Pros:

La ubicación es muy buena si quieres comprar material fotográfico, hay muchas tiendas cerca y puedes ir caminando. El hotel está limpio y el personal muy atento y agradable. Nuestra habitación tenía la temática de Hello Kitty.

Cons:

Los colchones tienen una firmeza a la que no estoy acostumbrada y me resultaron algo duros.

Un lieu de repos au plein coeur de Seoul
Pros:

Le personnel était très aimable, beaucoup de choses mises à disposition et un emplacement 5 étoiles.

Cons:

Lit et oreillers un poil durs, fenêtre qui s’entrouvre et rend l’aération compliquée.

Pros:

The place was clean and somehow close to a metro station.

Cons:

When I booked the room it said two single beds, not great but that was the situation. When we got to the room there was only a small bed and the other one was just a matress on the floor in an attic. Also both matresses were really hard so there was no way to get a decent sleep. The only good part is that it was only for a night.

Pros:

We stayed for 15 days, and the experience couldn’t have been better. The staff treated us very well and were incredibly kind and friendly. Our room was cleaned every day, and we also had the option to have dinner in the lounge without any problem.

The views from our room were incredible, and the hotel is very well connected to the rest of the city. Without a doubt, if we come back to Seoul, we will stay here again.

Thank you so much for everything! ❤️

Décevant, pas du tout du niveau 3 étoiles attendu… cher pour les prestations délivrées.
Pros:

L’emplacement était celui qui nous convenait

Cons:

Clim ultra bruyante. Là plus petite douche que j’ai vu de ma vie (regardez la photo!). Lit pas confortable du tout.
