“Good but not that great.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2010
8
people found this review helpful

The room was spacious and the beds were pretty comfy. They provided each bed with 2 pillows each: 1 medium size and 1 small pillow. the room was equipped with a hot/cold water dispenser (very useful!) and a hairdryer. The bathroom has a jacuzzi-bathtub-shower, but we can seem to understand how to use the jacuzzi, it's all in Korean.

The only downside would be...
- the doors for the bathroom was see-thru. Thank God there was another wooden door that would separate the bathroom with the bedroom. However the wooden door separates the hallway towards the entrance. so whoever enters/exits will bound to see someone inside the bathroom on the way out/in. :-s
- it seems that Koreans are really into saving electricity. There is a timer for the bathroom lights. u can choose between 20 minutes, 40 minutes or 60 minutes. once the timer is up, the lights in the bathroom will automatically be switched off. it happened to me twice, i was having my shower, and the lights when out, it was completely dark. had to shout to my parents to switch the lights back on. so the trick would be, before u went in u should switch off the lights and then switch it back on, u have 60 minutes to be done with ur business! :))
- the last one would be, they don't provide any shampoo, conditioner or body wash. they only provide us with only 1 miserable body soap during our 5 nights staying there. they never provide with a new soap each time they clean the room. imagine 3 people using the same small soap for a whole week. since we brought along some shampoo and soap with us so it wasn't that bad. however i would always bring back the free hotel amenities from every hotel we stayed in, so i was quite disappointed there weren't any.
- as for the breakfast buffet, they serve the same food every single day. not much choice to choose from.
