Pros:

The rooms are small, but exceptionally clean and well-equipped. You’ll find air conditioning, a hair dryer, toiletries, and a phone charger in them. Guests also have access to a shared kitchen with a coffee machine, instant soups, a washing machine, and a dryer. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and welcoming throughout the entire stay. The location is excellent, just a few steps from the subway station. I really enjoyed my stay.

Cons:

Noise from the street but was acceptable.

また泊まりたいです!ありがとうございました☺︎
Pros:

部屋が思っていたよりも広かったです。
スタッフも優しくて、ラーメンやコーヒー、お茶をいつでも貰えたので嬉しかったです!
屋上のテラスでラーメンを食べるのが最高でした☺︎
口コミを書くと可愛いマグネットも貰えました♩

トイレは換気扇を回していても常に匂いがしました。
でもドアを閉めていれば部屋は臭わないので、トイレやお風呂の時以外は気になりませんでした。

We had a room on the rooftop, that was amazing waking up and getting to open the curtain and see a beautiful view. It is very close to the station only a short walk and you will be able to travel to wherever in Seoul.

Cons:

Nothing

安さに満足
Pros:

スタッフの方の対応が丁寧で親切でとても良かったです。
日本語が話せるスタッフもいて安心です。
袋麺が無料で食べられるのもよい。
部屋に冷蔵庫もあります。
フロントにお願いするとタオル交換してもらえます。

Cons:

値段がお安いので当然なのですが部屋は狭いです。
他の方も書いていますが、シャワーとトイレが一緒なのですがほとんど仕切りがないため、シャワーを浴びるとトイレがびしょ濡れになります。
シャワールームの換気扇が弱いのか、外出中は換気扇が止まってしまうせいもあり、なかなか乾きませんでした。

Pros:

地點非常好,附近相當熱鬧,周邊有很多當地小吃與餐廳,步行就可以到廣藏市場,生活機能很方便。以位在鬧區的位置來說,價格其實算是相當划算。櫃檯人員英文溝通沒有問題,也很願意協助旅客需求,服務態度很好。

Cons:

房間空間稍微偏小,隔音也比較一般。比較可惜的是,這次入住時隔壁房似乎住了代購業者,每天凌晨約2點出門、清晨5點左右回來,進出時會有明顯聲響。另外半夜在房內聊天的音量也偏大,噪音持續到深夜與清晨,對休息造成一些影響。很感謝櫃檯人員幫忙寫紙條提醒對方降低音量並協助處理。

整體來說,地點與價格仍然是很大的優勢,如果隔音或住客狀況能再改善,住宿體驗會更好。

Pros:

生活でスタッフが親切でした!ロケーションも良かったです。

Cons:

窓がない部屋で換気ができなかった。レセプションのすぐ横の部屋で、目の前に誰でも使えるテーブルと椅子が置かれていたが、真夜中まで誰かが大声で話したり椅子を引いたり音楽を流したり、静かな環境とは言えなかった。
