Having traveled for business to Daegu's Keimyung University Seongseo Campus several times, I always find myself pondering over accommodation choices. Since there are hardly any hotels within walking distance of the university, I look for clean, budget-friendly options within the closest possible driving distance.
During my last business trip, I stayed at both Hotel Craphe Seongseo and Hound Hotel Daegu Seongseo, and I was satisfied with both. So, in this post, I'd like to briefly compare and introduce them.

On-Deo-Malgeum's Final Thoughts
This week, I also have a lecture in Daegu, but this time it's being conducted via Zoom. Daegu has many clean accommodations and attractions, making it a city I'd love to visit again for a business trip. If I go again, I'd probably find myself debating between Hotel Crafe and Hound Hotel once more.
