Very nice hotel for the price. Great location. Beautiful views of the beach AND city. Convenientl to restaurants, bars and shops. My room was clean and spacious. The room had a mini bar (addt'l charge of course) and the tv came equipt with Netflix. The front desk staff spoke decent english. The 15th floor has the hotel restaurant with even more amazing views and a very good breakfast buffet. Its a little over priced at nearly 30,000 krw. A longer stay would have allowed me to view the other dining options in the restaurant. I only stayed 1 night, so the only negative i could find was that the elevators are painfully slow. Other than that, a great hotel experience.

Great location, rooms were as advertised and clean, bathroom showing their age slightly but overall the hotel is pretty good. Dining at the hotel expensive but plenty of dining options nearby so no real issue (the few times we went to the rooftop the restaurant was very empty, could be so much more with those amazing views!), great opportunity….

Property is conveniently located to everything. Plenty of dining options surrounding the hotel with entertainment and beach activities. Hotel room was okay with crisp clean linens. The bathroom could’ve been cleaner and was extremely moldy.

We stayed in the Deluxe twin ocean view. The room is clean and modern. The bed is large, enough to for 2 persons to sleep. The location is right across the beach. Convenience store is just outside the hotel. The only problem is the room is very stuffy and hot. We went mid November. The aircon was turned off centrally so we couldn't switch it on.
