We booked the hotel last minute because we had to move out of our original accommodation due to black mould issue. I would say that the hotel was such a huge upgrade. We only stayed for one night but we enjoyed every minute of it. The bed was comfy, the room qas clean, it was spacious enough for the both of us and our luggages. Their toilet also had a bidet which we really appreciated. The location was great with the subway station entrance just next to it.

“Fantastic place to stay several days as the location is next fo station whilst you can shop freely within walking distan”
Location- convenient next to subway, shops, hong dae life, food choices around the area. Rooms are cleaned. The restaurant manager during breakfast is the best- he helped the staff cleaned up all the time in his suit, only to stop when people come to drop by at counter to hand it coupons.

“Fantastic location.”
This is the perfect location. Next to the railway station, close to all the restaurants, bars and shops, and right next to a beautiful "forest rail trail" This is an oasis in amongst the buildings and fast pace of Seoul. Cannot fault the location and facilities Definitely recommend
