Hi, me and my husband a foreigner who needs accommodation nearby my nephew's apartment. My nephew recommended this hotel because the location is also close to public transportation (Dapsimni subway station directly goes down with stairs, less effort. And Dapsimni Bus Stop with a lot of bus routes.) Although the staff can't speak English, my nephew help to communicate with them for check in, check out or asking for glass and water. No problem. Overall, we enjoyed stay here. Thank for all the things~~

Fine, but not worth the money

I paid for a room with a bathtub, but they placed me in a room without one. When I went to the front desk to tell them, they didn’t apologize and just yelled “Key!” And put a new keycard on the counter. The room had no remote for the air-con or heat control so even though it was 65 degrees Fahrenheit outside, the heat was on full blast with no working air conditioner to use to cool the room down.

Not a good experience 😕

First off, when I arrived, no one spoke English even though their website stated otherwise. Also, I had to move my luggage three times because each of the rooms smelled. Upon entry of the third room, I just decided to stick it out and get some rest. I completed my stay, checked out and moved to a cleaner hotel. This was not a good experience at all. I understand building are old. But, remodel them and update them so that it doesn’t smell like mold and mildew. Wasn't impressed at all.

荷物があるときには２番出口を1番近いのは３番出口

入口はカラオケと書いてあるのでわかりずらかったのですが、えきの出口が近くにあり便利でした。お部屋も思ったより広くて一人では十分でした。お風呂はなくシャワーです。

予約時は記載がなく分からないのですが、全室喫煙です。禁煙部屋をお願いしたところ、禁煙部屋はないので、なるべく匂わない部屋を用意してくださるとのことで、確かにタバコ臭さがほぼない部屋でした。その点はありがたかったです。 最寄駅から近いため、女性の一人旅に選ばれる可能性が高いと思うので、以下参考にされてください。 シャワーの温水などは十分出てきますが、施設が古いのもあり、部屋に清潔感はありません。 元々モーテル（ラブホ）だったようです。仕事で長期滞在だったのですが、午後の時間帯になると決まって明らかな喘ぎ声が聞こえてきます。（ほぼ毎日） 滞在中ダニに腕を何か所も噛まれてしまい、部屋を変えてもらえるか尋ねたところ別の階の部屋に快く変えてくださりありがたかったのですが、部屋自体がタバコ臭い上に、空調からずっとタバコの臭いが入ってきて、持参した強力なリセッシュでも太刀打ちできませんでした。 ここでも午後の時間は喘ぎ声。 とても気持ち悪かったです。 変えてもらった部屋は壁がさらに薄く、最初の部屋ではお隣りのいびき、変えてもらった部屋では午後は喘ぎ声、夜は普通に話している声が筒抜けという状況でした。

駅から1分と聞いてたのですぐ分かるかと思いましたが出口反対車線に出てしまい迷いました。出口3番、4番が近いです。普通のオフィスビルでエレベーターで3階がホテルフロント。その階からホテル客室になっていました。日本語は通じませんが女性の受付の方が帰りのリムジンバスのバス停の場所も親切に教えてくれて時間も調べてくれました。有り難かったです。

흡연이 가능해 냄새가 많이나고 창문이 작거나 막혀있어 매우 답답함

화장실이 넓어서 좋음. 그러나 흡연이 가능해 냄새가 심하고 침대가 딱딱해서 조금 불편함. 실수였겠지만 이전 사람이 사용한 쓰레기들이 의자에 남아있어 찝찝했음.

The hotel is located right next to the train station which is exist no. 4 and close to the convenience store. The room is very big and very comfortable. However, the staffs cant speak English and not very helpful and not that friendly. The location of the hotel is kinda far from the center. Further than I thought. Just because there are not many stops from the centers, doesnt mean that it will be closed to the center. Anyways, its a perfect place for a family because it can 3 people in the rooms with 2 beds. Also a good place for couple because the shower is see through.

평범한 모텔입니다. 청소가 깔끔하게 되어있어서 만족했어요. 다만 로비에서부터 전체 건물에 담배 냄새가 많이 납니다. 제 방에서는 안 나서 그나마 다행이었어요.

６０歳若者には負けない買い物好き、買い物三昧、の３日間を過ごしました。。１５回以上韓国に行っています。今まで高級ホテルからシャワーだけで浴槽がないホテルにも宿泊しましたが、このホテルは駅前でホテルから１分の所に垢すりできる地元住民の行く銭湯もあり、コンビニ、スーパーもあり便利でした。部屋も広く，浴槽も完備、床暖。夜は暑くて窓を少し開けて寝たくらいです。フロントは日本語は通じませんが、身振り手振り、簡単な英語の単語で通じました。価格も安く、これからは毎回利用しようと決めました。
