This hotel was walking distance to train station, airport limo stop, myeong dong area. Cleaning staff were very nice, didn't really have much to do with front staff as we took the exit on level 1 past the restaurant which avoided the front hill.
Room was well sized and had a full size fridge and washing machine which was useful since I stayed a week.
As the room didn't have aircon, we had the fan running whenever in the room. Communal kitchen was good with water filter and bins to separate the rubbish as opposed to having it in the room.

The room was amazing - very spacious. Best room we've had in Korea.
The bathroom was small and cramped and a little dated - could be improved.
The sound proofing was poor - we could hear the people next to us, in the corridor and above us. We could also hear everyone the street (we were one level above the lobby). There were noisy people on the street past midnight. The poor sound proofing made it hard to sleep.

Good comfy short stay
Good stay for one night. Clean modern hotel. I think the bathrooms need minor renovations but still good from what I’d expect from an urban professional hotel. Quiet and dimmed windows were nice as well. Room service was available into the night but didn’t use them. Nice alleyway to get to the rest of the Main Street where restaurants and shops are.

Location is good, away from the busy shopping strip but with airport bus stop, subway
Station and even a police station nearby.
The hot water is very weak especiallyfor a cold winter.
The service didn't refill the nearly empty bath gel bottle till we requested.
The deco is a bit aged
