部屋は良かったですがセキュリティが…
特に不便無く過ごせました。部屋は十分なスペースがあり、エアコンもしっかり効いてたしシャンプーリンスの質も良かったと思います。大きめのテレビもついててYouTube見れました。騒音も特に無し。 ただ掃除があまり行き届いておらず、パッと見綺麗でもよく見ると前の宿泊客の細かいゴミが残ってたり、新しいはずのタオルに髪の毛が付いてたりと気になる所がありました。 またセキュリティ面でも、0時を過ぎると2階の正門は施錠されるのに1階の外のガレージに繋がる扉は開きっぱなしで実質誰でも出入りできる状態でした。私の部屋の目の前だったのでそこが少し怖かったです。

Great location, friendly staff, cute hotel!
A friend and I stayed for two nights and it was a really cute hotel. The bed was comfortable, shower was nice, amenities great and the location was perfect! The only thing is we found a used condom on the floor next to the bed so that was gross but the staff was super friendly. Oh and also the stairs were full of towels, etc so it was hard to go up the stairs. We just took the elevator every time. Definitely would stay again and recomend the hotel.

Not a good option for rest or sleep
We arrived for check in at around 7 pm. We were told we had the option between two rooms: a small one which was ready right away and a slightly larger one that would be ready in five minutes. We viewed the smaller room and refused right away. We decided to wait five minutes to view the larger room. It was no better. This review is based on a quick viewing of the first room (room 301) and a very brief stay in the second room (room 302). Our room had a mirror on the ceiling above the bed, holes in the wall to the right of the bed (which were covered up with tissue), the smell of cigarette smoke and perfume, a poorly functioning sink faucet that poured (not just leaked) water all over the sink area and floor, and fair amount of mould on the washroom tiles and walls. (To be clear, the holes in the wall were created when a fixture was removed; they were not “peeping” holes. Nevertheless, they added a strange feeling to the room.) The staff seemed sincere, but their friendly service did little to address issues of comfort. (When we expressed concern about the smell of smoke and perfume in the first room we viewed, the older gentleman’s response was that we should have booked a different hotel. He wasn’t rude when he made the suggestion. He appeared to be genuinely trying to let us know that we would not feel comfortable in the hotel.) This “hotel” was a terrible option for us, and we left within the hour.

여기에 가지 마세요! 최악입니다.
일단 객실이 담배냄새에 쩔어 있구요 원래 오후 3시부터 체크인된다고 알고 갔었는데 밤 10시라고 해서 황당했네요 예약까지 받아놓은 객실을 오후에 대실 영업하는것 같네요 담배냄새때문에 밤새 문 열어놓고 자다가 다음날 왠 감기까지 걸렸네요
