새로지은 시설이라 깨끗하고 늦은 시간임에도 친절하게 응대해주심. 다만 거리가 도심지와는 좀 멀어서 그랩을 타고 이동하는데에 그 비용이 아깝다는 생각이 들면 추천하지 않음

이용후기

숙소는 정말 편한데, 주변에 갈데가 없어서 아쉬었어요(그랩 가능) 근데 조식이 없어서 아쉬웠어요ㅠㅠ 그리고 비행기 연착돼서 좀 늦게 도착했는데 카운터에 아무도 없어서.. 못들어갈뻔했어요ㅠㅠ 불안했어요

공항에서 가깝고 무엇보다 정말 깨끗하고 조용하고 쾌적합니다. 첫날 늦게 도착해서 잠만 자려고 했다가 너무 마음에 들어서 3일동안 있었어요.

Dock in - 1 night

The hostel is in good condition. Compared to others it was quite pricey. No food or drink allowed in your room, no shoes at all, no smoking, the deposit had to be on cash and we were leaving the following day so ended up with cash we couldn't spend before leaving at the end of our trip. Close to the airport so very noisy and needed earplugs. Drinks at the café were expensive. Overall it is fine, but not as exceptional as we expected. Staff were lovely!

不錯的酒店

酒店鄰近機場，夜晚會聽到飛機升降聲音。 雖與市中心有一段距離，但乘搭的士也很快到達。 職員友善，環境潔淨。 房間舒適，適合獨自旅遊的旅客。
