Anyang Premier Hotel XYM

I had to leave my SUV at a paid lot elsewhere, even though there are several spaces inside. At the entrance, they directed me toward the parking tower and blocked access from inside. The staff were unfriendly, perhaps because this place caters to the market nearby. It’s a motel beside a market, despite a name that sounds more like an expensive hotel. To me, it felt like a market-oriented motel, and I wouldn’t stay here again.

I liked the spacious, clean room and the huge TV. There was popcorn, cup ramen, and jam on the first floor, handy for a quick bite. Parking, though, was a real hassle, with cars squeezed into double and triple spaces. The room stayed hot all night because the heating was so strong, and the waterproof pad didn’t absorb sweat, making it feel even hotter. It was also incredibly dry. I’ll skip a winter visit, but might come back next spring.

There’s a car elevator down to the second basement level, which was useful for parking. The gaming setup had PUBG on the highest settings, but several keyboard keys didn’t work, the left mouse button often failed to register, and the screen went on and off every two hours. For RPGs, I’d suggest choosing a PUBG room with medium settings. I also found one of the disposable supply items already opened, which put me in an awkward spot.

The room was freezing, and I couldn’t tell whether the heater was even on. Cigarette smoke filled the place, probably because there wasn’t any ventilation. I’d meant to go somewhere else but booked this by mistake after mixing up the name, so I ended up going anyway. I didn’t sleep at all. I just had a drink and left. The inside was the complete opposite of the outside.
