However, the window is useless so that the room looks like too tight.

I stayed at Nares Minitel and was very satisfied. The rooms are clean, tidy, and comfortable — everything is designed for guest convenience. The staff is polite and always ready to help; you can really feel their care for each customer.
A special bonus is the laundry room on the ground floor, which is very convenient, especially for long stays.
It has a quiet atmosphere, a good location, and reasonable prices. I will definitely come back again and recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and affordable place to stay.

The location is conveniently located in the heart of Chungjang-ro, close to the subway station.
It's clean and well-maintained.
The rooftop restaurant, Suksu, is also excellent.
They're offering a free house wine event, so it's worth taking advantage of it.

AAriellyI haven't slept so good in ages!
Ngl, otw to the building, we passed a couple hotel/motels and I got worried that maybe the pictures wouldn't match with current conditions. That heavens this wasn't the case! The property is set back a tiny but from the road it's on, allowing for parking right in the front.
The property is very clean, simple, and pretty. It's also very conveniently and directly across the street from a convenience store (a mere 30sec walk).
The gentleman who manned the front desk during my stay was sweet and diligent. Even though there wasn't really any view from my room's window, I did face the sunrise and got healing rays. The room layout is simple and spacious, easily fitting 1-2 people comfortably.
The bathroom, however, boy do I have a pickle with that. 1. Loved the toilet!! 2. The sink was also great. 3. But the shower. The shower was a battleground. The shower-head was too big for the holder that allows you to adjust the height and position of the shower-head. The fixed wall-mount for the shower-head sits up too high and the water sprays as if its attacking you. I spent the first 8 minutes just trying to defeat the water boss! To which I finally found a solution: take the shower-head and drape the cord behind the body wash, shampoo, and conditioner containers. Then rest the head behind the overhead shower-head's pole for support and direction the shower-head where you like. Goodness gracious it was a battle I did not expect.
Besides the shower battle, everything else was so great. I'd definitely stay at Summit again should I every travel the SW of S.Korea again.
KKliTorThere were 15 storeys in our hotel. Our room was on the second floor. It was quite big. There was one double bed, two single beds, a bathroom and a balcony in it. The view from the balcony was unforgettable – serene infinite sea and lush greenery.
There was a big restaurant in our hotel. We had our breakfast there. The food at the restaurant was delicious and varied.
There were two large swimming pools in the hotel. One swimming pool was only for adults, however, the other swimming pool was for everyone. By the swimming pools there were bars where we could get snacks and ice-cream. There was also a gym with a sauna, a small tennis court and a gift shop in our hotel.
I really liked our holiday in Malta and I hope that one day we will go back there!
GGuest UserPros
Excellent Location: The hotel is conveniently located near the metro line, making it easy to access the airport and main train station.
Soundproofing: The soundproofing is impressive, allowing for a restful night’s sleep without disturbances from outside noise.
Great Dining Options: There are plenty of good food options nearby, adding to the overall experience.
Cons
Bright Control Panel Lights: The orange light from the temperature control panel is excessively bright at night. Additionally, the centralized light control panel emits a very bright blue light. Even after turning off the main lights, these panels create a glowing ambiance that can be quite annoying. In Japan, similar panels allow users to turn off the lights on the control itself, which would be an improvement here.
Conclusion
Overall, while the location, soundproofing, and dining options are excellent, the overly bright control panel lights detract from an otherwise enjoyable stay. I hope the management considers making adjustments to enhance guest comfort.
GGuest UserThe location is good and the rooms and big and clean. Reception is friendly. However the hotel are old and the decor is very 80s. My main issue is that the amenities advertised in yhe platform are not available. There is no cafe or restaurant really, no gym is included. There is a private gym at on dog the floors of the building but this is not a hotel amenity. If I search for hotels with a gym oh your app and I see photos of the gym, expected it to be a hotel amenity. I know how to buy a day pass for any gym myself (not even a special price or voucher is given so it is definitely a fake advertisement).
XXing22The accommodation was clean and the interior was remodeled well, so it was neat and pretty. If the standard of hotels in the country, no, the whole world, is this good, I don't think I have to worry about traveling. The owner is kind and the hotel feels well-maintained. It was also nice that there was a coffee machine in the lobby. If you close the water drain in the bathroom sink, you can stop smelling the old pipes. Even without that, the smell doesn't enter the room. The location was good for going to Dongmyeong-dong and by ACC bus or taxi, and there was a bus to the 518 Democracy Cemetery right away, and anyway, it was right in front of Gwangju Station, so transportation was good. I think I'll stay here next time I come to Gwangju. I stayed for several nights, but they gave me plenty of water and towels, and maybe because there weren't many people, they upgraded my room, which I was very grateful for. It's a quiet and clean hotel.
SSarahBraithwaite77Stayed for 4 nights in private room. Small but compact room with drawers and shelves for storage. Good hot working shower. Comfortable beds and efficient air con and fan. Plenty of food options and shops around as close to the university and good transport links to major attractions. Shared kitchen, small but everything you need. Due to this being shared, it was not always the cleanest as not everyone takes responsibility to clean after themselves. Hosts were LOVELY. Really friendly and always around for a chat. We sat with them for dinner one evening and we're given local fruits to try. Cheap and convenient.
DDanielle FavalelliHotel situé proche arrêt de bus en venant du terminal des bus.,ainsi que pour faire les visites.Chambre correcte pour une personne ,propre,bonne literie par contre décoration surchargée ce qui rend la chambre plus petite,le plus le fauteuil de massage bien qu'un peu défoncé fonctionne très bien à condition de savoir le mettre en route car pas de notice en anglais. Le lendemain le ménage n'était pas fait (1janvier?) mais à la réception j'ai eu des disettes de café et bouteilles d'eau quand le soir j'ai ete demander.
MmastergonThe location was good, there were many restaurants and convenience stores nearby. The breakfast was good, and the room was nice. However, the smell of cigarettes from the lower floor came straight into the bathroom.
GGuest UserAlthough it was a little old, it was overall a satisfactory accommodation. Mano is a place with motels and hotels nearby, and there are many restaurants, so it is a good location.
첫첫사랑의추억The lighting is a bit dark everywhere in a good motel. However, it is close to the Kim Dae-jung Convention Center in location. It is very good to take the subway and there are a lot of food around.
