✅clean
✅good smell
✅price reasonable (compare with location and all amenity provide)
✅looks new (i think it’s newly open)
✅Big TV (have netflix and blah blah)
✅Can Drop the baggage before checkin
❌but i don’t like the time to checkin i think it expolit customer and abnormal time checkin 22:00pm and checkout within 11-12:00 pm. Not fair for customer and not even stay over 1 night24 hr. “Please thinking about this point”

GGuest UserAlthough check-in was late, I was able to store my luggage and didn't mind the late return. Since it was a premium room, I was glad to have a bathtub, but when I drained it, the water flowed all the way to the toilet, so I only used the shower the next day. The toilet paper was flushable.
Unusually for Korea, I received a bag with a toothbrush and amenities at check-in. Yeongdeungpo Station is about 10 minutes away, and Yeongdeungpo Market Station is just under 10 minutes, but the bus stop is close by, making bus travel easy. It's right off the main street, so I wasn't scared even late at night.

AArikeadeThe location is very good and it is near lots of food place. The room is very clean and the staffs are very friendly helping us get taxi and showing us the directions. 10/10 honestly!! Don’t have an actual pic of the room but the picture is the food literally opposite on the other side of the road 🤤

GGuest UserIt was nice that they let us take one drink per person, and the room was spacious and clean, which was nice😍 The staff were all very friendly! It was such a great experience that my Japanese friend said he wanted to stay here again when he comes to Korea❤️ I'm glad you made good memories.

EEric N.Self check in, you scan the QR code at the desk and send your confirmation and passport through text, i did it with whatsapp. Then they give you the code to the door. Room is very minimalist: you get a fridge, a water room, a TV, and AC, which are all very decent. Don’t expect an amenity kit. The bed sheet had some old stains (seems like it has been washed but unable to get rid of the stain). I tried to not look at it and ignore it. But otherwise my sleep was good. Room is big enough that I could open my suitcases freely.

GGuest UserThe bed in room 135 was narrow and small, and the mattress was extremely uncomfortable. No extra bed could be added, and an extra blanket cost 15,000 Korean Won. The facilities were basic. The bathroom had a heated bidet toilet seat. The toilet was prone to clogging, but when I called the front desk, a service staff member came up immediately to fix it. A lot of waste wouldn't flush, but the maintenance person fixed it in five minutes, and it was perfectly clean. Breakfast was very rich and delicious. The staff were polite, friendly, and efficient. The location was very convenient. The pressure cooker in the picture contains stewed rice, which was quite tasty.

MmunimunitantanThe room looks exactly like the pictures. The bed was really comfortable and clean, with no strange smells (housekeeping came daily to clean and empty the bins). The bathroom was spacious, making for a pleasant shower experience. We chose a quad room, and there was enough space to spread out my luggage. There are also lockers for valuables, but you need to bring your own padlock. The accommodation is on the third floor with no elevator, so it's a bit of a struggle if you have large luggage like I did. Also, the beds don't have curtains, which can make you feel a bit exposed. Since the room is small, any noise, like using the toilet in the middle of the night, is amplified, and I worried about disturbing others. However, for the price, I'm very satisfied! No complaints at all!

JJadeyCMy third stay and this time round trying the Deluxe Dbl Room w no windows, which didn't bother me at all normally except they turn on heating which made the room extra stuffy since imo the weather wasn't very cold. The ventilation fan was also not working in the bathroom.
Luckily, there was a dehumidifier that kept some air circulation. I obviously couldn't leave the door open, so I just barely slept through the night. Luckily this time I only stayed one night.
Apart from this small incident, everything is still good, cleanliness, amenities, location etc etc.
The size of this room is really just nice as compared to the single room. There is a table, stool and fridge.
Will still recommend and definitely will return next trip.
5.8/10
Mmoo257It's only two minutes' walk from the nearest station and has excellent access.
There is a convenience store right next to the hotel, and there are 24-hour restaurants nearby, so it's convenient.
A refrigerator, dryer, and smartphone charger are provided in the room.(i-phone&type-c only)
If there is no staff at the front desk when you check in, you will need to obtain your room number using sns.
As others have written, the cleaning situation leaves room for improvement.
However, you will be able to stay at a very reasonable price, so I think it would be a good idea to bring slippers and other things to make up for the parts of the floor that are not well cleaned.
