No breakfast in the hotel, so had to look around. Since it was November the ac has been switched off centrally, and it was so hot, not a pleasant experience.

The only thing that upset me was, I saw a cockroach on my lamp table when I woke up to drink some water. May be the rooms should be pest treated.

It is right next to the subway 5 line and on that line it’s easy to connect to all the other lines in the subway system. The Seoul Botanic Garden is an easy walk from the hotel. Plenty of places to eat at because it’s next to a large LG business park.

Decent stay with some extras
PROS: good size room and bed, fairly comfortable bed (might be considered firm by some). Large window to provide good natural light. Close walk to public transportation. Has small kitchen and washer/dryer. Tea kettle with tea and instant coffee. Good sized bathroom. CONS: lamps wouldn’t turn off, so had to unplug them. No laundry soap with washer, so need to bring your own. Also, instructions only in Korean. Instant coffee was horrible. Bathroom door didn't close all the wall. 8.5/10
