I think it's very convenient because it's close to Hoehyeon Station and you can walk to Myeong-dong and Namdaemun Market. Also, the staff can speak Japanese, so I didn't have any problems.Maybe it's because the facility itself is old, but the room was disappointing. From the moment I entered, there was a dusty smell, and at times I could smell a musty smell. The person I went with had allergies and couldn't stop sneezing. (I got better after wearing a mask)Also, the water in the bathroom didn't flow well and was clogged, making it uncomfortable.

The bed was very old and worn out, the wires of the springs were touching, the pads were flimsy and it was horribly hard and painful.I tried to cover myself with a comforter, but my body hurt and I couldn't sleep.The towels were yellowed and not pure white, and the attached bathroom smelled of ammonia.There are no bath mats, and the slippers are old and uncomfortable.The electrical outlets are tight and look like they were made several decades ago. Also, most of the installations are at an angle.I was surprised that hotels like this exist in this day and age.

◎Good points・Toilet paper can be flushed- Good because you can set the air conditioning yourself・Refrigerator cools well・It's a little far from the downtown area, so it's quiet outside at night.・Water is replenished daily for the number of people.・Box of tissues available・Non-disposable indoor slippers available・If cleaning is necessary or not, hang a tag outside the doorknob.・Staff is very responsive (can speak Japanese)・Myeong-dong and Namdaemun are within walking distance, one stop from Seoul Station・Convenience stores and restaurants are right in front of you- Strong water pressure and adjustable temperatureThe hotel seems old, but it was kept fairly clean.I had researched the hotel facilities in advance, so I didn't have any particular inconveniences.・There are no amenities provided, so you need to prepare everything from shampoo to toothbrush by yourself.・No nightwear・If the person next to you is noisy, you can hear them talking.・No security box(Do not leave valuables behind)The hotel is old and old, so if you are interested or are traveling with children, you may want to stay in a clean place.I think it's perfect for people who just want to sleep and aren't at the hotel most of the time.

The person at the front desk spoke Japanese well.I had to leave early at 6 a.m. on my way back, so I asked the front desk to reserve a taxi for me.Everyone was kind lolThere is one bottle of water a day in the refrigerator in the room.Walking distance to MyeongdongThere were many convenience stores and restaurants in front of the hotel.

The location was good and I was able to walk to Myeongdong and Namdaemun. I was happy that water was replenished during cleaning. I will use it again.

Within walking distance to Myeong-dong, 1 minute walk from Hoehyeon Station. N Seoul Tower is also about 15 minutes away. The location was great. There is a real porridge shop in a building next to the station, which is good for breakfast. Breakfast at Kalguksu Yokocho (although it was difficult to find) in Namdaemun Market across the station was also a good experience.The room was clean and the bed was comfortable.They also refused to clean the room, but towels and water were delivered.The only negative was that the TV didn't work.Even if I couldn't understand Hangul, I still wanted to watch the drama.Maybe I should have told the front desk.Due to bad timing and fatigue, I decided not to visit again. I can live without a TV.I can almost understand Japanese.

The hotel does not provide toothbrushes, razors, or separate shampoo and conditioner. Apart from these issues... It's not a bad hotel! The receptionists are very attentive and kind
