Rating Details

9.0 Exceptional 186개 리뷰

3-star hotel within a 5-minute walk from Sinchon Station. Strengths include excellent station accessibility and convenient kiosk check-in. It's a new building, so it's clean. However, room sizes can be somewhat small. Close to Namdaemun Market and Gyeongbokgung Palace, suitable for university students and young travelers.
