Reviews

  • Passamon from Thailand (8/10)

    The location is the best! near subway station (sinchon ext 5) within 5 mins walking distance and near Limousine Airport Bus stop as well. Super convenient for traveling from and to Airport and to places in Seoul.

    Near many shops and malls. So, I had no hard time finding places to eat and shop. Not super crowded but not scary to walk at night alone. Near Hongdae and Ehwa station.

    Convenience store was 2 mins away which is very convenient for nighttime snacks or grabbing water or drinks.

    The staff is super friendly and reply message pretty fast. Whenever I need something, the next morning everything was solved. I was so lucky that the room was available and could be checked in before normal check-in time. So, I could sleep straight after my flight. She also allowed a bit later check-out time which was very kind of her.

    The room smelled nice. All facilities are new and clean. Universal socket was provided.

    I have no bad experiences at all while living here.
