Daegu Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Second time staying here this year. Walking distance from shinsegae department store makes it attractive despite not having too many dining options in the immediate area. Breakfast is great, room’s clean. Parking is limited and you may have to park at the parking tower, which makes it more difficult to grab your belongings if you’ve forgotten something"

"Very decent for a mid-range hotel. The room was small but had everything we needed, including little table with seats for dining/chilling. Bed was big and comfy and the bathroom was almost the same size as the entire room. They only provide small towels, which wasn’t a major problem, but would be nice to have a regular sized towels as well. Super polite staff. Location is a bit away from the main shopping area, but it’s close to a metro station with frequent trains. Would stay again if in Daegu. "

"깨끗하고 친절하고 다 좋았습니다. 그러나 하얀 일회용 슬리퍼랑 실내 바닥이 같은 재질이라 물방울 조금이라도 있으면 완전 미끄러집니다. 4일 있는 동안 3번정도 세면대에 물때문에 넘어질 위기를 많이 겪고 마지막 체크 아웃라는데 새벽에 일어나 스타일리쉬에거 흘러 나온 물이 잠결에 안보여 완전 꺽어질 정도로 미끄러졌습니다. 다리도 완전히 꺾이고 뼈 안다칠라 그러다 엉덩방아를 심하게 찧어습니다. 급하게 씻고 나오느라 당시는 몰랐는데 시간이 지나면서 달걀 만하던게 복숭아 만한 혹이 엉덩이와 사타구니사이에 있어 앉지도 못하고 너무 힘이듭니다. 오늘 일어난 일이라 지금도 의자에 안질 못합니다. 나오면서 다른말 안하고 다른 손님들 위해 바닥이나 슬리퍼나 둘중 하나는 꼭 바꾸시라 의견드렸습니다. 뇌진탕 걸리기 딱입니다. 정말 위험합니다. 다만 스텝들 친절했고 호텔은 참 깨끗했습니다. "
