My wonderful stay at Sejong Hotel Myeondong
Pros:

Very clean, spacious room n bathroom.. Extra charging cables if needed.. Very friendly and helpful staff... during my last trip, my sis could not walk and a very kind staff lent us a wheelchair.. It was really useful and we were grateful for the kind gesture.. a very comfortable stay considering it was my 3rd stay.. Will always go back...overall is a huge thumbs up 👍

Cons:

The rooms are abit dated.. Laundry room is small but sufficient.. Wish there is a sofa to sit ard n wait if we would like to..
