위치는 좋지만 중국인이 많음

호스트가 중국사람인지 물어볼정도로.. 중국인이 많았다. 강남역이라서 성형하고 머무는 중국인이 대다수인듯 했고 화장실은 세면대에 물이 안내려갈정도로 매우 더러웠다. 침실과 방은 안락하였고, 게스트를 위한 간식이나 라면 음료 등이 무료로 제공되는 점이 좋은점이다. 스탭들은 모두 친절하였지만, 밤 12시가 넘어서도 시끄럽게 떠드는 중국인들 탓에 다시 숙박하러 가고싶지는 않다. 가격이 저렴하여 기본적인 세안과 잠만자고 나오기에는 괜찮다.

가지 마세요

2층 욕실 물이 빠지지 않아 샤워 후 물바다. 지저분한 공동 거실. 조식은 차려 먹을 수 있게 되었으나 지저분한 부엌으로 사용하고 싶지 않았음. 성형 때문에 온 중국인들 뿐이었고 새벽까지 매우 시끄러웠는데 게하 숙박시 지켜야 할 예절에 대해 전혀 모르는 것 같았음.

강남역 근처라 교통이 편안하고 근처에 괜찮은 식당과 카페가 많으며 무엇보다 사장님이 친절하고 인심도 좋으셨다. 방도 따뜻하고 안락했으며 조식도 비교적 다양하고 편안하게 이용할 수 있도록 배려해 주셔서 내집처럼 편안하게 쉴 수 있어 다음에도 또 이용하고 싶다.
