The hygiene in the washroom was lacking but apart from that everything else was great, 24hour laundry was right round the corner, and staff tried to help with other little things. The area has a metro right in front of it

Hi, me and my husband a foreigner who needs accommodation nearby my nephew's apartment. My nephew recommended this hotel because the location is also close to public transportation (Dapsimni subway station directly goes down with stairs, less effort. And Dapsimni Bus Stop with a lot of bus routes.) Although the staff can't speak English, my nephew help to communicate with them for check in, check out or asking for glass and water. No problem. Overall, we enjoyed stay here. Thank for all the things~~

Fine, but not worth the money

I paid for a room with a bathtub, but they placed me in a room without one. When I went to the front desk to tell them, they didn’t apologize and just yelled “Key!” And put a new keycard on the counter. The room had no remote for the air-con or heat control so even though it was 65 degrees Fahrenheit outside, the heat was on full blast with no working air conditioner to use to cool the room down.

Not a good experience 😕

First off, when I arrived, no one spoke English even though their website stated otherwise. Also, I had to move my luggage three times because each of the rooms smelled. Upon entry of the third room, I just decided to stick it out and get some rest. I completed my stay, checked out and moved to a cleaner hotel. This was not a good experience at all. I understand building are old. But, remodel them and update them so that it doesn’t smell like mold and mildew. Wasn't impressed at all.

予約時は記載がなく分からないのですが、全室喫煙です。禁煙部屋をお願いしたところ、禁煙部屋はないので、なるべく匂わない部屋を用意してくださるとのことで、確かにタバコ臭さがほぼない部屋でした。その点はありがたかったです。 最寄駅から近いため、女性の一人旅に選ばれる可能性が高いと思うので、以下参考にされてください。 シャワーの温水などは十分出てきますが、施設が古いのもあり、部屋に清潔感はありません。 元々モーテル(ラブホ)だったようです。仕事で長期滞在だったのですが、午後の時間帯になると決まって明らかな喘ぎ声が聞こえてきます。(ほぼ毎日) 滞在中ダニに腕を何か所も噛まれてしまい、部屋を変えてもらえるか尋ねたところ別の階の部屋に快く変えてくださりありがたかったのですが、部屋自体がタバコ臭い上に、空調からずっとタバコの臭いが入ってきて、持参した強力なリセッシュでも太刀打ちできませんでした。 ここでも午後の時間は喘ぎ声。 とても気持ち悪かったです。 変えてもらった部屋は壁がさらに薄く、最初の部屋ではお隣りのいびき、変えてもらった部屋では午後は喘ぎ声、夜は普通に話している声が筒抜けという状況でした。

The hotel is located right next to the train station which is exist no. 4 and close to the convenience store. The room is very big and very comfortable. However, the staffs cant speak English and not very helpful and not that friendly. The location of the hotel is kinda far from the center. Further than I thought. Just because there are not many stops from the centers, doesnt mean that it will be closed to the center. Anyways, its a perfect place for a family because it can 3 people in the rooms with 2 beds. Also a good place for couple because the shower is see through.

60歳若者には負けない買い物好き、買い物三昧、の3日間を過ごしました。。15回以上韓国に行っています。今まで高級ホテルからシャワーだけで浴槽がないホテルにも宿泊しましたが、このホテルは駅前でホテルから1分の所に垢すりできる地元住民の行く銭湯もあり、コンビニ、スーパーもあり便利でした。部屋も広く,浴槽も完備、床暖。夜は暑くて窓を少し開けて寝たくらいです。フロントは日本語は通じませんが、身振り手振り、簡単な英語の単語で通じました。価格も安く、これからは毎回利用しようと決めました。

找不到訂位資料根本是常態

(下面有中文版心得)최악입니다. 체크인 시간은 3시고 숙소에 체크인은 6시에 하려했으나 처음에 데스크에서 안내하시는 직원이 제 리스트를 찾는데 한 10분 허비하고 나서야 사장님이 등장하였습니다. 거기서 끝이 아니라 몇 번이고 제이름을 확인하였고 제이름을 친구 부르듯이 저 앞에서 자연스럽게 ‘ㅇㅇㅇ이’라고 하시더군요. 그리고 방은 꽉찼다고하고 변명으로 하는 소리가 주중에는 hotels닷컴을 열어두고 주말에는 닫는다고 하더군요. 근데 고객의 입장에서 그런거까지 알리가 있나요.. 암튼 알아듣지 못할 인터넷 시스템 상의 문제를 변명으로 늘어놓고 미안하다는 사과나 대책은 없구요. 그냥 30분 동안 기다리랍디다. 청소하시는 분들 식사시간이라구... 환불하고 싶었지만 방법이 없어 꾹참았습니다. 큰 기대 없이 가시는게 좋겠네요. 辦理入住當時社員找不到我們的訂房資料,後來社長來了之後才解釋飯店週末在訂房網站上是鎖起來不讓人訂的(社長解釋假日只想接休息的客人,而不是過夜的客人),後來才說會讓出一間剛給客人使用完的房間,所以要我們坐在沙發上等半小時打掃。僅僅告知都是訂房網站的錯。尤其我們從頭到尾都用韓文對話,但對方認為我們年紀小所以用非敬語的方式跟我們對話及稱呼(照理講與客人對話應該用敬語),房間其實很寬敞,但可惜味道的確有煙味,如果對煙味很敏感且無法用韓語溝通的話建議選擇其他旅館。畢竟出遊時間寶貴,如果跟我一樣遇到訂房問題加上社長無法用英文對話,真的會孤立無援。首爾其實有更好的選擇,真的不用一定要住在離觀光景點皆遠的旅館。
