I made a huge mistake and booked one day less than I planned to stay. On the day I was actually supposed to check out, I had gone somewhere far from the hotel without checking out and they contacted me letting me know i needed to check out. Even though check out is 11, they gave me until 1pm but of courae i couldnt make it back in time. I called them to check if I could book one more night and they said it was no problem and said I could come back when it's convenient for me to pay and extend my stay. I was really thankful for this because the problem was caused by my mistake.
In terms of the room, it's quite spacious. It's industrial style. The bathroom has a modern toilet with as many or more functions than a Japanese toilet. The bath tub is massive.
Keep in mind, this hotel doesn't do complimentary housekeeping unless you stay for 7 or more days, they don't regularly bring towels to your room or come collect your garbage, you must go and get towels from reception and dispose of your rubbish. The room doesn't provide too much stuff but just the necessities like medium fridge, hair dryer, body wash, conditioner, shampoo, face towel, bin. For me this was perfect because I don't often use the other amenities in a hotel so it ends up being a waste usually. I'm also usually okay without housekeeping everyday so it felt more private for me.
The hotel gym is new and clean, I also tried the brunch cafe downstairs and that was quite good too.
The only bad point is that it's quite far from Hongdae station. Around a 15-20 minute walk. When making plans, you should take thst into account so you're not late. If you don't mind the walk, it's really nice because the location is very quiet and there's lots of restaurants, cafes, bakeries and convenience stores along the way.
Honestly while staying here, it felt like I was living here in Korea rather than staying in a hotel.
