I had such a lovely stay! The hotel is conveniently located right by the MTR exit with a lift, which makes it super easy to manage your luggage. Plus, it's just a hop away from the airport railway, so you won't have to trek through the subway for too long. And if you love shopping, you're in luck—it's really close to the vibrant Hongdae area, filled with plenty of delicious food options!

The complimentary breakfast was very delicious. There were many, many choices of food, both traditional western breakfasts (eggs, bacon, cereal, toast) and Asian (fresh, hot noodles, kimchi, sesame balls). There was fruit, juices, and coffee. The rooms were small but great for us. The Hongdae area had lots of things to see.

This hotel was super noisy. Of all the hotels we stayed at in South Korea, this was my least favorite. I could hear everything happening outside and inside the hotel. Room was small and the bathroom was cramped (plus door had large gaps to the toilet so it lacked privacy). Would not recommend
