Photos de la chambre ne correspondent pas à la réalité.
Pros:

Lit confortable. Vue de la chambre ok car demande au préalable d'avoir une vue en hauteur sur le cours d'eau.

Cons:

Aucun rangement dans la chambre. Même pas un placard. Personnel d'accueil peu accueillant. Plutôt motel qu'hôtel. Ruelle pour accéder à l'hôtel glauque. quartier aux alentours ultra bruyant. Intérieur de la chambre vétuste (très différent des photos).
Aucun moyen de régler le chauffage.

Regretted booking this accommodation.
Pros:

Other than the location, there was nothing good about the hotel.

Cons:

This place is definitely a LOVE HOTEL, even though we noticed some families checking in during our stay. The condition of the room was quite poor — outdated, with wallpaper that was peeling, dirty, or marked by water stains. While the overall design matches the photos in the listing, it’s clear the images have been heavily edited to make the room appear much newer than it really is. The bathroom was old and unpleasant, and even my husband found it difficult to use comfortably.

Pros:

Definitely the location, surrounded by a lot of restaurants, pubs. You can feel the energy of the area till late.

Cons:

The only cons is the loud noise from the outside during night, but it’s just a small price you have to pay if you want a central location.

Pros:

The pictures are deceiving, I’m not sure some of the pictures displayed that look like they’re part of the property are actually part of the property. The bed sheets may have been clean but they were definitely stained, or they may have just been dirty. There aren’t any amenities that I saw, there’s no restaurant, no gym, and no sauna. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Loved it!
Pros:

I loved location. We almost did not need transportation. You can take a walk to Myeondong or Insadong. A lot of bars and good food around.

Pros:

いろいろと見直して、掃除をして、エアコンクリーニングしてきれいにしたほうが良いと思います。
繁華街のど真ん中にあるホテルなので、私はうるさくてダメでした。
