The room was bigger than I expected. It’s enough space for 2 people. I checked in via calling the stuff and they tell us the password for the room. The other people do the same, but they just repeat after stuff telling the password so I feel it’s insecure because if there are other people in the reception area, they hear the number.

The room was freezing cold all night I slept in my puffer jacket. I did report to staff and they said they would turn the heat up but it was still cold. Shower was hot thankfully but this is not suitable for winter

Good location. No staff at reception. Warmer was on in the room’s floor but have they forget the customers luggages and goodies they bought are place on the floor and it melted the chocolates and plastic material luggages. Online check in is fast and efficient but if we need to re-print the confirmation flight and seat number for claims is it able to do so? I have tried but unable to retrieve again … if after the confirmation and can email an soft copy with flight and seats confirmation will be great.

I asked for the room to be clceaned once and only the trash can was emptied. The toilet was not cleaned and the sheets were not changed. You have to change the towels yourself. My room was right at the entrance, so I could hear everybody coming in and out. Nobody respected the silence sign. One day contruction was done right infront of my room and I was not informed that it was going to happen. Unfortunately not worth it.

友達と2人で2泊しました。ホンデイック駅からも近く、弘大通りなど栄えてるスポットも近いのでホテル周辺で観光を楽しめます。フロントはなく無人なので入口すぐにある電話で部屋番号&パスワードを聞いてチェックインします。バストイレも綺麗ですが浴槽は無くトイレと同じスペースにあります。共用キッチンにはコンロ、ウォーターサーバー、冷蔵庫があり自由に使えます。またソウルに来たら泊まろうと思えるホテルです。
