Great location and very clean.
Great hotel and a great place to stay even if you’re going to visit downtown Seoul. Uber works great and very inexpensive. Hotel family room was so spacious like an apartment, large screen tv, very clean, good amenities. Highly recommend for any type of stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Very nice area with plenty of food options, felt very authentic with practically no other tourists. But be aware, it takes 45 minutes-1hr (at least) to get to most of the tourist spots in Seoul, but public transport is super cheap and convenient, so it never felt too hard to get around.
Room is all you need, with a nice bathroom.
Hotel staff welcoming and friendly, but didnt speak much English (it is a business hotel as I understand it).
The staffs working there were so friendly, respectful and hospitable in creating a welcoming environment for customers. I had trouble turning on the AC and the staff went in person and helped me with that. He also helped me find a converter to use for charging. There were also many local bistros and restaurants located near the hotel so it’s very convenient to stroll around and explore.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
It had the basic amenities which was great. The walls had some wholes in it. I think it has to be redone. Otherwise we liked our little haven. It just needed a microwave.
벽체에 붙은 스위치도 있으나 모든 전원을 TV 리모컨으로 통합 조작할 수 있도록 돼있었지만 사전 설명이 없어 (작은 리플렛이 한장 있었으나 찾기도 어려움) 초기에 전등이나 TV 조작이 어려웠음.
보다 쉽게 알아볼 수 있도록 안내서를 비치하거나 체크인시 설명해 주면 좋겠음.
이번에 고척스카이둠에 열린 콘서트를 보려고 와서 여기를 머물린다는 것 정말 좋은 선택인 것 같다. 고척과 가깝고 교통도 생각보다 편리하다.
호텔 아래 바로 편의점과 음식점이 많이 있고 근처에 대형 마트까지 있다. 동네 조용하고 객실은 깨끗하다. 비품정리도 빨르다. 다음에 또다시 도척스카이둠 콘서트를 보려고 하면 여기를 다시 머물릴 예정이다.
Tidy and clean!
I will make a hotel reservation here when I go to watch a concert in Gocheok Sky Dome in the future:)
