"The hotel's location is quite inconvenient so if you do not own a car, it might be not ideal accommodation. Also, maybe due to the season, there were not much restaurants and stores open. I tried to visit the Megabox movie theatre and it was dead quiet. Accommodation is quiet and clean. Very warm. I do not recommend breakfast though. Not much options "

"Clean, comfortable and right in downtown Gwangju! Close to the train station if you’re taking the trail from Seoul. The breakfast buffet had hot Korean food (not instant ramen!) and the room had this great machine to freshen clothes! We drove from Pyeongtaek and got in at 2200 and the front desk had our room ready and waited for us. Highly recommend this hotel! "
