First you need to understand if you read any of my ratings they are based upon Jimjilbang’s and showers not family pools. This spa only got a three star overall because the men’s shower only getting 2 stars the Jimjilbang on the other hand gets 4 stars. Here are the details:
Overall very clean, organized and pleasant place to visit but first you should know it is very expensive 22,000 won, however if you are a Pyeongtaek or Asan resident you get a 20% discount.
For a family this maybe a great place because of the water park (based upon other reviews)
Parking is not problem. (Within the mall, spa is on 3rd floor.
Men’s shower-
Nothing special four pools hot, cold, jet, and outdoor. Hot tub is 41.2 and cold was 23.8 not hot or cold at all, this is a big hit for low rating, the pools are very shallow, much more than normal spas. The water has no special properties I think it’s just plain tap water. There is an outdoor area which did bring this rating up some but it is completely in closed with very high walls so there is no view.
There are two lounge chairs, a sauna room, but no steam room.
You will have to keep your towel you are given at he front desk to dry off with, it’s the only one you will get which is ridiculous.
Overall if you are going out to have a good relaxing/cleansing experience avoid this place because of the price, hours (opens at 10:00, very late on my book), lack of pools, and creativity. It was not busy at all but I’m am guessing no one comes for the shower it was built like an after thought.
Jimjilbang-
This is a very nice, clean and large Jimjilbang with many different rooms and areas to relax. Overall this Jimjilbang rates pretty good, it was built for very large crowds so even if it is crowded it will not appear that way and it’s very modern. The variety of rooms is very nice and the best experience is the outdoor foot pool with a view, Unique for a Jimjilbang. There are plenty of pictures that show the variety of rooms so I will not write in detail. But if you do want to come to a place to relax you will find it here, keep in mind this is not a 24 hour and it opens late. Another nice part is if you are into the mall and shopping it is all in one place and Starfield mall is one of the largest malls in this area conveniently located right off the highway.
Family pools reading others reviews I would say if you have a family and want to have a day outing when it’s rainy this maybe the place to visit, but bring your wallet nothing is cheap here even the mall...

Read moreEnjoy getting naked at the mall! Decent and clean bath, spa, and aquapark for those wary from the consumerism onslaught.
Very clean facilities with a few baths to enjoy, though fewer than many other baths I have been to. Aquapark is geared more towards small children. Jjimjilbang (Korean sauna) options are diverse, ranging from herbal room temperature "bulgama," medium temperature specialty wooden rooms, Himalayan salt room, and hotter...
