I will probably never book this hotel again.

The lobby looks nice. The check-in counter staff were also friendly. However, one major disappointment was that as soon as I entered the room, there was a strange smell. The odor was unpleasant to the point of discomfort. Later at night, when I returned, unpacked, and tried to take a shower, I found that no water was coming out of the shower booth. I had to wait for almost an hour. Eventually, I requested a room change. I hope such issues do not happen again in the future, and it would be great if the rooms had a cleaner, fresher scent.

Pretty underwhelmed

This was an overnight in Seoul on our way back to the states. It was Christmas time so the lobby was super decked out! Unfortunately the Suite we reserved was anything but. It did have 2 rooms but minimal furniture and decorations. The bed was a Queen (not King) and furnishings looked about 30 or 40 years old. I think there is a newer wing that might be nicer.
