I think it's inevitable that the facilities are outdated, but the breakfast was very disappointing compared to other Kensington locations.

I went to Ashley during the day today. I visited to solve sushi and dessert together. When I entered around 1:13, I said that it was break time at 3 o'clock, so I said I wouldn't be able to supply new food after 2 o'clock, so I said okay. Sushi Corner BarAs I went, there were a few things prepared, including aged kimchi and shrimp, and there was no sushi with fish on it. Only a few customers went back and forth waiting for fish sushi like me...It didn't come out even after 1:30, so when I asked, they said they had to wait a long time due to a lot of orders, but no other action was taken. The conclusion is that from 1:13 to 2 o'clock, I'll eat fish sushi onceNo additional supply has been made. The dessert section also has other menu names such as cheesecake and cupcake, but there was nothing that came out a few times around 1:40. Choco K and Shine Muscat. There was one moreI eat something else because it's a waste of money, but I was constantly angry and annoyed while eating. After that, I came home and ran reviews on Google and Naver and found a similar kind of writing to constant claims since 3 years ago. Looking at this, there seems to be no improvement. So if you want to go, think about it I went to Ashley during the day today. I visited to have sushi and dessert together. When I entered around 1:13, I was told that 3:00 was the break time and no new food would be served after 2:00, so I agreed. Sushi corner barWhen I went there, there were a few things prepared besides old kimchi and shrimp, but there was no sushi with fish on it at all. A few customers went back and forth to see if they were waiting for fish sushi like me... and it didn't come out even after 1:30, so I asked and no other action was taken other than being told that there was a lot of orders and I would have to wait a long time. In conclusion, eat fish sushi once from 1:13 to 2 p.m.There was no additional supply either. The dessert section also has other menu items such as cheesecake and cupcakes, but no matter how many times I went around 1:40, nothing came out. There was one more thing besides Chocolate K and Shine Muscat (faded).I felt like it was a waste of money so I ate something else, but I was still angry and irritated while eating. After that, when I got home and went to Google and Naver to write a review, I found similar posts with consistent complaints from three years ago. Looking at this, it seems like the improvement has gone by the wayside. So if you are thinking of going, think about it.

- I went to Kensington Resort in Gyeongju with my child. Let’s take a look at the reviews to see what kind of place it is~~!!- The first room I entered was a bit shocking. They upgraded me because I wanted an ondol room, but the floor was sticky as not many people used the ondol room, and there was something on the refrigerator handle. The bedding also didn't look very clean. 😡 If this is going to happen, why don’t you say it’s an upgrade?- In the end, I just asked for a bed room and moved to another room. At least the bed room is better haha. It is said that only some of the renovated rooms that I saw on the reservation screen are like that. Beware of exaggerated advertisements on the reservation screen, and be sure to check when making a reservation!- The resort's backyard was much more satisfying than the guest rooms. Haha, a cute milestone ^^ A farm village where rabbits live. Rabbit, let’s eat carrots 🥕- Kids world has a sand playground and slides that are great for children. It looks like grilled meat at Garden BBQ would be delicious, but the rental fee is 40,000 won.- There is a kids cafe next to the lobby on the first floor, but it is small. I bought an all-day ticket [12,900 won for children, 3,900 won for adults] to keep using it in between. There isn't much to do, but my child is having a great time.- When I booked my stay here, I decided to include Ashley Queens tickets for two. I've been to Ashley a lot, but I wonder what Queens is like haha.- Hmm... Ashley Queens has a lot of variety, but it doesn't have a very delicious menu. ㅠㅠ The Philly cheese steak, which was delicious, is gone as soon as it comes out and doesn't seem to be refilled often.- I think it's better to have a lot of delicious food even if there aren't many types! 😅- The location is a bit far from Bomun Lake.- It is adjacent to Hanwha Resort like a complex. I think your child will really enjoy the Pororo-themed water park at Hanwha Resort. The complex looks prettier at night haha.

There are many remodeled rooms, so the rooms are good for the price. The photo shows it as if it is a residence, but cooking is not allowed, so you should be careful about this.
