The facilities in the accommodation room are very old-fashioned, and old TVs and set-top wiring are exposed to the mess.

It's nice to have a common facility (public kitchen, laundry/dryer) with time constraints other than accommodation. Breakfast is self-contained, including bread, eggs, cereal, milk, coffee, and ramen.

The price is very good. You get breakfast, free laundry. The bed can warm itself up. I didn’t use the wi-fi because it was too slow. But a great place to stay at. It is a bit on the old side, but then again it has a good price.

I can’t think of anything major that I didn’t like

The facilities were amazing, food was provided for breakfast, instant coffee by the truckloads and a washing machine and dryer to be used for free. This is one of the best value accommodations I have stayed in, in South Korea

A few things in our room weren't perfectly clean (found a few hairs and a sticky spot in the floor).

It was a great hotel, with a nice, clean breakfast area and laundry facilities. They replaced our water bottles and towels each day. Very happy with the space.

The bathroom was not very clean. It needs a good spray down with bleach.

It is located in the Sangmu district with plenty of shopping and entertainment nearby. Walking distance to numerous restaurants and cafes. They provide breakfast but I opted for local food instead. It is quiet and close to the Uncheon subway station as well as many bus routes and the Uncheon reservoir which is a gorgeous place to go for a walk and see nature in the middle of the city.

I have trouble getting in and out of a tub, so a walk-in shower would be better. English language instructions for the induction cook-top and the laundry machines would be useful.

The breakfast offer was excellent, although I couldn't figure out how to use the induction stove so I wasn't able to take advantage of the eggs. Two laundry machines and a dryer, with detergent supplied, was fantastic. I was there for a week, so used these machines a couple of times, very handy and appreciated. Staff were helpful when I needed a taxi. Convenience stores only a short walk away. Starbucks is around the corner.

My room was close to the breakfast and laundry room so that I could hear the sounds in the morning and at night. The walls are pretty thin so that I heard new arriving guests walking through the hallway. Besides that is the door of the room at first opened so that a lot of mosquitos got into my room. The bathroom is spacious but not the most modern one - having a bath tub with stains at there. Note: The personal can’t speak English - but it works with Papago as a Translator.

The motel is at a nice location and has an elevator. My room was spacious and came with a face mask, body and shower lotions. They serve free breakfast (cereals, toast with strawberry jam, milk, tea, coffee, orange juice, and eggs/ ramen). At the same room it is even possible to wash and dry the laundry for free. The hotel even allowed me to keep my luggage for a few days there by storing it at the breakfast room.

Good value. Even though the hotel entrance was modest, the inside was modern and clean. The room was comfortable and decent size. Hotel staff kindly lent me a USB charger because I left mine at home. They gave a complimentary full toiletries kit on arrival in addition to the soaps already in the room. Breakfast was simple and "OK", not many places give any breakfast.

The bathroom needs refurbishing and the noise from the metalworking outside the room was a bit annoying.

The location was fine for transport links and there is a good selection of restaurants nearby.

I didn't really liked that there was no one at the counter. Only when I arrived to let me check in. Afterwards there was nobody to be seen. It didn't bother me that much but sometimes I just felt like I didn't had a place to go to if I had a question

For a motel it was very good! It was cheap and it is noticeable why but it is a perfect stay for a couple of days. The room is very clean and broad. You have everything you need there and they provide the basic necessities. There was also breakfast! don't expect one as in a hotel but for me I was just happy to have something to eat before my day.

Well lighted corridors but over all its okay.

Everything went well with my stay at Athene Motel. Its near the May 18 Memorial Park and Uncheon Reservoir, there are 2 bus stops near and 1 train station that makes it accessible. The room is clean and spacious for one person. The hosts are kind, they let me store my luggage even after check out and come back for it. The free breakfast is basic but good. Recommended when you go to Gwangju.

It was convenient, and provided basic necessities such as bathroom, breakfast, and a washing machine

Good price for a weekend night. Free bread with jam was good.

The lady was very surprised to see me, I don’t know why, and wasn’t very welcoming. She also couldn’t speak much English and she didn’t tell me anything about breakfast, which was included with the room. The breakfast table was on the floor below mine so I wasn’t sure if I could eat there or not. But it was also my fault since I didn’t ask for more info. The overall vibe is the one of a motel where you go to “”meet”” people just for a few hours or a night, but the room was actually nice.

Everything was good. Great position. They gave me a bag with a lot of stuff like toothpaste, shampoo, etc (also condoms lol). I was given a double room even though I paid for a single one. They had everything you could possibly need in a hotel room.

Not very clean

It was quite old and didn’t seem like maintained well

Stayed in March 2024

The pillows were quite hard. The windows are pretty thin, so some noise and cold came in from there. Also even though the hotel is non-smoking, there was someone smoking probably in the room next to us and the smell came to our room.

Great value for price! Breakfast was simple but good: eggs, bread, cereal, juice and coffee. Subway station is nearby, easy check-in and check-out. Good facilities, water and microwave in the hallway and free laundry.
