One night was one too many
Pros:

Good location

Cons:

Dirty, no storage for clothes, desk was filled with computer paraphernalia as well as TV. Silver tape was coming away from bathroom, broken sink, mattress rock hard, carpet on stairway masked with sellotape, desk staff who we spoke to in morning coukdnt understand any English when we handed in the key and left for another hotel. Got photos if you want to see. Hotel did contact us as I thought I'd left my purse there, and asked if we'd left, I said the bed was too hard and generally shabby. Also chunk out of bath.

Nice staff and very accomodating .
Pros:

Basic hotel, nothing fancy but very clean and large rooms. Beds felt stiff (nothing like cushy American mattress), but to my surprise very comfortable and I have neck issues. Slept well there. Because hotel was so clean , I didn't care for any amenities. thank you.

Nice hotel conveniently located close to the metro and station
Pros:

The hotel is very close to the main central station. The room is basic but clean, and the bathroom as well. The neighbourhood is safe and vibrant, with several restaurants nearby. There is a metro station very close to the hotel, and the central station can be reached in about 10 minutes on foot. The lady at the reception only speaks korean, but is very helpful. The toilet is clean

Cons:

this is a very basic hotel. Do not expect luxury. It is conveniently located.
