Great place to stay !! Staff were super helpful. Great location with lots of restaurants in the area, super market only a few minutes away, and near subway and bus lines. Overall was super impressed for the price we paid.

Property was a decent walk from the closest subway and the bed was hard as a rock. Staff was helpful and friendly.
Helpful staff, clean place but the washroom door is see through and hard to open and close.

It was a good stay, just that you barely got to see the staff and there was no room cleaning option. We stayed for two weeks which was still doable, but I guess just weird.
The hotel is in an alley, looks bad outside but inside is clean, spacious room, free coffee, soft drink, near subway station. Nice staff, they even lent me 220-110 V adaptor.
There is no room service, you have bring garbage and towels out but these are not big deal.
The hotel staff at check in was very friendly. But it was nothing like the photos, the room I got was old and dirty. I smelled mould and there was dust and mould everywhere. I think the price was too high for that quality of a room. I ended up booking a different hotel.

-The stars are rated according to the price, for the cheap price it was a good deal.
-One of the staff didn't speak much English, the other one could speak English well. They were kindly flexible with my check-in time.
-There's a lot of restaurants, a big Lotte Mart grocery store and a Daiso (home items) nearby. Two metro stations nearby and buses. Clothes and other shopping you'd have to go towards central Seoul.
-The hotel room was clean, some moldiness in the bathroom that I have had in all cheap Korean apartments. Aircon and TV worked, and remote control for TV-aircon-lights had English instructions. I used my own Wifi but there was a mediocre connection in the room also. You could get into your room 24/7, overall a good stay!
이불에서 담배 냄새가 많이 나서 청결에 의문이 들고 3명 투숙했는데 이불과 수건이 적고 생수도 기본적으로 없네요!

War ok, Zimmer war ok, Gegend auch ok, wenn man den ganzen Tag draußen ist und nur zum schlafen dieses Zimmer bucht ist es gut. Aber wenn sie sich im Zimmer aufhalten wollen ab und zu sollten sie es nicht.
super hôtel on y à séjourner 15 jours on a adoré. Hôtel propre proche du métro
Personnels sympathiques et agréables .
Pour mon prochain séjour je sais où je retournerais
