adequate stay, but some issues

convenient locationnearby restaurantsairport busslow drainingmarked chairshower leakage

The location is quite convenient. the public bus stop to and from the airport sits right outside. lotte duty free is also near. I enjoyed some shopping there. many restaurants are nearby too.

the bathroom sink drained slowly, water lingered for a while after use. the chairs looked old and had noticeable marks on them. the bath and shower leaked onto the bathroom floor from where the side of the tub met the floor.
