"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! "

![Downtown Gwangju, South Korea, is the place to be if you like loud music, cheap beer, karaoke and cosmetics.  Take a walk down the shopping street where each shop will try to out-do the other over how loud they can play some form of EDM or Kpop. You'll be dazzled by the bright lights and stores. But once you've reached the centre you can veer off and find one of the many bars to settle down in and spend the night drinking Maekju (beer) with friends. It's so lively you won't know where to look.
