no bidet

poor service

The location was quite buzzing, but that's about it. No bidet in the toilet? Absolutely unacceptable! Plus, the new check-in was a disaster, and staff communication was embarrassingly poor. I woudl ve been pleased with a complimentary welcome gift for my troubles, but that never happened. Just can't recommend it this time.

non-functional jet tub

The jet tub in the room often doesn't work. Windows are filthy, limiting any views. The lack of bathroom privacy in the layout may not sit well with travelers sharing space. Toiletries aren't provided, so be prepared to buy essentials.

great location

All Pros, no Cons

The room I stayed in was spacious, nice for easy movement, and I loved the soft bed and fluffy pillows. The location is perfect-closely situated near subway stations and surrounded by shops and eateries.

It was just an appropriate option for a swift visit in Seoul with good value. The bathroom was amazing, making it easy to relax. Plan ahead for your sightseeing as traffic can be a hassle during peak hours.
