직원님들은 매우 친절했고 객실도 깨끗해서 만족했지만 ㅜㅜ 손님들이 화장실을 더럽게 쓰고 손님들이 수건 사용후 엉망으로 둬서 불쾌했어요. 직원님들은 전부 친절하고 좋았습니다.

깨끗하고 인테리어도 예뻐서 좋은데 화장실이 라운지(?) 안에 있는게 아쉬워요.. 다른 사람들 멀쩡한 차림으로 작업하는데 그 공간을 쌩얼에 후줄근하게 왔다갔다하니까 창피하더라구요..

강남에서 이 가격이 가능한가 싶을 정도로 가성비가 좋은 숙소입니다. 편리한 체크인/체크아웃 시스템, 어메니리도 다 구비되어 있고 새로 오픈해서 그런지 객실 및 시설도 깔끔하고 예뻐서 좋았어요. 잠만 딱 자고 나오기 아주 좋은 숙소라 다음에 또 강남 올 일 있을 때 재방문할 생각입니다. 강추입니다!
