“On the whole, we enjoyed our stay, including the hotel’s interesting vicinity, and we look forward to experiencing the i”
It was value for money - a suite more than 4 times the normal room size, with a jacuzzi and balcony, for under USD120 per night, including breakfast for 2. The buffet breakfast was also decent for the price. Concierge services were uneven, but one of the men at the front desk was very helpful - he gave advice on our day trip to Naejangsan and ensured that the taxi driver knew exactly what we wanted by translating our requests in English to Korean. The staff who came to our room to fix the safe also tried his best to help us, on our request, to change the language setting for the TV set. The staff at the hotel’s restaurant were also helpful and courteous even though they had to deal with full houses on the two mornings we were there.

My place to go for staying in Gwangju with super access to the city and airport. The integrated 24/7 convenience store is also super handy.

“Is it for the Tourist”
We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment. The apartment has plenty of room and is very comfortable on cold rainy mornings. The apartment has a kitchen but no utensils or pans and no plates and cups. Also, the bathroom has no door, but we found this else where also. We used the Convenience Shop a fair bit. Wifi is good. We couldn't log on until we used the router address and password. Reception didn't speak very much English.

“very good hotel, poor breakfast”
good hotel and location, but the free breakfast was not so good, not too many options and they didnt even have eggs. Even though it was free it can be improved.
