It was a bit of a walk from the station, but the room was super cute! The front desk staff was very kind and made it easy to get around!

The location is a bit far as you have to walk about 10-15 minutes from the station, but in other respects it was very good.First of all, the cleanliness inside the hotel room was good, and there was no mold or moisture in the bathroom. It was on the 12th floor and the view was very good. This day was especially cool because it was a super moon.In particular, they were very accommodating to my requests and the cost-effectiveness was very good.

There was a stuffy smell when entering the room, much like the smell of undried clothes, and there was no view when the floor-to-ceiling windows were opened. Maybe it was because we lived on the 3rd floor...Then the pillow case was dirty, like a shoe print on it.There are still two or three long hairs hanging on the toilet shower head….The sheets are also a little stainedIf you have mysophobia, this may not be the best choice==I booked this hotel for the beautiful view, but I was really disappointed.Over 3,000 per night, I really think it’s not worth it…It is worth mentioning that the counter staff are very nice and can speak English.All in all I don't recommend staying here.

We rented 13 suites.First of all, from the moment I entered the room, the atmosphere in the room was great and I was excited. The most stylish room and the best terrace with a night view. It's really fun to take photos in your room, so if you come as a couple or with girls, you'll have the best memories when you look back on your trip. It was also great to take out chicken and eat it on the terrace and drink alcohol.Also, the location was very good as it was easy to go to Dongdaemun, Myeongdong, shopping and gourmet sightseeing.The only downside is that there were no amenities.This is a hotel you should stay at at least once as a memory of your trip to Korea.
