Pros:

Понравилось месторасположение. Было удобно пешком добираться до несколько веток метро, до дворца, до улиц с кафе. Ну и в целом добираться и до других достопримечательностей. Номер конечно тесноват, но если вы планируете гулять целый день, то норм.

Amazing location, comfortable, friendly staff.
Pros:

Amazing location, would stay in this area every time. Close to transport and food. Room was comfortable, breakfast was great to have on site, staff were friendly.

Cons:

Ventilation not amazing and hotel is not the newest but absolutely fine since we didn't spend time hanging out in the room anyway.

Good Stay at Simple Stay
Pros:

Posizione interessante per muoversi, cè tanto vicino a poco. Poi la Corea non essendo come il Giappone è molto più comodo muoversi in termini di distanza. Lo staff è gentile sopratutto il ragazzo che fa pomeriggio e notturno. È proprio un Bro. Ed è un gran gamer haha. Simpaticissimo!

Cons:

La Doccia nella stanza è quel tipo che odio, come in Grecia che è sopra il gabinetto...una persona si lava letteralmente nel gabinetto. Lo trovo terribile. Igiene 0. Però opinione personale

Very enjoyable. A nice budget stay in the heart of the city. As a solo traveller it was perfect.
Pros:

This was a great location to get to any other part of the city. My room was comfy and clean, the tv was excellent and the spa bath was a Godsend after long days exploring the city. I had a separate shower as well and the water pressure was insane. I very much enjoyed my stay here. People might think the alley way that the hotel is situated in is a bit dodgy looking, but it's not. As a solo woman traveling I didn't feel unsafe at all in this city. I was able to borrow a plug converter at reception and free bottled water was available at all times. My room was quiet, I didn't hear anything from any other room. I kept my window open and the air con on for most of my stay as it was extremely warm outside. I could hear the street round the corner at night but I liked this and it was only because I kept my window open, it didn't keep me awake at all. Great stay here and I would come back.

Cons:

The breakfast wasn't to my taste, however, this wasn't a problem for me as I rarely eat breakfast in a hotel as I prefer to eat somewhere different each day when I visit a new place.

Perfeito se procura uma boa localização e quer um quarto só para descansar e tomar banho.
Pros:

Localização muito boa, embora tenha bom isolamento, do nosso quarto ouvia-se algum barulho da agitada rua das traseiras. O pequeno almoço não tinha a maior variedade, mas era saboroso. Staff amigável.

Cons:

Algum barulho da rua, quarto pequeno com uma janela pequena também.

Ήρεμη
Pros:

Υπέροχο προσωπικό που μας προσφέρανε μέχρι και έμπλαστρο για την μέση όταν μας είδαν να πονάμε

Cons:

Το πρωί μας ρωτούσαν αν κάνουμε check out θέλοντας να μας πούνε ότι δεν θα έπρεπε να φάμε εκείνη την μέρα και μας το ρώτησαν ενώ ακόμα είχαμε 3 μέρες να μείνουμε προσβάλουμε τες μας μπροστά στους άλλους πελάτες! Δεν έχουν κανένα σύστημα να δίνεις ένα χαρτάκι όταν φτάνεις για πρωινό οπότε δεν ξέρουν ποιος το δικαιούστε και ποιος όχι
