Nightmare! There were so many tour busses that held a lot of people. Plus there were no regulations or system on catching an elevator with that much people. We arrived to check in at around 10pm after a long day in Seoul, to find the hotel lobby flooded with people. Hotel.com also charges extra for pool access (which I paid for) and was unable to use because swimming caps are required. (Which was NOT noted anywhere). Staff asked us to buy them at Emart and none were available, then asked us to go 2 mins away to buy them. The pool hours are too limited and the rooms are run down. Doesn't look like the photos.
