"Second stay with my family here. While location is fantastic, there are still a few areas that can be improved. Frosted with transparent bathroom wall makes showering extremely challenging for non-couple roommates. My sister had to use towels and tapes to block the transparent area so she can shower in peace while my dad remains in the room. We are also not able to hang our towels and clothes inside the bathroom since there are no hooks available. You end up having to step into the bedroom...

If you take transit, it’s a few bus stops or few subway stations away from Myeongdong. Airport limousine bus 6001 has a stop across the street at Baiton Hotel. The staff here are very helpful. The queen room I was assigned to has lots of wear and tear and the glass panel adjacent to the sink wasn’t...
