Enter the most expensive roomThe staff's attitude was not bad at all. In fact, it's pitiful that even though he's a part-time worker, he's apologizing for the lack of equipment.WiFi doesn't reach inside the room. I couldn't use the WiFi unless I went next to the entrance door of the room near the hallway.The washlet in the toilet was broken and the nozzle wouldn't extend and the water would just drip out.There is a sauna room, but the temperature is 30 degrees.The bath jacuzzi also doesn't work.The karaoke room has been out of order for a long time and all the rooms have been destroyed, and there seems to be no hope that it will be repaired in the future.Only one 500ml bottle of service mineral water per room ()I feel like most other love hotels have all-you-can-drink drink bars, juices, and alcohol, but not here at all lolThe position of the massage chair in the room puts pressure on the flow of people walking, and it's easy to bump your leg against the glass-board dining table (I bumped into it nearly 10 times).Thoughts/I was kind of disappointed overall. I might not go unless the equipment is restored.

We stayed in September. It's a very filthy hotel with dust everywhere and most places you can't touch. Even though I spent over an hour wiping down everything, I couldn't get everything clean, so I had no choice but to be patient and stay the night. Due to its nature as a love hotel, it was designed without windows, but we opened the cover to fully open the windows. When I went to sleep, I left the door slightly open, so mosquitoes and insects came in and bit me while I slept, but it was better than sleeping with the door closed, so I had no choice. Everything was dirty, so I had to clean the sink and bath myself. It's so filthy that it's impossible to use it as is. Needless to say, I will never use it again.

Originally it was so bad that I couldn't give it a star. Since I travel long distances by car, I sometimes use love hotels because of the convenience of parking and location. All of them have specifications that are safe for general customers, but this time it was beyond the worst and I was shocked. The building is old, so the bathroom door is misaligned and won't close, and the walls and ceiling are torn, so I think it can't be helped, but the only cleaning inside the room is probably changing the sheets and towels and trash can, and the cup under the sterilized sticker is toothpaste. rest? It was sticky and disgusting, there was garbage scattered all over the floor, spider webs were hanging down, and above all, there was a strong smell of mold and dust that probably hadn't been cleaned in years. I was at full blast, but the smell was so strong that I couldn't sleep properly, and I ended up having an asthma attack, which was really bad. The only saving grace was that the woman at the reception was very friendly.This is the worst hotel.
