I was in Korea on business and ended up staying a few extra days. A friend recommended this place, so I decided to check it out. It’s a pretty new place, and everything was clean and in great shape. I liked the way they designed the rooms. You can tell they put some thought into the details. They even had a map of Seoul on the wall, which was actually pretty useful since I wasn’t all that familiar with the area. One thing worth mentioning is the bathroom. It’s right across from the room rather than inside it, which was a little unusual to me. But it’s your own private bathroom, not a shared one, so it really wasn’t an issue. The place is mostly self-check-in, as far as I could tell. I had a couple of questions during my stay, and the staff got back to me right away. That was nice, especially since there’s no traditional front desk. I also spent some time walking around one of the local markets nearby. Lots of interesting things to see, and I’m glad I went. Overall, I had a good stay. It was nice getting to explore a part of Seoul I probably wouldn’t have visited otherwise. I’d stay here again if I find myself back in town.
