Schönes Hotel für Familien
Pros:

Sehr schöne große saubere Zimmer, perfekt für eine 4-köpfige Familie. Schlafbereich war getrennt. Sehr nah zur U-Bahn Linie 2 und 3 (orange und grüne Linke)

Cons:

Nicht die schönste Ecke, drum herum nur Baustellen. Beim ersten Mal, mussten wir lange suchen, weil es schlecht ausgeschildert war.
Fußweg zum Myeodong war etwas weit mit 20-25min.

Excellent Location and a Comfortable Home-Like Stay
Pros:

The room and bathroom were spacious enough to meet our needs. Overall cleanliness was good, but it could have been better. There was a balcony, but we didn’t use it because it wasn’t very clean. We were happy to see that the balcony door had a mosquito screen, as the room tended to have an odor when closed, so we kept the window open throughout our stay.

The location is excellent, with easy access to major attractions and public transportation. The building also has a 24-hour convenience store and a currency exchange machine, which was very convenient.

Comfortable yet not so convenient.
Pros:

Room size was good.

Cons:

Booking a Taxis was a challenging task every morning. I was staying there for 6 nights and usually we will leave the hotel at approx. 11am ++ , so avg it would took me at least 20-30mins to secure the booking.

The hotel does not provide any storage for the luggage but they do have a coin storage, do make sure you only
need to take it out once, if not, you need to pay again.

Also if you are planning to have take away meal in the room, do take extra Utensils & Cutlery from the restaurants as the hotel room only provide very minimum.

Beklentiyi karşıladı.
Pros:

Myeongdong un merkezinde, metroya 5 dk yürüme mesafesinde yeni bir otel. Kahvaltısı oldukça çeşitli ve yeterli. Binanın içinde konbini de bulunuyor dolayısıyla atıştırmalıklar için oteli terketmenize gerek yok. Teras akşamları harika oluyor ancak yönlendirmeler daha net olmalı. Biz kolayca çıktık ancak bize soran başka misafirler oldu.

Cons:

Signature odada 1 çift ve 1 arkadaş kaldık. Ana yatak odasını cam bir kapı ayırıyor. O kapının üstüne stor perde yapılması daha doğru olur diye düşünüyoruz.

Pros:

地下鉄の駅に近い。ワウパス機で両替ができる。ツインスイートに泊まり広くて快適。洗濯機乾燥機があり多泊するのに便利。部屋は新しくて綺麗。ホテル内にコンビニがある。

Cons:

シャワーのみなので、わがままを言えば浴槽があったら最高。

Lovely central location, perfect size for our week stay
Pros:

Central location, big enough for a family of four, clean and comfortable

Cons:

Only thing to mention would be that it was a shame the second bedroom doesn’t have a door, which means less privacy for those in that bedroom
