Lottes to like about this hotel:)
I really enjoyed my stay here. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. My only gripe was the fact that the sink design could’ve been a little better, when I would wash my hands I would always touch the basin of the sink. I’m a little germphobic and I constantly had to be careful not to touch the basin of sink. It was annoying.
The gym was ok but could use better fitness equipment and I did like that they had a laundromat.

Mostly ok but small annoyances
Mostly ok but room has strange angles that felt claustrophobic after a while and overall the hotel is showing its age — dirty tile grouts, old carpet, grime under the bathroom sink. Front desk staff is extremely cold, curt, and unhelpful. Breakfast is fine but unlike GLAD across the street, they don’t offer plain yogurt here, but only the sugar-added yoplait type in plastic. Also, they don’t tell you when you check in but don’t lose your room key or it’ll cost you KRW 10,000.

Good location. Nothing outstanding but nothing bad
The room is average. Nothing outstanding and no service to speak of. However, nothing really bad either. For the HKD1800 I paid, I can't say its value for money. The only outstanding thing is the proximity to the Metro, which I think is closer than its rival Glad Mapo hotel. However, it is quite a distance to walk from the AREX floor to the hotel within the station if you have even 1 piece of luggage to wheel around.
