Absolutely avoid... the photos do not correspond to the real state of the room. Smells of cigarettes in the room, room not clean at all. They couldn't find my reservation, I had to wait 3 hours and put my luggage in an external locker while waiting.

Compared to the price of 100,000 won, the room was very small and very dirty. Hair was all over the place. If it weren't for my son's surgery, I would have stayed at Shilla Stay in Seocho. It's close to Sinchon Severance Hospital, so I decided to cry and eat mustard and stayed there. Re-visit. It's a dirty motel where you don't even want to look at the doctor.

Definitely don’t recommend, their photos look really nice but in real is really dirty. stains everywhere on the wall, mould on toilet walls, broken shower head, broken door handle, broken toilet lid.. the first room we checked in has really strong cigarette smell. My Korean friends told me this is a love hotel for students!Spent really uncomfortable 3 nights there.!

We booked this accommodation knowing that it was low rated and we were not expecting much, but this hotel is the worst of the worst. There is a lot to list. ie. the mould and hairs in the bathroom, the run down smoke ridden lobby and hallways. The biggest issue we had was with the near-transparently thin blanket. When I asked for an extra blanket the receptionist told me it was not possible. After insisting, I was told I could have a blanket but only if I paid him 20,000 won or I could have a blanket that was ‘soiled with blood’. Honestly, the people who run this place are just not nice or welcoming. It would be easier to sleep in a subway basement than to get one some at the reception get out of their chair, or dare I say, smile. When we left and told them that we did not have a good time staying at the accommodation they swore at us. Seriously, keep looking for accommodation. Anything would be better
