Thought hot-spa in the bathtub worked but did not. Breakfast provide every morning at no charge during staying that hotel. Nothing special here. Bus transportation is somewhat messed up with google map sometimes. Not updated google map. Nice landmarks or history to see day and night especially hot day.

Good breakfast provided

4th time staying here. Convenient location just 3 min from intercity express bus terminal n local bus terminal. 20-30 min walk to the main tourist spots-大陵苑etc. Most love the breakfast provided-sausages, egg, toast, salad, fruit n drinks. However, it seems the price has gone up quite a lot. Quite expensive this time.

Great location near the bus station and busses 10,11,700 which will take you to the temples outside of town. Only 10–15 walk to the center of town. The neighborhood is going through a major overhaul with lots new hotels. Previous reviewers mentioned gambling halls and such, but these all appear to be closed down for some time. The neighborhood was safe. The room itself was cozy, modern, and spacious. To breakfast, although the same for the 2 days I was there, was also good. Highly recommend!

Not owned by a hotel chain

If you’re looking for a hotel chain, then this place is not the one. This place felt more like a family operated bed and breakfast with some hotel like features. Clean place with comfortable bed. Lighting a bit yellow though. Washroom felt a little outdated but overall clean. Would recommend this place if anyone is in the area. Hot tub didn’t work though.

Pretty good

Good location, quite close to bus terminal and not far from lots of the must-see historical spots around Gyeongju. The hotel itself is nice, the rooms relatively spacious with decent amenities. It is family run and reasonably friendly. The complimentary breakfast was dreadful and as a result skipped out on it for most of our stay.

Friendly, clean, comfortable hotel

Fantastic hotel with friendly and attentive staff. We paid a little more (about £20 more overall) for the deluxe double room and it was well worth it. The bed was very comfy and the bath was huge! Free breakfast had something for everyone and was tasty. The hotel managers and front desk staff were so nice and welcoming. Thank you for a lovely stay.

It is an average hotel located in an entertainment district. The rooms are a bit worn down. The staff at the reception is not very attentive. However it is OK for a couple of nights if the room rates are reasonable at the time of booking.
