Pros:

Molto gentili, ha piovuto tanto e loro sono stati disponibili nel darci i loro ombrelli. C’è qualcuno in reception h24. Molto vicino alle varie fermate della metro e a dei bei quartieri. C’è la possibilità di provare la spa dell’hotel in modo gratuito, tipica spa koreana

初渡韓の方におすすめです
Pros:

友達と2人旅でしたが、部屋が広く室内でテイクアウトのチキンを食べたりゆっくりできました。また、場所がよく部屋に戻って休みながら観光できて良かったです。

Cons:

駅や公共バス停、リムジンバス停は歩きます7分くらい。でも、場所がいいので運動だと思えばいい感じ。

Pros:

Хорошая локация отеля рядом торговые центры.

Cons:

Отель старенький,комнаты просторные,но вся мебель очень "уставшая",,окно было заклеяно плёнкой от солнца. От этого комната была тёмной, совсем не видно было улицу и мини форточка.У кого клаустррфобия не советую.

Pros:

The hotel’s location is perfect, and the staff genuinely tried to be professional and helpful. Unfortunately, the hotel itself was a big disappointment.

Cons:

First of all, the rooms practically have no real windows. The glass is covered with a dark film, so no natural sunlight comes inside, and it’s impossible to open the windows. There is supposedly air conditioning in the room, but guests cannot control it themselves — you have to ask the reception to turn it on or off. As a result, the room feels like an aquarium, with almost no fresh air at all.

The housekeeping staff also did not clean the rooms properly. In addition, the rooms are extremely noisy — you can hear every sound from the neighboring rooms, including the toilet. Overall, despite the excellent location, the stay was far below expectations
