Rooms are small (to be expected) but have everything you need. Incheon airport bus stop (Ibis Hotel) and Euljiro 1-ga Station are just around the corner. Can get noisy due to the location but should quieten by 11pm once the shop’s shut. Entrance into building is a little hard to find but it’s next to a cafe called Metcha. ##### Melissa Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Yee Fat Nov 29, 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort In the room, no even have cup but available of refil water as I need water to take pil at night as we are staying at 5th floor, all the cups are located at 6th floor.
