This was such a cozy and quiet place. The location was really great, too… food and shopping near by, plus near buses and the subway. I extended my stay one night and would have longer if the room had been available. I would stay here again.

Hotel is in a great location, close to shopping and transportation (subway and bus lines). It’s a little difficult to find, as it’s in an alley off of Galaxy street of Gourmet, across from Lenith Hotel, but basically behind Lotte Dept. The closest subway is Soemyeong stn, which you can get to by transferring on airport line to Sasang, then Soemyeong. The hotel is generally unmanned, so you need to get the hotel entry code from the hotel before you arrive, as well as the hotel room #, since the owner will leave the keys on the desk for you to pickup directly. The room itself is quite spacious, especially the double rooms which have 2 queen sized bed. Lots of amenities, especially water bottles provided, and bathroom is quite large, although the shower takes quite awhile to heat up. It’s basic but more than adequate for a comfortable stay in a great location.

Nice stay, if you can get in.

Alright, so this will be a mixed review. Firstly, the bad stuff, hopefully will serve as feedback to owners or as warning to other travellers. When I arrived, the door was locked, there was nobody at front desk. Just a piece of paper with "Call us" and Korean phone number. As my SIM card was data only, I was unable to call the hotel and was just standing outside of the hotel. The phone numbers listed don't seem to be connected to any whatsapp or telegram, so I couldn't message them. No email and they never replied to my messages on Hotels.com platform. I walked around, returned in 20 minutes and LUCKILY, there was lady at Front desk to let me in. I'm not sure what I would do otherwise, walked into nearby restaurants and tried to convince them to call random Korean number? I understand hotels without front desk exist, but either have whatsapp contact or email me information on my stay ahead of time. Simple email with entrance code and room number would be enough. --------------------------------------------------- Otherwise it was great stay. Room seemed Freshly reconstructed, all clean and nice, with a bit of style. Just maybe limit decorations, there is not much shelf space already. Location is great, close to subway, with shopping, food and market streets all nearby.

3泊しました。大きな冷蔵庫、縦に並んだベッド(初めての配置だってけど良かった)、日数分の水、タオルは初日に全て置いてありました。追加が必要な時はメッセージ送ると対応してくれるみたいです。私は間に合ったので依頼せず。ゴミ箱は、ドアの外に置いておくと、中身を捨ててくれるシステム。エレベーターはなし、テレビなし。ホテルの人にはほとんど会うことなくチェックインも無人、チェックアウトも無人、気楽で良いです。部屋の掃除も入らないので、それも気楽で良いです。総じて場所含めてとても良かった。

受付のスタッフが24時間常駐してないホテルに泊まったのは初めてで少しの不安はありましたが、前日に入口ドアの暗証番号やチェックインの仕方をメッセージで知らせてくれたので、問題なく部屋に入れました。 アメニティとして、使い捨てスリッパ、歯ブラシ、歯磨き粉、体を洗うタオル、洗顔料があり、お風呂にはシャンプー、コンディショナー、ボディソープ、泡ハンドソープ。 タオルも無料の水もたくさんありました。 ホテルの周りは繁華街なのに部屋は静かでゆっくり休めました。さらにホテル内では壁は薄めなのか廊下や階段の音が聞こえましたが、これも夜遅くまで騒ぐ宿泊客がいなかったので問題なし。(これはその時のお客によりますね) ホテル近くにロッテデパートあり、西面市場あり、飲食店多数

今回は乗り換えのための一泊だったのですが、このホテルにして良かったと心から思いました。お値段がお手頃にも関わらず、部屋は清潔かつ快適です。スタッフもとても親切で色々と助けて頂きました。 立地は良く、どこへ行くのにもアクセスが便利です。繁華街にありながらもホテルの部屋は静かでゆっくり寝る事ができました。 また宿泊したいホテルです。

駅から近く、繁華街にも近いので立地がよいです。エレベーターがないのが不便ですが、タイミングよくスタッフさんがいればスーツケースを運んでくれます。お部屋もお洒落でよいのですが、壁が薄いのか、夜中に隣の部屋で騒いでいるおばさんの声が聞こえてきて不快でした。前回泊まった時は静かだったので、宿泊客のマナーの問題かもしれませんが。次回もまた泊まりたいホテルです。
