The room was clean and comfortable. We didn't interact much with the staff, but they were nice enough at check in/out. Great location - just a few steps away from the subway elevator entrance.
Staff were helpful and friendly and attentive to guests. Service was also prompt. The hotel location was also perfect for a range of reasons such as access to the station, local sites, and shops.
We really enjoyed our stay. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spacious enough for a group of 3. The train station is literally in front of the hotel making it so convenient to get around. I would higly recommend this hotel when staying in Seoul.
Staff and service are very good. Breakfast is OK. Housekeeping so so because I noticed the dirt without that killed over a few days, plus I noticed that the bathroom door rubber is mouldy, I think there needs to be a checking on the bathroom shower door. Location wise it suits me well because of three lines subway exit 4 right outside of the hotel. But please bear in mind that you will need to walk quite far 5min inside the subway in order to get to the different lines, also there are no elevators inside so if you have a huge suitcase, it will be a lot of carrying up and dial at least two flights of stairs. Airport transportation is convenient because airport bus number 6702 stop is right outside the hotel, but please spare at least 90 minutes if you are taking the bus to Icheon airport because there’s another 45 minutes of stopping at many hotels before heading to the airport.
Nice and quiet neighborhood, with a a subway exit with an elevator right outside the door to the hotel - great option for those with a stroller / who need the elevator.
Fantastic property, clean lovely staff, Bus for airport at the front door. Lift to the Subway just outside the front door. Lovely clean laundry area. Great location. This is our families 2nd stay here and we will be back.
Bad service.
Everything is good but one of the Asian female staff always have bad attitude. Happy to discuss more

After I checked in, they handed over a paper informing me that the hotel had some works ongoing. That’s ok, except that they start the works at 07am. That’s not ok.
Breakfast stops serving at 09:30 which in my opinion is too early. 10:00 is standard.
They only have two lifts for the whole building. It takes a while to go up and down. They should at least have three for this type of building.
You cannot set the aircon. It’s fixed. For me it was too hot but impossible to set it.
