I have to cancel my room and leave the property right after I checked in cause my room wasn’t clean enough I mean toilet bowl was never checked by staff or housekeeping after previous guest left. Horrible experience for me to look at the toilet bowl. Staff at front desk was nice and asked me to switch the room but I couldn’t handle that bad experience so I left the property and ask for the refund. I’m hoping that this hotel which run by Lotte hotel group please triple check the room before assigning to next guest.

Hotel was just 1 minute walk to Hongik University station. Close to many eateries and Hongdae shopping streets. For nightlife lovers, this is a good location for you to stay. Booked this hotel because of their swimming pool as my son love to swim. Upon check-in, staff told us there is a fee of 30,000 won if we want to use the pool. Then told us that children is not allowed in the pool. Was shocked as these are not stated in Expedia website. My son was disappointed but lucky it was only a 1 night stay for us. The room is clean but the bed pillows are so soft and thin that my neck become stiff after 1 night sleep. Didn't sleep well the whole night. Mattress is also sunken.

Nice design, amenities, location, good value. Could be cleaner, e.g. the sink in my room was smelly, overall it was not as polished as I would expect from a 4-star hotel. Still, overall good.

I’ve recently stayed in this hotel before and can say my 1st experience in the hotel was better then my 2nd trip. The room wasn’t cleaned properly with dirt being in the carpet and hair in the bathroom around the toilet and sink area. But other then that my stay was nice and the area is really good.

Excellent location, right by the hongdae train station. Reception is on the 21st floor, which has an excellent view. However, the lifts are always crowded and there was always a need to wait for lifts. Apart from the construction nearby, the noise from the traffic can be heard in my room as it was facing the main road. There will be angry honks at night - so be warned. I had the chance to stay at mercure ambassador hotel (which is right across the main road from this hotel) and it was extremely soundproof in comparison.
