"This property, I believe, is more akin to what Koreans refer to as motel, rather than hotel. Fairly overpriced for what it offers: small room, poor amenities, and terrible wifi connections. The only thing that is commendable about this motel is the staff is kind and attentive to your requests, although for the most time they were beyond their capacity or control."
