“It was a very good hotel.”
I was looking for a hotel for a sudden trip, but I was having trouble as the hotels popular on social media were either fully booked or too expensive. I was worried because it wasn't very well-known on social media, but it turned out to be very good. Positive points: - The toilet and shower were separated. - There was a large sink area where I could put my luggage. - It was close to both the subway and the bustling area of Myeongdong (close enough to return to the restroom during shopping). - There was a sofa and table where I could relax. - The bed was comfortable. - The front desk staff was kind and lent me a power adapter and an umbrella. [Things I was a bit concerned about] - At night, I could hear the sound of doors opening and closing from other rooms (but I didn't notice it once I fell asleep since I was tired). - The room was a little dark. - One of the twin beds didn't have a power outlet, so I couldn't look at my phone while lying down. I would like to stay here again next time!

“It was a beautiful and comfortable trip.”
I stayed for 3 nights and 4 days alone. The room was spacious enough with a large closet, the shower pressure and toilet flush worked without issue, and it was very clean. I had a very comfortable stay. For consecutive nights, cleaning was scheduled every other day, but if I hung a cleaning request tab on the doorknob, they cleaned every day. What made me really happy was that, even though I stayed alone, they replenished 2 bottles of water every day. Additionally, they provided 2 towels each time, which was convenient when I wanted to take a shower in the morning. Even if I ran out of towels, I could get more at the front desk, so that was not a problem. There was a staff member at the front desk who spoke Japanese, and the check-in process was very smooth. There were about two Korean-style power outlet plugs. I forgot my adapter, but I could borrow one for free from the front desk. There were no USB ports. If I had to mention a slight inconvenience, it would be that the lighting was a bit dim, making it somewhat difficult for makeup. Also, there was only one elevator, so it took a little time to arrive. However, it is close to the station, and overall it was an extremely satisfying hotel.

“Parent-child trip”
It was convenient because it was close to the station and just a quick walk across the crosswalk to the main street of Myeongdong. The nearest station exit only had stairs, but if you walk a bit, there is an exit with an escalator, so it was easy even with a suitcase. The room was spacious and clean. I felt that the water drainage was a bit poor, but it wasn't bothersome. I stayed for two nights, and they made the bed and provided water every day, which was helpful. I would like to use this hotel again when I go to Korea!

“I was able to spend my time comfortably!”
The check-in process is smooth because there are staff who speak Japanese. The room is not too large and not too small, so it’s no problem for those who just need a place to sleep at night. When I left the room, I asked the cleaning staff on the floor to exchange towels and provide a day's worth of water, and they did so without any hesitation. Even after checking out, they stored my luggage on the same day, and I could pack in the shared space on the first floor, allowing me to enjoy Myeongdong until just before heading to the airport.
