The tatami-style interior made me feel like I was staying in a real Japanese ryokan. The calm atmosphere was perfect for relaxing and unwinding.

There was plenty to do in the room, so I didn’t even feel the need to go out. I spent time listening to music on the Bluetooth speaker and flipping through the comics.

My room didn't even had a window. So I stayed a week in the darkness. Never ever experieced a thing like this. No idea exept from my watch about the time. I wasn't aware about the wetter situation. And that for a week. The staff was not able to speak Englissh. During my whole stay my sheets were never changed and my room wasn't cleaned at all. This isn't my thing

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Do not recommend if traveling alone as hotel is hidden on a very dark street which my taxi could not find so I had to walk around to find it. Also it does not appear to be a proper hotel but a small apt building converted but did not expect much considering it is a budget hotel. Room was clean but hallways were dark and did not seem clean.

Nettes kleines Tatamizimmer, aber 2 Minuspunkte. Erstens täuscht für Hotelbeschreibung, es gibt keinel japanisches Heißwassertauchbrcken für die Gädte sondern nur ein privates für ein Zimmer. Zweitens gibt es keine Duschtasse, also schwimmt das ganze BadezimmerDie Unterkunft ist eine Stunde mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln vom Zentrum Seoils gelegen.
