謎の足音
Pros:

そこそこ涼しくて清潔でした
朝食はリーズナブルで美味しい

Cons:

夜22時頃からとなり？とも上ともわからない感じで足音が聞こえはじめてそれが３時ころまで聞こえた
その後やっと寝れたので足音が続いてたかどうかはわからない。5階の部屋でした。こんなことって⁈

Superb Hotel with great amenities and location.
Pros:

Great location with easy access to transport links including airport transport. Next to the village of shops and restaurants so great to just nip out for something and not have to stray to far from the hotel.
Coin laundry in the hotel was excellent and super convenient as well as a in-house laundry service.
Filtered Water tap in the room as well as a fridge was super handy

Cons:

Light switch for the room was only at one side of the bed which was strange but didn’t ruin the stay

Perfect place to visit the city
Pros:

Hotel location is perfect, nearby lot of restaurants and the underground. Hotel room was in line with the average sqm of the market. I suggest it for your holidays in Seoul.

Cons:

The storage space in the room isn’t enough for long stays since there isn’t a real wardrobe.
