The location was the best - just an escalator away from the MRT which brings you from/to Gimpo AND Incheon airport. It is literally located in the heart of Hongdae, offering so many shopping and eating options. Breakfast was an added bonus, which had lovely variety and was delicious!

Sound insulation is not very good, but thanks to the counter staff for helping to deal with the noise problem immediately. The location is super convenient, Located in the business district, next to the subway station, the pick-up point for one-day activities is also nearby. Good thing is you can take out the breakfast if you’re trip start very early. The buffet start at 6:30.
