AI Summary
The accommodation provides comfortable bedding and a great location near subway stations, making it ideal for budget-conscious travelers. However, some guests found the capsules to be too small.

It’s fine for short travels but wouldn’t recommend for long stays. Service is really kind and helps you out. Not recommended for people, who need to wash their clothes this doesn’t provide it. You need to wash your clothes at a coin washer. So yeah extra money.
Close to Line 2.

I recently stayed at this location, and while it was easily accessible from nearby bus stations, there were a few issues worth noting.
Firstly, the security of the facility could be improved. The outdoor door was never locked, and I was never asked for a password, even when returning late at night, which left me feeling a bit uneasy.
Additionally, there were quite a few mosquitoes around, so I highly recommend bringing mosquito repellent. The cleanliness of the toilets was also disappointing, so I’d advise having some antiseptic with you as well.
Overall, it’s a convenient place for travel but could definitely use some improvements in both security and hygiene.

There were no amenities at all, no shared areas as kitchen or living room were available at this place.
Capsule has a wooden door that you can lock with a key.

I can’t fault this place if you’re a solo traveller looking for somewhere to just stay the night. Bedding was clean and comfortable and the lockers give you peace of mind. Amenities were okay - your basic shared showers and toilets. This place was perfect for me as I was only staying the night and leaving early the next morning. A hassle free check in and out because I didn’t need to do anything, just leave when you need to.

I've been here for 5 nights. Basically everything is fine. Check-in only after 16:00. The hotel is located not far from Chungmuro Metro Station. My capsule was on the ground floor, there is also a toilet and a safe for your belongings. The bed is changed again only if you stay more than 5 days. The showers are located on the ground floor, there are shampoos and shower gels. The capsule itself is cozy, there is climate control, if you turn it off it becomes stuffy in the capsule.
Among the disadvantages, the hotel itself is located around some industrial premises, so there is always a fuss and work in this alley. Sometimes mosquitoes fly into the capsule.

Awful expirience. The AC did not work neither outside or inside the wood capsule.
I had to leave because was unbearable.

Self check in was convenient. The capsule is not very big but what to expect. It was clean and hot water was available. Good location to two metro stations (only a few minutes walk). For the price okay!
