Price was good. Location 3 blocks from Subway, 10 stops from ktx saejong station. Near the subway station is a really nice street market. Clean room, good TV channels. Nice and friendly staff. Hair dryer, good towels, tissues, fridge, kettle, Wi-Fi all in working order and clean.

Across the street was a parking garage ( honking cars ) and loud generator. Next door was some club playing loud music until 2am. No way to adjust the floor temperature. 5pm check in time is so late. Room above mine woke me up by walking on floor with shoes at 1am. Not hotels fault about guests, but thin walls and floors.

The room was absolutely beautiful and comfortable. The design was well thought out and extremely spacious. I have NEVER had a shower this huge and beautiful before. They had so many nice little details like double doors and double windows for noise reduction. I also appreciated the complementary drinks in the mini fridge, and the water bottle fridge and microwave in the lobby. It’s so close to the subway station I had an easy time getting to it and exploring Daejeon too. There’s a great shopping district with lots of restaurants just beside the place, so I feel like I didn’t get to do everything this trip. I’ll definitely be back next time I visit Korea!

3 min walk to subway station and multiple bus routes nearby. Next to Emart Trader (just like Costco). Big TV, you can cast your YouTube video. Daiso is also with a very short walk. Washlet toilet, separate shower room (so big! But no bath tub). Overall quite clean, just some details but is acceptable. No disposable toothbrush…etc due to new regulation.

Stayed for 3 nights but only got room cleaning for first night, didn’t come to clean up the rubbish after second night. Free Wi-Fi sometimes hard to connect to, but the speed is good.

When I walked in, I was in awe. It was a tiring flight and journey so I wasn't even hoping for much, just a place to crash for the night. I walked in, and the room was so spacious, comfortable and lovely with all the essentials and even more being offered completely free of charge. The fridge was stocked with fun drinks like canned roasted raisin tea and Korean cider (both were delicious), the shampoo/conditioner/body wash were very impressive... i was shocked to discover skincare and two sets of toothbrushes with mini toothpaste. There were even two sets of pyjamas given. The terrace was lovely but unfortunately, I couldn't enjoy it to the full extent because it's July, the most humid and stiflingly hot period in Korea. The bed was very comfortable, I was able to rest off at least a part of my jet lag. The breakfast was delicious. Unfortunately, the coffee machine was broken, but I didn't miss out much since I had instant coffee and a mug up in the room. Lovely overall! So grateful. The staff were so friendly and called me a taxi to where I needed to go as I didn't have data at that point and don't speak Korean.

The bathtub was leaking, but it's not a big deal because the whole room is a shower room, so the floor would've gotten wet anyway.

I loved the spaciousness, the layout of the room, the impressive WiFi, and the fact that there was a clothes steamer in the room. The breakfast was okay; perhaps an addition of protein like eggs other than just sausage would be great. The location is convenient; it is 2~3 minutes from a subway station, and there are several bus stations around it. Also, there are many restaurants, fast food restaurants, and great coffee shops surrounding it for foreigners who might want to have non-Korean meals.

I was quite satisfied with my stay. I would like to go back again. I even recommended it to my colleagues. When I go back to the city, I'll definitely be staying there. Like I said, perhaps the breakfast, while okay, can be improved.

The hotel is close to the subway station and convenience stores and cafés and shops are close by. The employees were very friendly and helped me to store my luggage before check in. Communication was easy thanks to their good English. The room was very large and the toilet and shower were in different rooms, which is not common in Korea. Breakfast was good.

I couldn't figure out, how to turn off the light in the closet, so it stayed on the whole night. Some of the tiles of the floor moved when walking on them, as if they where loose.

The place is absolute value for money. Even a standard room looks like a suite and is very comfortable. The bed was big and soft (rare for Korea). The bathroom was perfectly cleaned and facilities worked well. There were a bath and 2 shower heads. The design was modern and tidy. There were also all necessities provided. The location was reachable with public transportation and also quite.

If you don't like korean food for breakfast, don't book breakfast, as there are almost no non-korean options.

The room was a fabulous size and very clean. Located perfectly for what we needed on our visit. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful.

We did encounter 1 reception member who was not so helpful and did not even try which made it very stressful for us. If not for this encounter we would have rated a little higher. I can't say it was due to language barrier as my son speaks Korean

We booked a suite which turned out to be a full-blown two-bedroom apartment with a huge and lovely bathroom, kitchenette, etc. Beds are huge and very comfy. The hotel is on a small and quiet street just off the big commercial axis which made it quiet but also very convenient for walking around and exploring the area. Parking available, many restaurants nearby. Breakfast was not exceptional but good and catered to both Korean and western needs, which was appreciated. Good (real) coffee at breakfast!

No dishtowels in the kitchenette. Nothing else comes to mind. For a three-star hotel it was really quite nice.

The room was spacious, clean and impressively had a styler, so that I can wash my clothes easily everyday. Good location with short distance to subway stations, bus stops and several restaurants around.

I wish the hotel would have had a closet in the room. The styler was quite small to accommodate our daily winter clothes.
