Fun time! Felt like a Kdrama apartment
Pros:

Spacious, clean, lots of amenities on sight! Really pretty as well!

Cons:

Paying for storage locker when you are at the hotel. I had never heard of that before because if you stayed at a property they would just hold your luggage

2 Tage in Seoul mit gutem Anschluss an die U-Bahn
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels ist gut, eine U-Bahn Station der Ringbahn ist nicht weit weg. Kleine Supermärkte und Restaurants sind in der Nähe.
Die Zimmer haben eine kleine Küchenzeile mit Kühlschrank, wo man sich gerne auch mal eine Zwischenmahlzeit zubereiten kann, oder das Bier für den Abend auf dem kleinen Balkon kühlstellen kann.

Cons:

Das Frühstück ist (natürlich) sehr koreanisch ausgerichtet und für einen Westeuropäer gibt es eher wenig Auswahl - man muss aber nicht verhungern.
Wenn man zu zweit auf dem Zimmer ist, ist es störend dass das Doppelbett auf der einen Seite an der Wand steht.

Clean, convenient location with nice amenities.
Pros:

Clean. Nice property. Good amenities, including convenient mart, luggage storage, rooftop sitting areas provide nice views.

Cons:

They are currently demolishing the immediate area south of the existing hotel. The views are apocalyptic. If you can, request a north facing (river view) room.

Pros:

두번째 숙박이고 십대딸과 함께 장기 숙박이라 침실 방이 두개로 나눠져 있고 거실 있고 부엌있고 가성비 좋고 일반 호텔 객실보다 훨씬 넓고 좋습니다. 9월에 서울 방문 계획 있는데 또 방문 할 예정입니다. 지난 4월에도 이번 방문에도 리셉션에 전영민씨 너무 친절하시고 프로페셔널하게 손님들을 대하십니다. 칭찬 많이 드리고 싶습니디.

Cons:

주위에 재개발 지역이라 좀 어수선합니다. 남산이 보이는 B동 객실은 엘리베이트가 3개라 한꺼번에 투숙객들이 몰리는 시간에는 약간 화가 날 정도로 시간이 지체됩니다. 4월에 A동에 머물렀을때는 엘리베이트 문제 전혀 느끼지 못했습니다.

Great stay in a large unit and a convenient location
Pros:

The rooms were large and we loved that we had a washer and dryer in unit. The unit seemed very new and fresh. Check-in was easy and we had pleasant interactions with the staff.
I thought the location was great. A three minute walk to the subway station was a huge plus. There is a coffee shop downstairs and a convenience store as well. There are a few more coffee shops within a minute or two walk. The main tourist areas were maybe a 10 minute walk, but it was nice to be out of the chaos once your day had ended. Everything was within one stop on the subway if we didn’t want to walk. We would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

We thought the unit could have been cleaned a little better on arrival. We noticed long hairs on the floor and still a little dusty in corners. The bathroom sink was clogged.
