Adequate Stay With Some Drawbacks

The hotel is in a good location. Public transportation is easily accessible with the subway across the street. I found the cleaning staff very helpful .

The room looked dated with some fixtures showing age. I found the lighting options in the room severely limited.

Convenient and comfortable downtown stay

convenient location excellent shopping several restaurants

I appreciated the convenient location with the public bus stop right outside. Airport transportation was easy. The nearby Lotte Duty Free provided excellent shopping (i actually bought a watch!). Several restaurants in the area made dining out simple.

The room temperature was a little too warm for me at night. I couldn't seem to cool it down effectively.
