I chose this hotel because it was close to the beach. The room was large and the two queen beds were perfect for four persons. The bathroom needs some improvement, like the shower room, as the bathroom becomes cold as soon as you take a shower.

The hotel is close to the express bus terminal, but not to another intercity bus terminal. If you are traveling by bus, make sure to ask the bus company at what terminal your bus is stopping because this hotel is not near the intercity bus terminal. Buses travel from various parts of Korea at these two terminals. The intercity bus terminal is the most important bus stop. The hotel is adequate, and the room is large. The only issue was that they assigned me a room above the basement ceiling that featured bbd pits. Korean television likes bbd. When I spent the night in my room, the whole room was overflowing with bbd smoke, which was hard for me to ignore. I admire every aspect of this hotel, but the smell of bbd smoke really made me think twice about returning.

This location is extremely close to the express train station. We stayed here for four nights and wholeheartedly recommend it. The staff was very helpful in many aspects, such as late, last minute, day, or early arrivals. They even gave us a breakfast to eat the day before our departure because it was too early to get the usual breakfast. genuinely great people, one of the greatest examples of Korean hospitality. Breakfast consists of western-style coffee, croissants, and buns with jam and butter in their lovely, hipster cafe and coffee lounge downstairs.

The employees are excellent and have good English skills! The attached cafe is pleasant and has the usual selection of drinks. The position is excellent - 2 minutes to the beach, 10 minutes to the smart and lots of delicious seafood restaurants around. The rooms are subpar, the bed was hard as a rock, even by Korean standards. The mirror had greasy kids' fingerprints all over it from the previous guest. The bathroom door had a hole in it and no lock. Foreigner friendly, convenient location, and adequate amenities.

I would highly suggest staying here given its location and affordability. I made this hotel mainly because of it's strategic location, which is just a 5-minute stroll from the express bus station. There is minimal traffic, and the neighborhood is peaceful. All of the personnel are courteous and accommodating to my inquiries, and they speak good English. A digital lock is installed on the room. My double studio, which I reserved at 50, was quite large. The bed is spotless and cozy. All the necessary utensils and cutlery are in the kitchen. Numerous TV channels, including English-language films, are available. There is an entire air conditioner, refrigerator, essentials, a hot shower, slippers, a boiler, and a hair dryer, and a water and ice dispenser along the corridor. In the reception area, breakfast is served at a reasonable rate. Mostly pastries with excellent coffee. Self-service orange juice, milk, and cornflakes are provided. There is a small inconvenience, no hangers in the shower area, no table to store my luggage for such a large room, and small bathroom towels.
