場所が便利。水回りとお部屋は清潔。寝るだけなら問題はない。
Pros:

明洞の繁華街まで歩いてすぐで、とてもロケーションは良かったです。ただ、空港リムジン6015番で来ると、ホテル前で止まるのですが、ぐるっと大回りしてくるので、ちょっと時間がもったいなかったです。（荷物があるので、手前の駅で降りて歩く、というのもできませんでした。。）4人部屋に宿泊しましたが、タオルのセットが３セットしかなく、フロントで言ったらすぐにもらえました。二日目はちゃんと4セットありました。ロビーにWOWPASSの機械もあり、便利でした。ホテルの入り口に、デモの道具が散乱していますが、特に気にならなかったです。徒歩圏内にコンビニもあり、水も買うことができます。お部屋には一泊につき1本のペットボトルの水が置かれていました。設置されているシャンプーなどの質も普通で、使うことができました。（肌荒れなどもなかったです。）水圧は若干弱いかな程度で許容範囲。シャワーヘッドの角度が変えられないので、背が低い私には少し使いずらかったです。全体的には、清潔感や使い心地など、可もなく不可もなく、日中はで歩いているので、寝るだけには全く問題ない、という感じでした。

Cons:

廊下の香水か洗剤の匂いがとてもきつかったです。清潔にしてくれている、ということではあると思いますが、ちょっと匂いがキツすぎました。お部屋の中は特に匂わなかったのですが。廊下が気になりました。

Pros:

Great location right next to metro station and the night market. Lots of shops and restaurants in the area. The room was comfortable and big with everything you need; bathrobes, slippers, chargers, toiletries, fridge, coffee/tea etc. Cleaned every day to high standard.

Cons:

All was good. Some may find the interior a bit dated, but we liked the look.

安定の宿泊
Pros:

とにかく立地が良い。もう30年以上ソウルでの宿泊はここです。足りないものが何もない。そして部屋も他のホテルより少し広いのが気に入っています。

Cons:

入り口のデモが更に悪化しています。コロナで社員を相当数減らした様で腹いせに入り口横に小屋を建てて大音量で曲を流し、抗議文を貼りまくっています。以前は入り口外だけでしたが、今回は入り口内にもゴミの様なプラカードっぽいものが山積みになっていました。

普通
Pros:

明洞駅からすぐでロケーションは最高でした。日本語ができるスタッフが多かったです。エステができていて宿泊者に便利。スーツケースの入る24時間まで無料ロッカーがあるのもべんり。

Cons:

建物が古いのでオートロックだけど、ドアを自分で閉めないと空きっぱなしになったり、シンクが詰まりやすかったりした。bookingドットコムで喫煙室を予約したのに全室禁煙で、喫煙所が不便なところにあったので喫煙者には勧められない。

The location was fantastic and the the staff was friendly and helpful.
Pros:

Traditional hotel services. Convenient location. The hotel staff suggested family room when I requested for adjoining room since there were 6 of us. It turned out just nice for us. One of the bathrooms was renovated to be elderly friendly which were just nice for our elderly grandma. The furniture dated but it worked just fine.

Cons:

It’s a pity that the demonstration left their things at the entrances. But good thing that their lobby is large and immediately cut-off the unpleasant sight the moment we enter the lobby.
