The hotel is in a great location, just a short walk from the Sinchon subway and surrounded by plenty of restaurants and bars. The rooms are clean and spacious, featuring a large bed and a huge bathtub, although there was a slight smell of cigarettes that cleared up quickly. The service was excellent, with friendly staff that offered help whenever needed. On the downside, while the dining included is good, I wish there were more breakfast options. Overall, it feels like a solid choice for its price.

I had a good stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located very close to the subway station and surrounded by loads of bars and restaurants. The rooms are clean and come with large beds and TVs, but I felt the price was a bit high for what you get. The service from the staff was friendly and helpful, though limited. The amenities were cool, but the air conditioning left something to be desired during the hot weather.

The rooms are clean, modern, and spacious, featuring great amenities like a large bathtub and free movie streaming on a big screen TV. The service was outstanding, with a friendly and helpful staff. However, I found the location slightly challenging to navigate due to noise from the main street nearby and some other aspects that could be improved.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was excellent, just a short walk from the subway and surrounded by plenty of dining and nightlife options. The service was very friendly and helpful, even though the rooms were uncomfortably hot. On the downside, the price felt a bit steep for what we received, considering the discomfort. Overall, while the hotel has great potential with its friendly staff and fabulous location, the temperature issue could definitely use some improvement.

I had a decent stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean with some amenities, plus the location was fantastic—so close to subway stations and lots of eateries!

I had a decent stay at this hotel, which is located right in the Sinchon district and very close to the subway. The rooms were clean but a bit small, and while the hotel had helpful staff, the service could use some improvement. The nearby area is lively, which adds some character, but being in the red light district might not be for everyone. Overall, it's a fair value for the price, especially with amenities like free Wi-Fi and large TVs in the rooms.
