NICE HOTEL BUT NEED TO WALK A LOT
It’s a nice hotel. Our shower was licking water through the bottom of shower glass panels that we had to be careful. I think it was a design flaw. They had a nice bed but the worst pillows I have ever used!!

10/10 Exceptional

so comfortable and spacious!
my family and I stayed at this hotel after a long trip abroad and it was by far the most comfortable place we stayed at on our trip. we stayed in a residence which was very spacious and gave us enough space for our luggage and the toddler on our trip had enough space to play in the room. the place had lots of counter space in the bathroom. so spacious for a place in seoul. my only gripes would be the bathroom door was glass and opened directly to the beds which made it difficult for us to sleep if anyone was in the bathroom. additionally the couch was a bit dirty but otherwise everything was very clean, we loved the filtered water dispenser, and beds were so comfortable. it was also very close to the dongdaemun train station which connects you to multiple lines and makes it fast and easy to get around the city!

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel location is fantastic, amenities are great too. Loved the gym and what it offers. Breakfast and dinner buffets are overpriced so we didn’t use this options. It has 2 pools (indoors and outdoors), but indoor pool was so crowded and full of kids screaming and splashing. Our room was spacious and very clean! Loved the towels, sheets and pillows, good quality. 2 things that we actually had problems with are the A/C in the room and the workers at The Deli caffe. A/C was set at one temperature, you can’t control it and lower the temperature if you need it. We were here in August and the room was very hot especially after we take a shower and the heat gets in from the bathroom. The covers were for a wintertime, nice but very thick but if the room is not cold enough you sweat all night long. Second problem I had to mention is the girls that are working in The Deli cafeteria. We had hard time communicating with them, they were pretending that they don’t understand us. They were little bit arrogant and with an attitude. They would misinterpret information purposely. We had to repeat everything at least twice, when they actually understood us very well. This was on a daily bases, every day for our every visit. They would also let us wait for our order for quite a bit. This is frustrating as this can set a tone in the morning for your day and you are on vacation!

Didn’t like property services at all. No ice vending machine, ice cost 4000KW. Swimming cap cost 8000KW. Check in/ out were horrible. Have to reserve for swimming pool time. Small sauna room with lacking amenities. Location was not great. 20 minutes walk to all attractions in humid hot sticky weather.not good for the price.

I would definitely stay here again if returning to Seoul. The location is good being very close to the metro station and the airport bus stops outside. You are walking distance to some sites but otherwise public transport is easy as 3 different metro lines go through the nearby station. Service and hospitality by staff was excellent. The indoor and rooftop pool are nice to relax in. I stayed in an apartment and it was surprisingly spacious and very comfortable. The bathtub was huge! Would recommend staying here.
