Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is situated on top of a very steep hill, making it challenging to reach, but it's quite close to tourist attractions. The rooms are spacious and include a double bed, a sofa, chairs, and a kitchen. The service is efficient, however, laundry service is not available. The hotel offers handmade pasta at the included dining, which is a delightful experience. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, offering a comfortable stay.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The room was cozy and clean, the staff was incredibly helpful, and the location was just perfect. However, the dining options were a bit limited. Overall, a wonderful experience!
The hotel is perched on top of a very steep hill, making it quite challenging to access, but once up there, the location offers proximity to medical clinics and tourist attractions. The rooms are spacious and modern, but the bathroom is quite small for our needs. The service is convenient, including housekeeping and laundry services. The dining experience includes regional jams, but the facilities lack certain key amenities expected at this price point.
I loved staying at this hotel! The rooms were cozy, the service was excellent, and the location was convenient. However, the dining options were a bit limited. Overall, it was a great experience!
Our stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location was ideal, close to downtown and many great restaurants. The rooms were spacious with a kitchen and a double bed, perfect for our toddler. The service was exceptional, including attentive housekeeping and laundry services. The dining experience was delightful with included gyu-don dishes. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is situated in a great neighborhood with easy access to the metro, surrounded by medical clinics and restaurants. The rooms are well-equipped with kitchen facilities, a double bed, and a cozy sitting area. The service is top-notch with excellent housekeeping and laundry options. However, the location behind an alley might not suit everyone.
