"お勧めはしません。夏に泊まった時、部屋に無数の虫が沸いています。ゴキブリの赤ちゃんもいました。部屋に入るまでもホテル自体に虫が多いし、匂いも厳しいです。虫が大丈夫な人なら、価格は安いので泊まるメリットはあるでしょう。立地は明洞通りなどが近くにありアクセスは非常にいいです。"

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent
"ENA Suite Hotel is in a great location in Seoul, just a short walk from Namdaemun Market, City Hall Station, and plenty of restaurants. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the rooms were clean, spacious, and modern. The facilities, especially the swimming pool and self-service laundry, were a big plus and made our stay even more comfortable. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Seoul."
