Excellent welcome at reception, spacious rooms, high quality amenities.
The breakfast was a BIG disappointment. It is priced as higher-end 5* hotels, but with limited choice of items, questionable freshness of food and slowness in serving even coffee and tea. Not to be repeated!

The worst that can happen is when you wake up in the morning and you don't have hot water. This is the most basic need and if the hotel is unable to provide this then to be it's a failure.
After I complained an engineer came to the room and saw the issue and after I returned to my room later the problem was still there.

깨끗한 숙소 그러나...
숙소는 아주 깨끗하고 넓은 침대 및 거실, 3개의 화장실로 쾌적하게 지낼 수 있었음.
하지만 부족한 수건에 대한 보충 요청은 무시되었고, 21세기에 남녀가 구분된 수영장이라니... 가족들이 함께 즐기기에는 부족했음.
