The hotel's cleanliness and tidiness were impressive, but it was disappointing that the Air Conditioning was turned off completely and the heating system was set quite high. Rooms were clean and readily available, offering immense space with the choice of a bathtub or shower at the same price.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, but a strange noise from the metallic decoration near the window woke me up early every morning. While clean and tidy, the air conditioning was turned off completely and the heating set too high. There was an unpleasant smell lingering in the room.

The hotel is located just right outside Gongdeok station, making it super convenient to explore Seoul and with many dining options nearby. The rooms are clean with all necessary facilities, even though I had to switch rooms due to a ventilation issue. The service was average, missing some attention to detail. The hotel offers great value for money with a convenient location.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and tidy, and the bed was really comfy. However, I was a bit disappointed that the Air Conditioning was turned off completely and the heating system was set too high at 28 degrees. The location was incredibly convenient, being right next to the railway station. The dining experience, though, was not up to par as the food choices were limited and not very fresh. The hotel offers good value for money, but the dining options could be improved.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, clean, and had a modern chic style that put me in a great mood. Despite the room temperature being a bit high, I couldn't resist keeping the window open to enjoy the lovely interior. The location was superb with easy access to multiple subway lines and plenty of dining options around. The dining experience was good overall, offering a mix of Western and Korean cuisines. I found the hotel slightly pricier than others in the area, but it's totally worth it!
