"This hotel offers excellent value for money at its price point, no wonder it's a top choice for K-pop fans.
Location: It's close to Mapo Station (Line 5) and Gongdeok Station. If you're flying in/out of Gimpo Airport, the direct subway connection is very convenient. Taking a taxi also saves a lot of time compared to getting to Gangnam. It's also very close to Yeouido and Hongdae, making it an ideal place for younger travelers to stay.
Hotel Facilities: The room was a little larger than those I've stayed in at Mapo Grand and Gangnam L7. The downside is that it's a bit old, so the style and facilities feel a bit dated. The upside is that the soundproofing on the windows facing the street is excellent. When I checked in, I requested a room away from the elevator and more secluded, and they accommodated my request, so there wasn't much noise from the hotel corridor, which I was very happy with.
Staff: The male front desk staff who checked me in spoke Chinese and was very friendly. He fulfilled all my requests for a non-smoking, high-floor room away from the elevator for quietness. When returning by taxi, the hotel security guard would also proactively help open the door. For a hotel at this price point, they really do a great job.
Summary: I'll definitely be back. For such an affordable hotel, what more could you ask for?"
