My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were lovely and comfortable with daily turn-down service, but the thin walls between rooms were a bit of a downside. The staff was super sweet, friendly, and helpful, though some operational communication issues were noticeable.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room I was given had noise issues both day and night, especially being near the bars, although it was spacious and clean. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being friendly while others were rude. The hotel's location in Itaewon was convenient with plenty of dining options nearby, but it could get noisy with rowdy guests. The dining experience was average at best, lacking variety and quality. Despite some shortcomings, the facilities were decent overall.
