Nampo Ocean 2 Heaven Hotel&Spa
The room was very clean, large and convenient. The location was central, literally next to the (amazing!) fish market. I was expecting a hotel entrance/lobby while the place felt more like a furnished apartment instead. Didn’t use the spa so can’t comment.

Griffin Bay Hotel
景色がとても素晴らしく、室内も暖かくて快適でした。たまに暑すぎるほど、よく効いていました。 スタッフの方の対応は皆さん優しくて心地よかったです。設備については、コンセントが日本用のものがあり、ヘアアイロンを使えてありがたかったです。しかし、ベッドの土台にある程度の保護はされてありましたが、何度か足をぶつけて痛かったです。
