I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is fantastic, right in the middle of everything with convenient access to shopping and nice breakfast spots. The rooms are quite big, surprisingly quiet for a busy pedestrian zone, and impeccably clean and spacious. The service, despite the language barrier at the registration desk, was efficient and offered useful amenities like dry cleaning and tours assistance. However, a bit more clarity on pricing would have been nice. The dining, though having good options, had a few shortcomings, especially in the Western Breakfast selection. Nevertheless, the grilled fish was a standout. Overall, a great value-for-money stay with a few minor hiccups.

The hotel offers spacious rooms in an excellent location. Despite being situated in a busy pedestrian zone, it remains quiet. The service is kind, and while there may be language barriers at the registration desk, amenities like dry cleaning, laundry, and tours/ticket assistance are available. The location is terrific, right in the middle of everything, and just a short distance from the subway, ideal for shopping and convenient transportation. The dining experience varies from skimpy options to excellent homemade muffins.

This hotel exceeded my expectations with its spacious and quiet rooms despite being located in a busy pedestrian zone in the heart of the city center. The service was friendly, although some language barriers were present at the registration desk. The location is truly convenient, right in the vibrant heart of Gwangju with easy access to shopping and transportation. The dining experience had its ups and downs, offering a variety of dishes but lacking in the Western breakfast options. Overall, the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. On the positive side, the rooms were very spacious and the location was excellent right in the middle of everything, but I was quite disappointed as the rooms smelt of smoke and were poorly cleaned with hairs on the bed and floor. The service was friendly, although the staff didn't know English well. The dining options were skimpy, especially with Western breakfast. However, the location in Gwangju was terrific for shopping with numerous shops, restaurants, and nightlife nearby.
