Great stay!
The owner was very kind and let me into the room right away even though I arrived hours early. She also let me store luggage there after I checked out. Altogether a great experience.

저렴한 값에 비해 좋은 호텔
2만원도 안 하는 가격에 불만을 품는건 문제가 있지만 어쨌든 화장실 문이 없는건 불편하네요. 그래도 이 값에 머물다 가는데에 큰 불편은 없는 정도입니다. 침대 위에 수건이랑 어메니티 놓여있어서 좋네요. 아, 참고로 계단 없어서 짐 들고 올라가다가 죽네요.
