Really well located, friendly staff, good english language. Clean and nicely sized rooms. My room had 2 options of mattress softness or rather hardness - hard or harder, but it was ok.

Bad location for all you'd wish to visit in Gwangju. Smelled like cigarettes. NO LAUNDRY!!

“Excellent service at Hound Hotel Sangmu, Gwangju”
The service by the staff: the reception, dining hall and cleaning staff was exceptional. They were very helpful. They oriented me to their hotel and the available facilities (spa chair, tumble dryer etc) and how I could use them. They even helped me with booking a train and taxi back to Seoul.
