The location is in heart of Hongdae. If you are looking for entertainment in Hondae area, this hotel should be your first choice. Parking is 10,000 won with in-and-out privilege. Staffs are super nice. Room is little small, but has everything you need and very clean. We had trouble with slow drain sink, but technician came within 15 minute and fixed it. There are tons of places to shop and drink and have fun. Super convenient with subway and buses. Highly recommended if you want some fun, and need comfy place to rest.
Excellent snd prompt service. Staff was helpful and polite. Highly recommended to stay. Location wise, hotel was well situated near train station (to get to airport and other major areas), bus stops, main roads for taxi, as well as a bustling area for shops and food.
