Acceptable stay, some issues present

excellent locationeasy accesselectric kettleawful pillowflat pillowdeactivated keycard
The hotel location I found to be excellent. It was very close to two different subway stations. There were multiple palaces within walking distance. The hotel also included an electric kettle. I found this made making my simple instant coffee very doable.
Pillows in the bedroom felt awful. I found they were too flat. I could not get a good night's sleep because of the pillow. The keycard kept getting deactivated. I was not supposed to have magnets or phones near the keycard.

the suite was really spacious and clean. i found amenities for the kitchen and appreciated the included tv and wifi. insadong street and the subway were only a one-minute walk away. i thought the location was awesome!!!
there were only five pillows provided in my apartment and when i asked for extras, as i was travelling with children, i received only four lumpy pillows.

The unit included a washing and drying unit and a well-equipped kitchen. it had everything my family needed. the style felt modern and simple. i especially liked the location which is close to many attractions and public transport. We were able to check in early and store our bags (that was very convenient!).
