"The hotel was very clean, with daily cleaning and friendly staff. I found the location convenient, with plenty of cafes, shops, and shopping centers nearby. Underfloor heating was available, toiletries were changed daily (coffee, tea, water, disposable slippers, disposable toothbrushes, disposable razors, etc.), and the Wi-Fi was stable.
The downsides were probably the poor soundproofing (or maybe it was just because my room was near reception and the elevator; I think it should be better on higher floors). It was cool to sleep if you lay close to the window, and it was very difficult to find parking near the hotel in the evening.
Overall, I was very happy with my stay. I think I'll stay here again next time, but I'd prefer a room higher up and further from the elevator."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect Location Right Next to Seongnam Sports Complex – A Great Stay for Active Travelers!
What truly sets this hotel apart is its unbeatable location—just a 2-minute walk from Seongnam Sports Complex, one of the best places in the area for jogging, walking, or enjoying the outdoors. If you like to start your day with some fresh air and exercise, you’ll love how easy it is to access the stadium and surrounding paths.
Aside from the amazing location, the hotel offers a very clean and comfortable stay. The room was tidy and well-maintained, and the bed was fresh and cozy, making it easy to relax after a long day. The heating and air conditioning worked perfectly, which made the room comfortable regardless of the season.
The bathroom had all the essentials, and both the water pressure and hot water were excellent. The staff were friendly, responsive, and check-in/check-out was quick and smooth. One of the staff members, who seems to be the owner, speaks excellent English, which made communication very easy.
There are plenty of restaurants and convenience stores nearby, and public transportation is very accessible, so getting around is simple even if it’s your first time in Seongnam.
Overall, this hotel is an excellent value for money and especially ideal for those who enjoy staying active while traveling. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit!"

"Personally like it because it’s very clean, and they provide free parking. The only downside is that I never expect the traffic can be this bad, from hotel to gangnam takes about an hour, for 20km journey! Nonetheless, I’d stay back this hotel in future."

"The room was a bit small, but very clean! There was no smell in the room, and the bathroom didn't feel moldy, old, or poorly cleaned at all. It was clean and odorless. The bedding was clean, so I slept comfortably.
The location is about a six-minute walk from Moran Station Exit 12, and it's at the end of a street with accommodations, so it's quiet and nice. I'd definitely stay here again!"

"The hotel is kind of old fashion and no view even though with window but necessary facilities and amenities are still provided. Walkable to AK Plaza malls and there're many kind of restaurants around. As I checked in quite late around over midnight, the receptionist helped proceeding my check-in easily within 5 mins. It's okay for short stay and if I only need a clean place to sleep. Prepare adapter with you as they might not have it for you to borrow at some case."
