Nice place to stay, clean, friendly, safe, quiet, comfortable room, decent breakfast except that the breakfast place seemed understaffed such that refills of food were slow, fruit juice is low quality and fruits were either bananas or orange only…but overall very good value hotel.

Overall worth staying as they have basic necessities; breakfast was very ideal and delicious. Wish the hotel had better gym equipment, other than treadmills; nobody uses incline bike machine, found it to be waste of space. Friendly staff !

This hotel was near the Sinseoldong Subway Station making it very easy to get to places by public transportation. Across the road from the hotel between the hotel and the subway station was a really excellent restaurant, Hymchan Jangeo. Something really nice about the hotel: there was a foreign currency exchange machine right in the lobby. Very convenient. The only complaint that I have is that the room was a little bit cramped. Given all the other positives, however, I really recommend this hotel.
