Good value for money and clean

This was my first time visited Korea, and I stayed in this hotel on 31 may-5 june 2023. I was got confused on the first time I arrived because I can't find the reception and it was no staff standby to assist and directing. Apparently, the lobby area is on the 4th floor (press L in the lift). The first floor is only the bakery shop and concierge (but nobody was there when I arrived). And no any signage either. The lobby area is modern and has a good interior. All of the staffs are all well mannered, friendly and helpful, some even speak good English. The room size is not too big, but still fair. I like the bathroom with shower head. it was clean and the lighting of the room is good. But unfortunately, the main reason I chose this hotel in this area was because I want to have a room with Han River view. It was named 'Standard Han River View Double Room', so I had a huge expectation it would really provided a good view of Han River. In fact, the building was not directly face to Han River (a little bit cross 45 degree) and was blocked with other higher surrounding buildings. and most disappointing, it doesn't have a full wide window, the window was separated by a thick wall in the middle. (I forget to took a proper photo, so I screenshot from my video to my boyfriend). I asked the staff whether we could have a room with full wide window and he said that all rooms' window configuration are all same. so i feel my hussle was really in vain to intentionally move to another hotel since my previous hotel located much more strategically to my itinerary (and actually has a bigger room size and cheaper -- i consider this is more expensive because of the brand and the location). The hotel location itself is actually very convenience because it has a direct bus stop in front of, and Yongsan station is literally across the hotel. Another good point, it also has 24 hour of coin laundry in the building (cost 3,000 won for laundry and 3,000 won for dryer). u can directly buy the detergen+softener for 1,000 won in the vending machine in the laundry room. Overall besides the Han River disappointing expectation, i can say that my stay experience here was lovely. The cleanliness of room, helpful and fluent English staffs were all great.

Hotel seems to be getting a little old. Lots of distressing cracks in the stairwell… Elevator takes FOREVER because of the parking they allow underground. The service desk people look like they could use a break because the same guy was there morning, noon, and night. Rooms smell like smoke and cigarette buds in window sill. Otherwise excellent location close to the subway. Close to coex mall and other major stations. Easy to navigate with with decent food (lots of western food?)

Although it is a motel, it was cleaned neatly, It was a decent size, so it is recommended if you are not particular about it. Towels, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and mini soap are provided in the bathroom. Lotions and milky lotions were also provided. Amenities such as toothbrushes and body towels can be purchased for 1000w. Check-in is from 23:00, so it was convenient for me, who often arrives at the airport at night. Because it is a motel, there are quite a few couples.

The location is good and there are many restaurants and bars around.

The room is relatively new, but the sheets are dirty. The service staff does not agree to change the new sheets. There are many restaurants around, but it is not easy to take a taxi. The hotel requires check-in at 10 o'clock in the evening. Everyone must be optimistic about the time.

I was able to stay with peace of mind! The staff were also very kind!

It's the second time we stayed at this hotel, because of good location (near Yongsan train station). However, we had a bad experience. We booked room with sofa bed (for kid) and we asked them to prepare it after we check-in, finally they didn't do it, we can back after dinner and we had to try to reach front desk (not easy, hard to reach!) fi ally someone came around 21:00 and kids were so sleepy. Second day, we wanted to order some room service, they said it will take 1h30 to even get some French fries! We had to cancel and order from outside hotel for delivery. At 10pm our daughter was sick and vomited, we tried to call front desk to get some cleaning products and new bed sheets, we had to call maybe 30 times! Line always busy, terrible... Finally they could arrange a new room but it was 11pm. Sunday morning (last day for us) we wanted to go for breakfast buffet, we were told to wait more than 30min to gets seat, kids so hungry so we gave up and went to 1st floor instead (near lobby). They were sold out of croissants, so we bought some snacks instead at the same place than the coffee shop of hotel. See photo, and they told us we Cannot eat them inside hotel, it was apparently only for ”take away”. What a joke! I related everything at check out, they said sorry, and that's it (we left) we will never come back.
