Second stay at this hotel. Big clean rooms, comfortable beds and very affordable. My only complaint is the late check in time and breakfast for foreigners is just toast and jam. To be fair the korean guests seemed to have enjoyed theirs though. My only suggestion for improvement would be for each bathroom to have a squeegee so that the water can be removed from the bathroom floor after showering

Great

Room was spacious and clean. Staff were friendly and helpful. They can't speak English though, but we still managed to understand each other. It's not very near to the subway. Around a 12 minute walk right to the end of the road, but still walkable. Overall, it was worth the stay.
