バスは広いけど　ガラスの壁にお掃除が出来てない（掃除してないから　歯磨き粉？の白い汚れが気になった）この値段でしたら　充分満足です。女性客が多いなと思ったのと　立地条件がとても良く　地下鉄の駅も近い　広蔵市場にとても近くて　東大門も近い　明洞まで歩いていけないこともなく　もしまた行くようなことがあれば　利用したい。タオルも自分で持ってくる　お掃除はしてくれないけど　私はその方ご気が楽だった。ホテルはリノベーションしてきれいだが　まわりのたてものがかなりふるそうだった。

寝に帰る分には最適です。 口コミを見て行ったので入り口で迷うことはありませんでしたが、2階までスーツケースを運ぶ必要があります。 いつでも出入りできて、最終日も早く出れて良かったです。 廊下にゴミ箱があるので溜まったら自分で出してました。 頼んだら掃除もしてくれます。 枕元にコンセントは無いように見えましたが、差し込み口は沢山あって良かったです。洗面所にもあります。 ドライヤーは固定です。 シャワーの出し方が分からなくて連絡したら、日本語のできる方が部屋まで来て教えてくれました。 特に変な臭いがすることも無く、快適に過ごせました。 お世話になりました。

広蔵市場まで徒歩5分程度で、とても使いやすい。 乙支路4街駅もすぐそばにあり、清渓川沿い。 立地が良いです。 パスタがありませんが、シャワーブースはちゃんと仕切られているのがよかった。 部屋には冷蔵庫、ドライヤーあり。 布団やシーツ、清潔でした。 オーナーもフレンドリー出て日本語が通じて、とてもよかったです。

가격대비 좋았습니다.

가격을 생각하면 불평을 할수가 없지만 조금 아쉬웠던 점이... 침대 아래쪽 청소 상태와 수건에서 제 경우 40% 정도의 확율로 냄새가 나서 사용하기 힘듦... 좋왔던 점은 지하철, 편의점, 재래시장 가까워서 지갑에 놀고 있던 온누리 상품권 잘 사용 했습니다. 싱글룸 예약 했는데 트윈침대 있는 방으로 배정 받아서 방도 좁지 않았습니다. 잘 지내고 돌아 왔습니다 . 감사합니다.
