Friendly staff, everything was as expected. Good bed, sleep mode for the air conditioner. If you want a beer or other alcohol, there is a vending machine for that in the foyer. The only thing that wasn't good was the noise of the fridge when in operation. Would definetly come again!

No Wifi security. No stay here anymore.

Wifi is unsecured without password. Biggest no no. Will not stay in Smile anymore. C’mon, isn’t this a common protocol, internet hygiene factor?

3泊しました。連泊の部屋の掃除は３泊ごとなので、滞在中に清掃がはいることはありませんでした。それでもタオルや足ふきマットは新しいものを毎日扉にかけておいてくれます。綺麗好きの人にはどーかわかりませんが、個人的には問題ありませんでした。 フロントの目を通らずエレベータに乗れるのでセキュリティ的にはどうかと思いましたが、使う側からは楽でよかったです。

⭕️優點： 1、床頭有插座 2、窗簾的遮光度非常高 3、冷氣不會直吹床鋪 4、附近三大超商都有 5、有投幣式洗衣機(含洗劑) 6、吹風機不在牆上 7、聯網電視 8、¥1000元的早餐 日式和西式的菜色各有5～8種左右 品項雖然不算豐富 以這個價錢算是挺合理 還有博多特產明太子喔～ ❌唯一的缺點： 廁所的捲筒衛生紙🧻架 在拉取的時候超級吵！！！ 淺眠的人睡夢中會被吵醒的程度 這點真的很糟糕 希望可以改善
