The location was convenient for our purposes at the price point. Staff was not friendly at all nor accommodating, or welcoming. Almost mo lobby area at all to sit for a break. Definitely not a place I would recommend. The room was large with a sitting area - so that was nice. The bathroom was huge. The hallways were not air conditioned-so you get quite sweaty during a long wait for the slow elevators during our summer visit

I stayed there for 5 nights with my family. We rented 3 rooms. They did not change bed sheets and pillow covers the entire time we were there. Adaptors were required a security deposit of 10,000 won. They gave 1 room key & the room required a key for lights to be turned on & elevators to be used. It meant we had to leave the lights off if one of us were to run down the street to the store. Front desk clerks were not very friendly when we would greet them with a hello. Silence was there response. I didn’t feel like they were very hospitable. Metro is 5 minutes away. Bus station in the front. Some restaurants nearby. Location was decent.
