Reviews
Joey from United Kingdom (10/10)
Very convenient location as you could just take the Airport express to Gongdeok station directly and then walk around 8 minutes (even though there was a slight incline). The room was well equipped with good quality amenities. The room was a very decent size for 1 person, there was a huge double bed, which was rather comfortable. The room came with a washing machine with detergent tablets so cleaning your dirty clothes was very easy and also drying your clothes in the room was super quick (half a day and all your clothes are dry). A very large Samsung fridge & freezer. The air conditioner was also a Samsung which worked well and was quiet to use. Reliable High speed Wifi provided.

공덕역이랑 가까워서 접근성이 좋았고, 지하철 이용해서 홍대랑 이태원같은데 다녀오기 편했어요. 공덕시장도 바로 붙어있어서 맛집도 많아 좋았습니다. 깨끗하고 침대도 아늑해서 이용하기 좋았습니다. 😀
