being disturbed. There is a free continental breakfast with eggs, toast, coffee, juice, etc. The hotel is a five-minute walk from Sangmu Station

Adequate hotel close to everything you need!

I read reviews saying that that this hotel is just another motel, but NO it was not. The location was in hottest bar areas but so what? It's approximately 8 mins walk from train station, close to convenience store, eating places, Lotte Mart, main town, Starbucks and even have full buffet breakfast! It made my 3d2n trip in Gwangju a memorable one indeed! Thank you!

복도에서의 이상한 냄새

복도 냄새가 너무 불쾌했어요. 룸 자체는 괜찮았지만, 역시 방에서도 복도 냄새가 약하게 나다보니…. 관리를 좀 하셔야할 듯해요.
