Gwangju's "Boutique Sky Show" motel.

Finally, a stylish motel in Gwangju. This one is the "Boutique Sky Show" (뷰티크 스카이 쇼) in Gwangsan-gu, Ssangam-dong. It has four different types of rooms, ranging from 40,000 to 60,000 won per night during the week and from 60K to 80K on weekends. Each room has a variety of different styles and color combinations. The photos below are from the page on Yanolja, which has given the mand you can find pictures of each room on the motel's website. The VIP is the most expensive room, and there are two different styles: Oriental and Elf, with the motel having four of the former, two of the latter. A sampling from Yanolja:






The next class are the Special Rooms (특실). Yanolja says there are two types, A and B, though I don't know what that refers to. The motel's website has pictures of the ten styles; a sampling:








Finally, a sampling of the Deluxe (디럭스) rooms, of which there are 11 different styles:





One thing I hear when people ask me---or ask on the internet---about love motels is if anyone knows any with tubs, and as you can see the rooms here have whirlpools. If the map on the motel website is to be believed, it's near the Lotte Cinema, accessible by the buses that head to Cheondan.

Like I always say, it's not a luxury room unless there's an umbrella to keep the light off my lilly white skin.

That hotel is probably about a 10 minute walk from Lotte Cinema. It's closer to the 호박 (Pumpkin) Night Club, which has a 26-and-over admittance policy. The hotel also has screen golf, which they won't let you play after 6 PM, as not to disturb the other guests. I haven't been yet, but they are flaky on the phone.

What is it with love motels and having umbrellas in them!?

I dunno, looks fine to me.

I just get a kick out of motels or apartments with more than one floor.
