Scomodo e spiacevole
Pros:

L’unica nota positiva è la posizione molto centrale della struttura

Cons:

Praticamente tutto il resto.
Lo staff era molto disinteressato alle nostre esigenze. Non cercava alcun tipo di soluzione, anzi non era proprio dispiaciuto dei disagi arrecati.
Non era presente la finestra in camera, e nella descrizione dell annuncio non è citato.
La camera era piccolissima ci si poteva muovere appena ed il condizionatore unico strumento per muovere l’aria era sporchissimo e pieno di polvere.
Anche il bagno era molto piccolo, senza una doccia con un soffione attaccato al rubinetto. Spiacevole anche l’assenza di acqua calda, molte volte non arrivava proprio e siamo stati costretti diversi volte a farci la doccia fredda.
La pulizia era pessima, anche gli asciugami che ci cambiavano ogni giorno erano comunque stra usati, diverse volte anche bucati.
Servizio, camera e pulizia veramente pessimi. Sconsigliatissima come struttura

Affordable, central hotel in Seoul
Pros:

The hotel was well-located in the centre and the price was very good.

Cons:

They don't allow eating in your own room and the hotel is on the third and fourth floors, requiring a lift to reach the lobby. The room was also quite small.

Pros:

Good value for the price. Comfortable room and great location for shopping. However it has a small bathroom.

Cons:

The bathroom much smaller than I expected. The bathroom sink was right in front of the toilet.

Overall, our stay was disappointing due to the poor customer service. The high price did not match the quality of the ex
Pros:

The male receptionist was not helpful at all and came across as having an unfriendly attitude. The interaction felt unwelcoming, and I expected a more professional and courteous level of customer service.

Cons:

Good location

Idéalement placé
Pros:

Idéalement placé dans quartier animé et incontournable
Chambre petite mais confortable . Atout: la climatisation.
Cuisine commune à disposition pour prendre des repas à sa convenance
Tarif très correct
Petit bémol pour l’isolation phonique mais tout dépend de l’éducation des autres touristes!
