明洞駅から近く、ホテルの近くにコンビニもありますホテルはこぢんまりで2泊3日で一度もスタッフに会いませんでした荷物もフロントの横に勝手に置いていくスタイルで、カメラで監視してます〜みたいな感じでしたが本当に大丈夫かな？とは思いましたチェックインも機械でセルフ EVはなく荷物持って階段です部屋はまあ価格からしたら必要充分狭いと言えば狭いけど韓国あるあるでシャワーカーテンや仕切りはなくシャワーの時周りも濡れます浴室用スリッパ、部屋用スリッパありますお湯の水圧は弱めですがシャワーとしてはまあ大丈夫なくらいドライヤーは風圧あって優秀充電用コンセントがありましたか使えないやつもあり、確認が必要でしたオンドルのせいか部屋がとにかくあったかいというか暑いシャワー後とか暑くて大変窓も開かないし冷房？って思いました (窓はありますが塞がれてました) 明洞駅から少し入ったところなせいかとても静かでした使いませんでしたが3階に共同スペースがあり洗濯機や電子レンジがありました長期滞在なら便利そうですタオルは玄関横に補充分と、使用後のものを入れるところがありましたまたソウルに行くことがあればリピートありな気がしました
