The smell of dried roots, ginseng and medicinal herbs drifts through the old streets of central Daegu, where the Yangnyeongsi market has traded traditional medicine since the seventeenth century, and only a few blocks away Dongseong ro fills every evening with young shoppers, cafés and food stalls. Hotel Fox Arthall opened recently on a side lane of exactly this district, at 5 Dongseong ro 2 gil, and in a short time it has collected exceptional guest ratings, between nine point four and nine point eight, for cleanliness, location and friendly service. Its offer is simple and generous for a three star hotel: buffet breakfast, wifi and self parking are free, rooms are soundproofed with blackout curtains and a sitting area, a convenience store and shared microwave cover late snacks, and Banwoldang metro station, where Daegu's two main lines cross, is about seven minutes on foot.
