"Great location and a lovely place to stay. Very powerful and hot shower which was nice. The only thing that was somewhat bizarre was you get no big towels to dry yourself after a shower, only a couple of ones about the size and consistency of tea- towels! In over 35 years of travelling, I have never not had proper towels in my room!"

8/10 Good
"This hotel is quite dated. The bathroom was clean but needed for a very thorough cleansing especially the ceiling. Water mark/mold was present. The room we had a fantastic view showing 2 temple like structures and mountains. Breath taking. The room size was quite large with 2 beds, a desk with a stool, TV, and a refrigerator. It only had electrical outlets almost hiding underneath the desk and next to the refrigerator not near the beds. You need to pay to use the gym or spa or swimming pool. Again the facilities were old. I would recommend this hotel because it is located in a very convenient tourist area with lots of eateries and amusement parks, and its proximity to many of Gyeongju's historical sites. Very kind front desk too."

I also want to mention that my husband lost on of his headphones in an obscure hole under the vanity in the bathroom and the staff went out of their way to retrieve it.
