I agree with the previous reviewers that this hotel is a great value for money.
* The Double room was spacious enough (about 30 m2), and it has a desktop connected to the internet, an air cleaner (when was the last time you saw that in a hotel room at any class!), mini fridge, sofa and cocktail table. The Queen size bed might be a little hard for some, but for me, coming from China where the beds are even harder, it was just fine.
* Good clean bathroom, separate shower, but poor lighting.
* Great service, fast check-in/check-out, and front desk staff speak good English.
* Right next to a 711, and plenty of restaurants and bars (Korean) in the immediate vicinity.
Now a few words, and an explanation, about the location. It is on Yeouido island, which for me is an advantage. IF this is your first time in Seoul, you probably want to stay closer to downtown in Jung-gu. But if you know Seoul a little, and you've already done the Seoul tours and historical sites, then this location is great.
The hotel itself is a 3-min walk from Line 9, which interestingly is the one from/to Gimpo airport. From Gimpo you can take the AREX to Incheon, total travel time probably about half compared to the bus stuck in traffic. Also, from Line 9 you can transfer to Line 5 at Yeouido station, which will bring...I agree with the previous reviewers that this hotel is a great value for money.

Yeouido island itself has things to do and see, and it's a favorite spot on weekends or week nights for the locals. Yeouido Park is nice, Hanggang Park is nicer with restaurants looking out to Namsan on the other side and the river. The Seoul (Hanggang) river cruises start from there (a 5 min taxi ride), and if you want 5-star dining with a view, try the top floor of the 63 Building (the tallest in Seoul).More
