It was a perfectly pleasant stay and I hope to stay there again while I'm in Korea.
Pros:

For the most part, I enjoyed everything. It had all that I was looking for in a hotel. I really liked the restaurants and stores that surrounded the hotel. My stay was a wonderful experience. I am actually traveling to the area next week and was disappointed to learn that there are no rooms available for at least some of my stay so I had to book another hotel. I hope it is as good as the Sono Calm, but I doubt it will be.

Cons:

At the breakfast, the hashbrown potatoes were sometimes perfect. But, sometimes they were over cooked. I can honestly say that was the only thing that I found to my personal disliking. But, maybe many more people prefer them that way. So, I might be in the minority.

Pros:

넓은 공간과 직원들의 친절함

Cons:

샴푸케이스에 머리카락이 있고 방에서 벌레에
물려 물파스를 요구하니 없다고 했다
화장실에서 담당 직원이 핸드폰을 하고 인사도
없이 서있어 서비스 매너교육이 아쉬웠고
침대 옆에 콘서트가 없어 핸드폰 충전하며 사용
못해 불편했다.

Great place if you’re staying only in Goyang
Pros:

Very clean , extremely good room service and not expensive

Cons:

Charging to use the swimming pool $35 AUD for a swim is outrageous.
Also the hotel is too far from Seoul CBD
Breakfast is really expensive as well.
