• Olga from United Kingdom (7/10)

  I was pleased with the room even though it was dark/grey.
  I believe they should renovate and brighten the colour .
  Good location by taking the bus or walking distance "if we like walking"
  The Seoul station is about 7mn by taxi or 20mn by walking.
  They don't speak English that much but with body language, words by words or using app translation we will get there.
