Excellent toilet!
Very good location to be close to train station and activities. Older hotel, daily cleaning, fridge, tea/ coffee in room. Good view and excellent toilet with seat warmer, options of wash and blow dry for tushy.

Poor standard and rude staff
From arrival it was bad through to check out. Our room was dirty and obviously not cleaned, the decor was poor and shabby, you could clearly see stains on wood floor, stains around toilet etc. We arrived at the hotel to a large group of protesters based on sacking some staff 5 years ago and they are actually camped outside the door. We spoke to the reception staff regarding our room and they were just rude to us, they did however offer us another room for the 4 nights for an extra 600 euros. It took 2.5 days before our room was cleaned despited repeatedly complaining. The cleaning staff have priorities over the lift and you can be some time fir its free. I left a 5 euro note in the room as it was no use in Korea, when we arrived back in the evening it had gone and someone had also gone through our possessions. The 5 euros was given back to me the following day by the cleaner. I certainly would not stay thrre again nor would i recommend it.

Room was very large and had all the amenties, but could not control the temperature of the room. Consequently, we were very hot. Also, the shower was at a very awkward height. Felt like we were being blasted each time we were showering.

Good location for traverse. But employees’ English is not that good enough for communication.
Air conditioner in the room can not be used by room live person, only by hotel.
Old style.

The hotel is centrally located, very clean and convenient to all the tourist spots. The location is very close to the station.
I do not know the issues but I just wish that we were notified about the on going strike between the employees and the owners.
I felt very uncomfortable and anxious coming and going through the picketers that I need to wear my mask, sunglasses and a hat in order to hide my face.
Could you please note in your website about this strike so that we have a choice of other hotels. This was very inconvenient for us as a tourist to feel uncomfortable and uneasy crossing the picketers. It was a horrible feeling to do this.

While the hotel staff is very good, the facilities are old and the rooms smell a bit of drainage.
The windows could not be opened and it was too hot at night in November in Korea, which disturbed my sleep. I guess it can't be helped that most hotels in Korea have air conditioning controlled throughout most of the hotel...

Hotel to avoid
Bed was run down. Room slippers were recycled. Slippers were made from PU leather but it feels like 10 years old. The back of the bedroom slippers had dirt and dust. Most doors could not close fully with a few hinges coming off if you were to close it with just a little force. There was no sweeping of the room and you could see a layer of dust on the phone's screen after a night. The ceilings were moldy. The whole hotel was a basically a hotel from the 70s or 80s without any renovation or refurbishments. To make matters worse. They had a group of peaceful rioters camping in front of the main door. Singing, chanting and blasting very loud music from very early in the morning.
På plussidan är att det var helt och rent, och låg väldigt nära allt det som vi ville göra i Myeongdong.
På minussidan är att det var ett ganska slitet hotell, att de envisades med att enbart ge oss tre handdukar och tre vattenflaskor trots att vi var fyra som bodde i rummet. Vi fick också en del myggbett när vi sov trots att vi inte såg några myggor i rummet när vi var vakna (bodde på 12:e våningen och kan inte förstå hur de tog sig in…). Överlag ett helt okej hotell.
The location is excellent, but the bath towel was too old. I suggest replacing it with a new one.
