I really liked the location, so close to all the shops. The metro station was only a short walk away, maybe 5-10 minutes. The breakfast was AMAZING!!! They offered four choices, all freshly cooked, including kimchi rice. I also had a great view from my room. The daily cleaning service was perfect. I always had fresh towels and water.

The lighting in the room was a bit too dark. I had some difficulty seeing things clearly.
