"Le seul point positif l'emplacement mais n'espérez pas bien dormir dans cet hôtel, une odeur d'égout désagré"

2.0

L'emplacement dans la ville

Être au 5eme étage sans ascenseur car en panne, chaleur accablante au 5eme étage et encore plus dans la chambre. Du bruit jusqu'à 2h voir 3h du matin. Le choix du petit déjeuner très limité, très petit, pas adapter au nombre de la clientèle. Tout le monde se marchait dessus. Odeur d'égout dans la salle de bain.

"새벽까지 너무 시끄러움"

3.0

위치는 나쁘지 않았어요 무거운 짐이 없으면 괜찮아요

새벽 3~4시까 밖에서 노래 틀고 펍 운영해서 잠을 설쳤어요 귀마개도 뚫고 들어올정도였어요
