Pros:

If you prefer cleanliness and reliable service rather than a modern design, this hotel is for you.

We stayed 3 nights in a twin room and everything was ok.

The room was clean and had all necessary amenities. It was checked and cleaned every day.

The mattresses are comfortable.

The location is perfect in Dongdaemun: a few minutes from bus stations and just 4 stops from Myeong-dong. There is a bakery in the nearby, as well as many shops and restaurants.

Sincerely recommend.

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。
