Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel location is convenient. But other than this, the room is dusty, cleaning service is not done at all, furniture is broken and old, bed sheet is not clean, and the worst condition is the smoke smell is full of the room while it’s emphasized it should be a smoke free room. The smoke might come from outside or other rooms due to the poor window condition. The second hand smoke was outrageous and so bothering!! Have been reported to the staffs, but they couldn’t do anything helpful. Will never go again!!! I’m still suffering from the smoke as I traveled back to home!!

More like Motel
The room condition and location is good. However, this is more like motel than hotel. No closet. Bath tub has no curtain so bathroom will get soaked for sure. Bad job on soundproof so you will hear your neighbor talking or having "activity" in the night.

A love motel sold as a nice hotel
My friend and I were thoroughly disappointed with this hotel. The money we spent on this Korean "hotel" was equivalent to what I would spend on a very nice, comfortable hotel in the United States, yet there was no comparison in quality. There was dust all over the air conditioning unit, which emitted a very loud, unpleasant sound when on. The window clearly hadn't been cleaned in a long time. The soap that they provided was already opened and used. Furthermore, to our horror, there was an open condom wrapper beneath the nightstand. Also, when I was brushing my teeth, the tube that connects under the sink fell off completely and water was spraying all over the floor. The photos online are completely deceiving.
