El personal muy atento y amable, el desayuno incluido es bueno, el único inconveniente es que falla diario y varias veces al día la luz, y aunque tienen generador a veces tarda en entrar en servicio y el suministro de energía está limitado a bombillas y ventilador

별로 추천하고 싶지는 않음

우선 호텔에 간판이 없어서, 현지 택시기사도 물어물어 찾아가야함. 정작 호텔을 찾아도 현지인들이 사는 골목 안에 있어 차가 못들어감. 어찌저찌 체크인은 하였으나 그 후로 직원들 보기가 힘듦. 방에 전화기도 없고 따로 프런트가 마련되어있지 않기에 독립성은 보장되나 뭘 물어보기가 어려움. 조식은 매우 간단하며 객실 밖 테이블에 배달됨. 체크아웃 할 때도 직원이 안 보여서 그냥 키 두고 나옴. 주변은 진짜 현지인들이 사는 낙후된 주택들, 비포장 진흙길임. 비오면 물이 안 빠짐. 전기도 종종 끊기고(이 동네 전체가) 본인은 샤워기 누수로 밤새 물 터져나오고 아침에 물 사용을 못하는 지경이었음. 샴푸가 없고, 손비누, 바디워시, 바디로션만 구비됨
