청결끝판왕호텔
청결로 치면 이제까지 묵은 호텔중 제일입니다. 정말 객실클리닝 담당자분들 칭찬 드려요. So wonderful with the room tidying and even towels smell so cleaned. Nothing complain about cleaning. 아 그리고 프런트 분들 너무 친절하셔서 다시 또 가고 싶은 마음이에요

가족여행으로 추천합니다.
아늑하고 4성급에 걸맞는 편의시설과 서비스를 제공 받았습니다:)
전체적으로 깨끗하고 만족했어요.
조식도 뭐하나 빠짐없이 맛있었고 수영장 온수풀도 딱 좋았습니다. 다만 물 깊이가 다소 깊어 어린 아이들은 꼭 안전장비를 하고 신경을 써야 할거 같아요. 별도로 금액을 지불해야하는 사우나는 물온도가 순간적으로 높아져서 너무 놀래서 탕에서 나올만큼 놀랬지만 전체적으로 깔끔했습니다.
