3.6 CAUTION TO FUTURE GUESTS - Cassidy 25-04-2025

Review: I was unfortunately double-booked, and when I sought assistance from the hotel staff, I was repeatedly told that there was nothing they could do. I spoke with multiple staff members, all of whom redirected me to Agoda, stating they could only assist once they received formal communication from the booking platform. Despite Agoda confirming that they had contacted the hotel, the staff continued to deny receiving any such message. My follow-up email to the front desk manager went unanswered, leaving the issue unresolved.nnAdditionally, the condition of the room was unacceptable—the space had a strong odor resembling urine or sewage, and I had to keep the windows open to ventilate it. However, the noise from outside was excessive, making it extremely difficult to get any rest.

9.0 Perfect end of our Holiday in Seoul - Alessandra 11-06-2025

Positive points: Perfect location! We loved taking the bus during our stay in Seoul, and the hotel is very well connected to multiple bus lines—much better than taking the metro. Riding the bus allows you to actually see the city as you travel.rnrnWe stayed in one of the Corner Suites, which was very spacious—perfect for big suitcases and unpacking all your shopping.rnrnThe hotel staff were lovely, especially one of the staff members who helped us on several occasions and even gave me a breakfast coupon for my birthday. Such a thoughtful gesture!.

Negative points: The only thing we didn’t like very much about the hotel was the bathroom. The bathtub wasn’t very functional—it was a bit impractical to take a shower because the water would go everywhere. Another issue was the lack of towel hangers, which made things slightly inconvenient.rnrnOther than that, everything was perfect!

10.0 혜화 방문일정 있으신 분들 추천합니다 - CHAEYEON 02-03-2025

Review: 정말 조용하고 좋은 숙소였어요. 전반적으로 청결하고, 방에 공기정화기가 있어서 좋았어요. 조명이 조금 어두웠지만 방에서 잠만 잤기 때문에 큰 문제는 아니었어요. 근처에 24시간 편의점도 있어서 편해요. 밤공 보고 천천히 걸어올 만한 거리였습니다. 다음에 또 묵으려고요.

8.0 Very good - Gerry 11-01-2025

8.4 Great Stay, Highly recommended - Joon 02-02-2025

Review: Clean rooms with excellent hot water and house keeping services. The breakfast was delicious, and the room size was fine. Wifi worked well and the location was convenient.

7.0 Very good - Kousuke 03-10-2024

Positive points: Staff were very friendly and spoke great English. The rooms were kept very clean and were looked after attentively. Decent enough room in the hotel plus a small gym and rooftop garden. Overall was very pleasant and good value for our stay.

Negative points: The room’s aircon would only operate when the keycard was in, which I understand was an energy saving measure but it did mean we would walk into a hot room more often than not. nnMy partner is vegetarian and there were few to none options for her that we could see.nnWould have been nice if we could have turned off the automatic sensor lights at the entrance at night.

10.0 Very comfortable and pleasant stay at this hotel - Neal 08-08-2024
