Find somewhere else that doesn't hate their customers.
Pros:

Location, that is all!

Cons:

Unfriendly hotel staff, apart from the lovely housekeeping staff. They were friendly, said good morning, looked after my room. Staggering that hotel reception staff can't smile, say hello, be helpful, be welcoming. It is your only job to do this for your customers, you know, foreigners that you seem to hate! Suggest you find another career path.

Absolutely disgusting stay. The 'spa' as they call it is just a dark room of hotness. Gross.

But mainly, it is the staff who ruin any and all experience you may like on a holiday - so just avoid.

Pros:

Love the location. 3 mins walk from Jogno 3 ga station. Many places to eat. Plenty of convenience stores around. Enjoyed the free delicious ramen 2100 to 2330. Its rare to get a hotel who provides freebies such as ramen, vending machine drinks, probiotic drink and ice cream. Coin laundry also available. Washing machine is free but bring ur own detergent. Dryer cost ₩2000. Asked for extra pillow-no extra charge.

Cons:

Everything is awesome.

Pros:

Great hotel to explore nearby Insadong and its attractions as well as the royal palaces. The breakfast was just outstanding, best asian hotel breakfast buffet I ever had. The traditional onsen spa was very relaxing and clean. The staff was always very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The room was a bit small and the bed a bit hard.

Pros:

The location is great with many main sights within walking distance. The room had everything I needed. The spa was very relaxing and there were not many people every time I went. It was really nice to have a washing machine available, and it worked without problems. The lobby and the hallways also feel very clean and I liked the general vibe a lot.

Cons:

The mattress was a bit hard for me.

Pros:

海外にいながら大浴場を使えるのはホッとする瞬間で、疲れも取れてよかったです。他にも日系のホテルだと諸々ストレスが少ないので快適にすごせました。

韓屋村などの観光に便利な日系ビジネスホテル
Pros:

日本のビジネスホテルに近いサービスが受けられる。ウェルカムドリンクやコーヒー、アイスなどの無料サービスが充実。温泉があり、洗濯乾燥機もあったのが良かった。地下鉄駅や空港リムジンバスも徒歩10分以内。

Cons:

部屋によっては臭いが気になるよう。乾燥機は有料でした。ホテル周りの治安は夜でもそれほど問題なさそうだったが、日本の基準で綺麗な地区ではないかなと思いました。
