receptionist's attitude was very bad.The front staff interrupts people in the middle of conversation and doesn't listen to the end. Especially the female staff. It's fine to be assertive, but you should listen to the customer's story to the end.It's a shame as the location is good.

Scammer hotel.When I checked in, they told me the check out time will be on 12pm. However when I checked out, they told me the check out time that day was 11am. I was never told about this and they charged me extra as I “late check out”( but I never knew about this special check out time requirement lol).I also did double check with the front desk before checking out that day, she also said if I checked out before 1pm it’s free. Apparently they are scamming tourists extra by using a different checkout time as an excuse. Never come back again!

I will never return to this hotel again. The service here is extremely bad. Hotel Samjung was recommended by a friend as a 4-star hotel, so I booked a room here. However, my partner and I's experience at the hotel was only worth 0-stars. The hotel receptionist was unprofessional and unprofessional, making our check-in, checkout and payment process extremely long. Although we had paid in advance and asked to note down the necessary information, the next day another receptionist asked us to provide the information again and pay again. The hotel receptionist's working process is extremely bad, there is no information stored in the system or handover of work between receptionists. Therefore, they bothered us many times with the same problem, affecting our work. Those were extremely bad experiences.

The hotel reception staff is extremely bad. Check-in takes a long time, while passports have been photocopied but they still ask guests to show them many times. Besides, the reception staff is always indifferent and makes guests wait for a long time.Extending the stay in the room also takes a long time. We clearly wrote down the guest's name, room number and next stay date so that the staff can calculate the amount to pay. After paying, the next day we had to work with them twice: in the morning and at noon because they said we paid for less days. So they didn't read the note about the guest's name, room number, and extension date that we gave? The money issue is not important but the staff is very bad, making us waste a lot of time having to deal with them many times. While this is their daily job and is not difficult at all.The hotel reception staff need to be changed and better trained in listening, speaking, reading and understanding. Extremely bad experience, we will not return to this hotel again.

One person stayed for two nights.The quality of the front desk service was perfect and I was able to check in smoothly.However, when I checked my credit card statement later, I found that twice the amount I had expected had been debited, so I emailed the hotel to that effect. However, no matter how long I waited, there was no reply, and when I tried to send it again, it was blocked. This time I used it on repeat.. I liked it and used it regularly during my stay. I was so shocked that I decided to post this because I thought it was necessary to publicize the hotel's sloppy management policies.

shortcoming :The uphill climb to the hotel was very tiring, and I was afraid of falling when going downhill.The room is small, the TV is also small, the bed is too hard, the pillows are too soft and it's hard to sleep on, the air conditioning system is very loud, it gets hot and cold, and sometimes wakes me up in the middle of the night.advantage :The room was clean,The location is excellent. There are Yanzhou subway station and buses, and there are supermarkets on both sides of the main road.
