The hotel's location is AMAZING!!! There is subway access right next to the building, and the airport train line is directly accessible. Plus, there is a LOTTE supermarket on level B1, super convenient.
The room looked a bit tired. I noticed a slight smell when I first entered the room. I wish there was a power point near the bed for easy phone charging.
