"The surrounding area is full of good food options and within a short walk to the subway station (Sangmu). I think the location is great since it’s basically equidistant to the KTX, Bus Terminal, and Airport. The breakfast is a buffet style and has excellent variety. The menu changes every day, so there’s always something new to try. When I stay in Gwangju, I prefer to stay here."
