Удобное расположение, хорошая цена:-)
Pros:

Отличное расположение, удобно добраться из аэропорта Инчхон, автобус №6011 останавливается напротив гостиницы (стоимость проезда 17 000 вон). Рядом есть станция метро, можно быстро добраться до центра города. Рядом с гостиницей круглосуточные магазины, закусочные, кофейни, очень много разнообразных ресторанов корейской кухни .

Cons:

Номер слишком маленький и темный, небольшое окно к комнате. Нет возможности регулировать температуру в номере (общая система кондиционирования), в номере было очень жарко. Нет шкафа для одежды.

A stylish stay in the Sungshin area.
Pros:

Friendly, helpful staff. Instructions in english and korean. Room was very stylish. Easy walk to metro or city busses.

The instructions said the staff could help with understanding local transportation. I didnt need this, but it would be nice for people unfamiliar with getting around in Seoul.

Cons:

Aircon struggled to keep up, but it was an insanely hot week in Seoul.
