posizione super comoda
Pros:

la struttura era in una posizione comodissima, la camera molto accogliente,
la stanza piccolina ma ha tutte le necessità di cui una persona puo aver bisogno, come ciabattine, frigorifero, freezer e anche una cucina e lavatrice.
lo staff molto disponibile, ho avuto un dolore al ginocchio e avevo bisogno di una farmacia e sono stati subito pronti a rispondermi!
se dovessi tornare a seoul ( lo spero ) sicuramente prenotero qui un altra volta, è a pochi metri di distanza dalla funivia che ti porta alla namsan tower ma io purtroppo lho scoperto troppo tardi e non ho fatto in tempo a prenotare.

Cons:

quando ho prenotato diceva ‘vista su citta’ ma non c’era una vera e propria vista dalla finestra, ma non è stato un problema a dir la verità.

Ottima struttura!
Pros:

Ottimo alloggio, piuttosto grande e con tutto il necessario (lavatrice, cucina con piano a induzione e stoviglie). Molti articoli necessari erano disponibili direttamente nella camera o negli spazi dedicati lungo le scale (distributore d'acqua, detersivo, stendino ecc).
Posizione comodissima sia a livello di collegamenti, 5 minuti dalla metro di Myeongdong e da parecchie fermate del bus, che per quanto riguarda street food e ristoranti, presenza di convenience store e shopping in generale.

Cons:

Era già segnalato nella prenotazione, quindi lo sapevamo, ma il residence si trova lungo una strada in salita e le camere sono distribuite su 4 piani di edificio, senza ascensore; da ricordare nel caso si abbiano diversi bagagli ingombranti.

Super ! Je recommande vraiment !
Pros:

Super lieu, que ce soit la chambre double ou les lit superposés. Les logements disposait de cuisine fonctionnelle, et gros plus pour la machine à laver. Les pièces communes sont vraiment bien pensé, avec les parapluies à disposition, la fontaine à eau et le micro-onde. Vraiment je recommande ! Et le personnel est super à l’écoute.

Cons:

Peut être faire de la prévention en rappelant des règles aux occupants car il est vrai que certains font du bruit toute la nuit, et avec l’insonorisation qui n’est pas bonne, on entend tout. Donc juste rappeler des horaires où on baisse le son.
