Excellent location
Enjoyed this hotel. Very conveniently located a 2 minute walk from train station and subway station. Easy access from Mu An airport and Gwangju airport. Hotel was clean and rooms were spacious. Really liked the drycleaning machine in our room. My only 2 complaints were that breakfast was subpar and the hallways sometimes smelled of smoke. I would definitely stay here again though.

Very spacious and clean modern Korean style hotel.
Very big room and bathroom with tile floors. It was very clean with lots of ultra modern amenities like a dry cleaning machine to freshen up your clothes and a bathtub with massaging jets. It’s also very near the train station.

Great hotel
I honestly didn’t expect much for 80 a night, that being said it was a great hotel. It had a nice size bathroom, with a large tub and shower separate, it had a large bed and tv, and it even had a wrinkle removal machine that fits a good amount of cloths. The breakfast was very well done as well. Not only did they have a good selection they also had a good split between western and eastern meals, allowing you to venture out a bit but still get a good meal in. The only issues we ran into was that you do get a very small fridge in your room and the front desk doesn’t know much English, but considering where we are at that’s understandable. All in all I’d stay again in a heartbeat.
