Good price comparing to other hotels in the region and considering the service you get. It's a bit old, it's true, needs some refreshments, but the room is spacious and bed and shower are good. Many nice restaurants around and delis like 7-Eleven, CU and Emart 24. We didn't try the hotel's breakfast as we thought it is a little expensive (13 euros/person). One of the best things is the airport shuttle stop just in front of it.

The coffee is so bad!! The location is good, staffs are kind, room is clean, not too small and has a good view. The lighting is inconvenient for two people to use. The bathroom wall is made of glass, so when one person is sleeping, the bathroom light is too bright and the automatic light in front of the door turns on automatically, which is very inconvenient when other person is sleeping.

This is how it is in a fantastic location for Itaewon. It is close to all amenities, shops, bars, restaurants and Metro stations. We stayed here for 10 days. Staff were very friendly, the rooms were tended to regularly and they were very comfortable. Very nice to have tea and coffee making facilities as well as a mini fridge. We had a lovely stay here. The internal café/bar Voila was rarely open when it was supposed to be open so never got to sample it.

Hotel room wasn't in the 10/10 shape but had all the necessities. It's 7 min walk to the nearest subway station. 7/11 is right by. They didn't tell me but the airport bus, you must wait outside for and for 1 person I had to pay 17 dollars. Do with that as you will. I will say staff is super sweet and you get room service every day unless you tell them otherwise.

Wouldn’t recommend this hotel. It’s generally not that clean. Got a room and the towels were full of hair. Told this to the reception and got another room right away. But the floor of the new room was also dirty. Location is great tho.

The hotel is overall quite nice and well located. The staff just need to learn how to talk to customers. The worst welcome we had in 20 days of traveling in Korea.
