가족여행으로 갔는데 온천과 관광 둘 다 하기 너무좋았어요!! 사전에 저녁식사 주문하느라 메세지 보내면 답변도 빠르고 가서도 직원분들 모두 친절하고 좋았습니다! 다만 언덕이라 올라갈때 힘들긴 하지만 그만큼 방 뷰는 좋아요

고즈넉한 휴식의 공간

덕분에 고요하고 아늑한 휴식의 시간을 보내고 돌아왔습니다. 화려하지 않지만 충분한 중정(inside courtyard) 도 마음에 들었습니다. 청결하고 아늑한 객실, 대욕장과 실외 노천탕도 좋았습니다. 아침식사도 맘에 들었습니다. 엘리베이터가 있어서 짐을 옮기기에 좋았습니다. 일찍 도착해서 짐을 맡기겠다고 요청했는데 흔쾌히 받아주셨고, 체크아웃후에도 짐을 맡아 주셨습니다. 조용히 이루어지는 모든 과정이 만족스러웠습니다. 곳곳에 늘 보살피는 부지런한 손길이 느껴졌습니다.
