Highly recommend if you don’t mind it being slightly further from touristy places.
Pros:

The hotel was very comfortable. I had a spacious room designed for three people, but I was staying alone as the others rooms was full. The hotel was clean, with daily housekeeping provided. The location was convenient, with cafes, restaurants, fast food options, and a convenience store all nearby. The airport bus stops directly in front of the hotel, and the journey takes about an hour. The staff were also very friendly and helpful.

As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe during my stay. The neighborhood was quiet and secure, which I really appreciated—especially after visiting busier areas in Seoul that can get quite crowded at night. This location offered a more peaceful, non-touristy atmosphere with fewer crowds and a calm, relaxed vibe.

Cons:

The room I stayed in, which was designed for three people, might feel a bit small depending on your expectations. The hotel is also slightly farther from the city center, but getting around wasn’t an issue—ride-hailing services were affordable, and there are nearby metro and bus stations for easy access. Majority of the touristy shopping sites such as Myeongdong and Hongdae might take around 45 mins via metro and bus from the hotel.

Pros:

Though not close to any spas. As Seoul is known for. Was within walking distance to restaurants, stores and a nice neighborhood outdoor market. The staff were accomodating and gracious. They gave us adequate directions to local, walking distance things to do, stored our bags till check in and lent us phone chargers with local plugs. The room was modern, and simple. Clean enough and basic for a quick overnight stay. The heated toilet seat was a highlight! They give new, wrapped room slippers which was great. The cafe drinks were good. We did not eat there. But ate out. There are lot's of neighborhood restaurants of good quality. We bought round trip bus shuttle tickets at the airport and the hotel gave us the schedule. It was surprisingly easy to get dropped off in front of the hotel, then get back to the airport from the pickup location across the street. The bus ride is one hour door to door. They run on time. For a basic stay. This place did the trick.

Cons:

I had to ask for our sheets to be replaced due to some strange purple stains on one and a hair on the sheets of the other bed. I always check bedding and make sure the bedding at all hotels is super clean. For a booking of two. They only gave us towels for one and I had to request more.

충격적인 호텔입니다.
Pros:

없습니다.

Cons:

어메니티가 없습니다.
샴푸 바디워시 린스가 기본적으로 비누 입니다. 비누도 포장된 일회용품이 아니라 뜯어져있는 상태이며, 이런 곳은 처음봅니다.
또한 2인 숙박에 수건이 3장으로 추가 요청을 하니 1장당 2,000원 비용이 있습니다.
수건 추가금 받는 호텔도 처음이며 2인에 기본 4장은 기본 아닌가요?
창틀 및 바닥에 먼지와 머리카락이 덕지덕지 있으며, 욕실 샤워부스 바닥/벽면부는 곰팡이 관리를 안하는지 아쉽습니다.

지인 출장으로 예약해준 호텔에 욕만 더럽게 먹었네요.

Business Hotel, gute Lage
Pros:

Die Lage ist gut, insbesondere die Verkehrsanbindung. Direkt vor dem Hotel befindet sich die Haltestelle des Flughafenbusses. Das Hotel ist sehr sauber. Das Badezimmer ist geräumig und gut ausgestattet.

Cons:

Im Zimmer gibt es keine Möglichkeit, Kleidung zu verstauen. Es gibt weder eine Kommode noch einen Kleiderschrank. Man muss wirklich aus dem Koffer leben. Das ist für einen langen Aufenthalt nicht spaßig.

A real shame
Pros:

I don’t have much to say about this hotel, except that the staff were very friendly and spoke excellent English.

Cons:

I think they’re still living off the list that Monocle made in 2017, where they were featured as one of the best hotels in the world and you can see it everywhere. I’ve stayed at many hotels from that list, and this one has nothing to do with that level of quality.

Dirty beds, dust and hair everywhere, scratched walls, and carpets full of stains. The bathrobes have clearly seen better days,frayed and stained and the amenities were very limited.

The rooftop, which probably used to be lively at some point, is now just a dark, cluttered space filled with random stuff.

In short, I believe this hotel used to be good (the building itself has a lot of potential), but nowadays, whether it’s due to a change in management or simple neglect, it just feels run down.

A real shame, because the staff were genuinely kind and helpful throughout my stay.

Pros:

위치는 편했고, 직원분들 친절했어요.

Cons:

연휴라서 가격이 좀 비싼 편이었는데 비해 청소상태가 별로였어요. 그리고 메인 도로쪽 방은 새벽에 시끄러웠어요. 만약 방을 예약하신다면 큰길쪽은 피해서 잡으시면 괜찮을 거예요.

Pros:

The hotel is right in front of the airport bus. Delicious breakfast that changes each day. convenient location for public transport.

Cons:

The hotel needs some renovation, and in fact while staying there, some floors were under renovation. The location is very far from most tourist attractions, so you need to travel about 1 hour per direction to reach most tourists' points of interest.
