It's close to the station, there are convenience stores and local food restaurants nearby, the hotel staff are friendly, and the cost performance is excellent. I would like to stay here again. The only downside is that there were a lot of fruit flies in the room, which disturbed my sleep. No matter how much I tried to get rid of them, there were still a lot of them.

Staff were pleasant and helpful. The room was a decent size, everything was in good working order and condition, the bed was very comfortable. It was surprising that a basic amenity kit wasn't provided in the room - it was available from a vending machine for 1500 kwn. The nightly rate was a bit high for the area, but I wanted to be right by the metro station, and the hotel was literally just a crosswalk away.

This hotel is near a major train station. If you are traveling from the airport you can take 6002 airport limousine and the walk is about 1 minute away. Hotel had basic features. It has a tub, but no shower curtain. be prepared to have your bathroom completely wet after showering. The room did not have a microwave, but does have heating pot for water.

Don't go

Outdated and dirty. Front desk feels like some cheap motel. I do not recommend anyone staying here. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of options in the area, so drive of take additional stations down for better stay.

32°C summer, lobby was air-conditioned but the room was not. (The info booklet in the room said the aircon was hooked up to the building's central air, so we weren't allowed to control it). Couldn't imagine trying to sleep there. I had intended to stay at this hotel before moving somewhere else long-term, but ended up going to the other place immediately to sleep and using this hotel room as just a luggage staging area.

Hotel outside appearance is deceiving. Very small room with dated cheap furniture sparse around the room. Plastic chairs and table that belong in the trash. Two hangers against the wall, and that is it; not to mention hard to control the air,. Mostly cold. Could go more. Still gave 3 out of 5 for the convenience of location.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was extremely hot, and the temperature isn’t adjustable. The digital panel shows it’s sitting at 36degree Celsius, literally a hot summer day. The window opens slightly to get some cool air in. But the window is right above the headboard of the bed. So you can’t keep it open at night and sleep with the cold air blowing at your face. It’s been a pain. Most of the people are probably keeping the window open when they are there. The opening of the window grew a lot of black mold, which is disgusting. Imagine all the cold air going through the window into the room has to pass through the mold first. Requested a room change, they wouldn’t do. They said they would check the second day but nothing happened. The lobby looks nice and smells good which kept my hopes high. It was cheap, relatively. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

I don't usually leave reviews, but I had such a bad experience that I feel compelled to share. They only gave me one key, and when I requested an additional one, they asked for a deposit. I had confirmed before booking that I could use 110v electronic devices, but when I arrived, they couldn't even distinguish between a transformer and a power outlet, and kept insisting on the deposit. When I asked if someone could help me with my heavy luggage, they sighed and initially refused, though someone else eventually helped. Despite the information stating that the ramen machine in the basement could be used until 9 p.m. on weekdays, they annoyingly told me it was closed at 8:30 p.m. and repeatedly refused service. My child wanted to try the ramen machine because of their experience with it in Korea, and it was one of the reasons we chose this hotel. However, they ruined our trip to Korea and every time we returned to the hotel, we regretted choosing it. We never want to stay at this hotel again, so we decided to stay at a different hotel for the rest of our trip.

일단 경악한게, 수건에 이상한 털. 게다가 오래된 예전 모텔방 수준 딱 그정도인데, 역 바로 앞이라 그런가 비용이 너무 비싸서 놀랐네요. 스탠다드 디럭스라는 가장 기본방 인데도 평일 1박에 23.5만원. 사진믿고 가시면 절대 안됩니다. 다시는 안갈라구요. 10만원 미만이면 모를까. 어제 너무 급해서 잤지만, 위생/ 시설상태/ 직원친절도 모두 별 1개도 아까웠어요. 한국 사정에 대해 잘 모르는 외국인들 갈까 걱정되네요.
