At the time of this review, hotels.com lists "laundry facilities" as an amenity. This is not accurate. They do have "laundry services" and they will do a fantastic job with your laundry if needed.
The hotel sits behind the Gaisano Country Mall and it is a very easy walk to shop. Plenty of different places to eat. Feels safe, and if you need to go further, the front desk staff can help you with a taxi. I would definitely stay here again.
Place located behind a good strip mall so getting food was easy. Nice little kitchenette.the beds were comfortable. The staff was friendly and did a nice job of changing the linens each day and cleaning.
The living room furnature was not the most comfortable. The bathroom is Jack and Jill.
If you want to cook your meal you have to pay extra for that. They have bottled water dispenser in the dinning room and if you want additional bottled water you have to pay for that as well. Note: you have to pay for both the water and gas with cash. No credit cards for those items.
The place has two security guard 24/7 felt very secure here.
Overall it was a pleasant stay in the heart of the city. One of few hotels to offer two bedroom with queen beds.

10 meters from a full scale noisy building site
This is a nice little long term stay hotel in a quiet street a few miles from town but a stone's throw away from all you need
BUT... from 7.30 - 10pm their is the constant banging , drilling and clattering of a full scale building site 10 meters from the hotel
If all you do is sleep in the hotel , you will be fine but if you dont . YOU WILL NEED EAR PLUGS
I tolerated it for 4 nights as I was told i could not reduce my planned one week stay but it eventually got to me and I left after 4 days . Management hide and can't be found and only agreed to refund me two nights because I have a damaging video of what the noise is actually like
They brought this review on themselfs . I asked after 2 days if I could cancel my booking because of the noise . If they had said yes, I would have been grateful and left no review. But there attitude is one of , Tough you booked it .
Some people never learn . Will be a nice little hotel in 2-3 years time once building work is finished .
두번째 방문하는 호텔, 주방시설 이용 시 전기 1개는 무료이나 화력이 좋지않아 항상 LPG를 추가비용을 내고 이용하고 있음. 룸 크리닝 등 여러요청에 대하여 여러번 애기해야 전달이 됨. (직원들이 파트타임으로 변경되어 전달이 안되는 것 같음)

Not as good as our first stay
This was our second stay and not good. Took their last available room - small studio room. On arrival it smelt strongly of cigarettes, the fridge/ref smelt awful too. Overnight we were both continually bitten by eother bed bugs or mosquitoes. Probably bedbugs as no humming.
Our prevoous stay was the 3-bedroom apartment which was stunning and terrific value. Disappointing not all rooms offered at same level.
Very friendly staff, Fast Check-In, Big Room with a Nice View that we booked at a GREAT value. Walking distance to Shopping mall with lots of various food choices. Easy to get a taxi to go the nearby places.
The room I booked was awesome. It has 3 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms and a full kitchen. The staff were very friendly. Its a condo style that feels like at home. No complain at all here. My family of 7 had enjoyed our stay so much! Thank you!
