Some things to be aware of: 1) The shower and toilet are in the same space, meaning when you shower, you Will get the toilet wet. 2) The breakfast is coffee, bread, garlic bread, and some breakfast cookies. That is it. 3) We had issues getting 2 large towels consistently for our room. For people who are 6 ft / 2 meters tall, the small ones they gave were useless.

【スタッフ】 英語は得意なスタッフと苦手なスタッフがいらっしゃいました。 英語が苦手なスタッフも私のおそらく間違ってる韓国語を理解してくださり助かりました。 【客室】 一見すると綺麗なお部屋ですが収納と壁の間などあまり目につかない場所は長らく清掃されていなさそうです。 また、換気用の窓の網戸はかなり汚れていました。 【位置】 ソウルメトロのBulgwang駅3番出口のすぐ近くです。 また、近くには24時間営業のコンビニもあります。
