What locals say
A budget pick with good value, according to Korean guests. Rooms are fairly clean, bathrooms are big with a tub, blackout curtains help you sleep and staff are warm and helpful. It sits on a main road, which solo travelers find reassuring, though corner rooms can hear some traffic. A few older reviews mention smoke smells, which recent guests say they did not notice. Lotte World is about 12 minutes by taxi.
