Staff is helpful and the room inside was remodeled. However, the corridor is so dark and old.

Building located in heart of downtown. You can take metro from airport and short walk.
The front desk is on 4th floor, you hit 'F' button to check-in. There is no '4' on the elevator buttons.
Shopping and food within walking distance.
Good place for price.

Highly recommend!
This hotel was great, I was hoping for a reasonably priced nice hotel. This hotel was great! It was clean, quiet even though it is in a busy part of Gwangju, and incredible value for money! Highly recommend!

Good services, nice breakfast
Good services and nice breakfast. My room wasn’t clean enough, but had pleasant air. Not soundproof from next door.

Nice hotel in industrial part of Seoul.
Hotel was comfortable and convenient. The neighborhood around is industrial so not very scenic. But easy to get around town.

Great location. Good value for the price.
Location was right in the heart of a unique part of downtown. Bars, shopping, great reastaraunts all right around the hotel. Was ok with me but could be loud at night as a dance club is nearby.
