The room was bigger than I expected. It’s enough space for 2 people. I checked in via calling the stuff and they tell us the password for the room. The other people do the same, but they just repeat after stuff telling the password so I feel it’s insecure because if there are other people in the reception area, they hear the number.

The location is good and close to Hongjik shopping area. Host Ms Sunny is friendly but not always in the house so self service is a must. Very nice to have power adapter for foreigners. Love the kitchen and utensils available for easy meals. The keylock instruction pictures not exactly match the real one installed, so you need to know how to open the cover before you can key in the pin. Laundry service is available by telling Sunny and there is a charge, which is ok.
