Not as advertised
Even though website said English speaking very little English was spoken. WiFi instructions posted in elevator all in Korean. Tv lost connection. Hallway rug on floor 5 is dirty and very dark on floor. My room number was dropped from WiFi list and used google translate to explain issue. Got answer I don’t understand. Had to call another hotel or translation service for me to explain issue. Asked for directions to coex mall didn’t know. Asked about tours said no tours but a tour pamphlet in reception area. Room was very small but clean. Shower worked well.

The middle aged lady at the front desk was very rude and told me to leave the hotel when I asked her about fixing the broken fridge. Half of the amenities are broken and my food soiled thanks to the lukewarm mini fridge.

This hotel is terrible . I do not recommended at all . The tub was leaking, when you shower they will be a lot of water on the floor . The wall is pealing. There’s bug . Ac does not work properly and the vent was not clean .Bathroom had a foul sewer smell . The room was very stuffy had to open a window to get air. The picture that they use is verrrryyyyy misleading . It does not look like that at all. Felt very unsanitary. When we slept on the bed , we were very itchy . Please find somewhere else to stay. The worst hotel I ever stayed in .

The room was very tiny and crowded not like the photos shown. The temperature of the AC can’t be adjusted so the room was hot and humid. The facilities in the bathroom didn’t work very well.

Large bath towel is the only positive thing I could find about the place. Pay a little more and book a nicer hotel. The room smelled, there was a tiny window and we couldn't air out room. No lighting at the door and it was pitch black. It felt like more like a dungeon than a hotel room. The room did not look anything like the ones pictured on Expedia
