Rating Details

9.3 Exceptional 1,087개 리뷰

Single room hotel within a 5-minute walk from Hongik University Station. Features a decent bedroom and kitchen, with reasonable pricing as a strong point. However, there may be a moldy smell. Adjacent to Myeongdong and the National Museum of Korea, it is suitable for travelers seeking value for money and city exploration.
