"Just as the reviews said, the room and bathroom were clean, which was a relief.
While it's not too far to walk from the nearest station, Geumcheon-gu Office, it does take about 20 minutes, so I recommend taking a taxi from the main road.
The hotel is in a multi-tenant building, with the front desk on the fourth floor. I was having trouble finding the entrance, but a local man guided me to the elevator. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, including a Starbucks, Mega Coffee, and a convenience store. There's also a small Oryang.
For some reason, the Wi-Fi in my room wouldn't connect to my smartphone, and it wasn't even showing up on the network, so the front desk staff helped me connect to another Wi-Fi network. I appreciated their prompt response, even though I don't speak Korean. The hotel also had instructions to contact the front desk if I wanted towels changed or the room cleaned, but they did so without me having to contact them, which was very helpful."
