良かったです🎶
Pros:

新村駅から歩いてすぐなので良い
地図を見て歩けば迷うことはないです。
テレビでYouTubeみれます。
ウォーターサーバーもありました！助かります。
ホテルの受付の方もとても親切でした。
受付の際に紙で日本語説明書を出してくれるので、ゴミ捨てやタオルの交換の件はそこでちゃんと聞いておくべきです。
毎朝受付に交換してほしいと一言言わないと交換してくれないようです。一言言うだけでいいので、何の問題もないです。
ドライヤー風量最高です。シャワー水量も文句なし、お湯もしっかり出ます。

Cons:

ツインで止まったのですが、バスタブとシャワーの位置が謎に離れていて面白い部屋の作りだなと思いました笑
部屋によって作りが違うのかよくわからないですが、そういう所が気になる人もいたりするのかな？と。
わたしは、面白い部屋だなーと思うくらいで、何も不便ではなかったです🌟

Such a great hotel, honestly no complaints at all ! Everything was super comfortable and clean. The whole staff is so lovely, and a massive shout out to Min who was just extra kind and welcoming. Plus, the location is hands down one of the best spots you can get in Seoul;
you really couldn't ask for a better base to explore !!

Great location and access to amenities.
Pros:

Great location. Easy checking and access to the station. Busy area with lots of local food and shops

Cons:

My room only had one window that opened up to a car park, with zero privacy. The shower also flooded everyone I used it. I was on ground floor and I think it was a budget room - but overall worth the money
