이 호텔의 시설은 소소하지만 조식은 충격적일 정도로 매력적입니다. 조식에 광주의 매력이 잘 담겨 있습니다. 이 호텔이 제공하는 조식만 생각해도 숙박비용에서 1만원 정도가 절감된다고 생각하면 됩니다.

대박 조식~ 대박 흐뭇~

출장이 잦은 편이라(특히 광주광역시로~) 조식이 제공되는 호텔을 자주 이용합니다 오늘 더메이 호텔에서 제공힌 조식을 받고 감동~~~ 7첩반상을 받은 느낌이였습니다 음식도 정성있게 조리된 상태였고 누룽지까지 챙겨 주는 조식은 난생 처음이였습니다. 덕분에 아주 기분 좋게 아침을 시작했습니다

Wrong bed

They advertise king size beds, but all they have a maybe a queen. I asked the front desk if they made a mistake with the room they gave me, because the bed is not king size. They said that's the only size bed they have in all the rooms. This hotel is in the middle of the party district, so keep that in mind when booking.
