Love this hotel. Top of the class. Stayed in 14sqm room for solo guest. Thought it will be small and squeeze but it isn't. Well designed and functional room. Front desk staffs always served with a smile. Very welcoming.

Free mini ramen served at 9PM and Yakult outside hot spring bath during morning. Free coffee, tea and ice water in lobby. Small breakfast area but quite good selection of food.

3 mins stroll to nearest train station. Get to Gangnam shopping belt easily. Lots of food options in small streets.

Highly recommend to book room including breakfast.

⛔ the walls in the room had spots, the room had a "wall of the next building View".
Could hear air conditioning and water in the toilet all night. Overall the room was not cozy and dirty.

✅ Nice tiny spa. Free ramen, dessert. Great location

Located conveniently, but fundamentals were missing. My room was not clean where I found someone else’s underwear in the basket. I was shocked and staffs were apologetic. I had to change my room twice due to the room either being dirty or fans not working. It was extremely annoying. Due to the experiences I had, I wouldn’t return.

It's as good as other dormy inn branches, with stable quality. The downside is that it's a bit far from the subway station, and you need to walk uphill to get back to the hotel. Other than that, it's very good!

First time I remember staying at this chain. Love it.

- Laundry machines in Onsen. Washer is free (whaaatttt???), dryer is where you need to pay. Washer being free means you can separate some of your laundry like white vs dark. Dryer is big and strong. One cycle and my stuff were dry. But again, maybe I didn't have much.
- Room is clean, and spacious as well.

Overall, good experience, going to try dormy inn in Japan next time.
