  The subway exit is right in front of the hotel haha.. so convenient!
  The AC system is so sufficient. It was freezing during the days we visited Seoul. It was like minus 16°C but we didn't feel a bit of coldness inside the room, warm and cozy. Very nice. The carpet is also super clean.

  The hotel offers basic facilities and it’s nothing really fancy. It somehow feels like a business hotel with the most straightforward amenities and nothing excessive. However, I really enjoyed my stay there. The room was spacious enough and clean, the bed comfy, and what I really enjoy is that there are outdoor benches, chairs and tables outside the hotel. A 7-11 is only a minute walk away. It’s nice to just be able to get snacks and drinks, and have a place to chill that is not inside a hotel room. I didn’t include breakfast into my stay, but because of the proximity of shops (COEX shopping mall is about 5-10min walk away) I got my breakfast/lunch with ease. If it’s coffee you want that goes beyond the limited offer inside the room, the hotel seems to operate a small coffee shop on the ground floor. Samseong train station is about 30 meters away, which underground passage takes you to the COEX malls which offers plenty of restaurants and shopping opportunities.
  
  The lady who cleaned my room is super sweet. I always have my do-not-disturb sign on cause I don’t need my room cleaned every day, but she knocked on the door anyways (maybe because she thinks I got the sign on by accident) to make sure I have enough water in the fridge. I’m grateful, cause I totally needed my water refilled daily in my fridge. That was a good call on her behalf.
