This is a great hotel if you are visiting Gwangju by train. It's a short walk to the Songjeong Train Station which has many bus routes. It's not the newest hotel but the room is still modern and nice. Jacuzzi is great after a long trip. Staff was very kind and helpful.

The location is very near the KTX terminal so it's convenient for travelers. If you drive, they have parking which they will take your keys as soon as you check in. They do serve breakfast but I didn't visit the restaurant. There is a coffee shop attached, and Edeya and Starbucks are both within a block of hotel. Very clean rooms and comfortable beds.

何よりも光州松汀駅直ぐの立地で､地下鉄での移動も楽ですし、トッカルビ通りはじめ飲食店もいろいろあり､街中も明るく安心出来る環境かと思います。朝食付きプランなので多くは望んではならないと思いますが、おかずのバリエーションがもう少し多様だと、連泊でも更に楽しみが大きくなるかと思いました。味は美味しいです。 部屋の大きさは十分に広く、清潔で快適でした。

욕조에 물을 받고 월풀기능을 키니까 바로 머리카락들이 튀어나왔습니다. 많지는 않았지만 (열가닥 정도 분량) 월풀 회전때문인지 요상하게 묶여서 가느다란 거미 처럼 보여 잡아보려 했으나, 곧 머리카락임을 알고 굉장히 불쾌해서 물을 다시 다 빼고 채웠습니다. 1인실에도 욕조가 있어서 이 호텔을 선택했는데 출장에서 꼭 욕조를 사용 하는 사람에게는 상당히 실망스러웠어요. 방음이 잘되어 매우 좋았습니다
