正直言って日本のラブホテルと変わらないですが、お風呂との仕切りがなく、湿気がすごいのと、トイレにシャワーがあるので、ビショビショのまま床が滑ります

Great place to stay at plenty of stores, places to eat, and easy access to subway, and surrounding areas. Place is small but enough for 1 or 2 people. Staff is super friendly and quick to react when you need your room cleaned or need towels. Overall, one of the better places to stay at, and I’ve been at several hotels in Seoul.
