Great stay! Room is a little small if you have bigger luggage but overall comfortable. Right by the bus and subway so easy to get to other parts of Seoul. Can’t wait to come back.

No staff on property. We arrived very early, and since check lin is on a kiosk, no early checkin is available. There’s also no option to leave your bags if you want to walk around before check in time. No full size bath towels available on property. The room was dark and clean, and we were able to get great sleep each night.

We were hesitant at first to continue our booking with Hotel Sept or Guwol Hotel due to the negative reviews about it here, but after staying there, we were just glad that we kept the reservation. Note there was cancellation fee if we cancel. We arrived past 10:00 pm. It was a self checkin in the main floor. We did not have the booking number but somebody on the intercom helped us. The room was clean and we can say that it was newly renovated. We had a queen bed with enough room for the the 2 big luggages and 2 carry on bags we had. There was TV, very good AC, hair blower, towels, and 2 bottled water in the fridge. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable enough. Everyday, they changed our towels, removed the trash, and replaced the bottled water. There were some things that could have been better. The first one is having a staff on site. There was nobody on site. We never met the cleaners. Second, the communication via the Expedia app was non existent, with no response to our questions. We just received the templated welcome email and nothing else. No response to our questions. Third, it would have been nice to have extra pillows, as there were only 2. Overall, even with the no communication, in the end our stay was pleasant. After we checked in, we really did not need anything from anybody. Checkout was via the computer as well. If asked if we would stay again, we will. Specially considering how close it is to the train and bus. There are also lockers on site.

【立地・アクセス】 7泊8日の一人旅で利用しました。金浦空港から地下鉄5号線で乗り換えなしで到着でき、最寄り駅からも徒歩5分圏内とアクセス抜群です。周辺には遅くまで営業している飲食店やカフェ、コンビニ、Olive Young、ダイソーなどが揃っており、滞在中全く困りませんでした。ホテルは少し薄暗い路地にありますが、治安の悪さは感じません。 【チェックイン・荷物】 完全無人のため、深夜フライトでもスムーズにチェックイン可能です。 ⚠️注意点として、カードキーは1枚のみです。部屋に置き忘れてオートロックがかかると電話連絡するしかなく、深夜帯は特に注意が必要です。また、無人のためチェックアウト後の荷物預かりは不可。ロビーに有料ロッカーがありますが、中に入るにはホテルのカードキーが必要なため、目的地周辺の駅やモールのロッカー利用をおすすめします。 【部屋・設備】 写真より手狭で窓のない閉鎖的な空間ですが、一人なら十分快適でした。 水回り: トイレは紙を流せます。シャワーの水圧も申し分なし。ただユニットバスなのでシャワー後は床が濡れます。 空調・通信: 部屋ごとのWi-Fiがありネット環境はバッチリ。空調も微調整可能です。カードキー差し込み口に別の適当なカードを差しておけば、外出中も快適な室温を保てます。 電源: ベッド脇にUSB-CとUSB-Aポートあり。コンセントの変換プラグは必須です。 【清掃・サービス】 清掃やタオル交換は「MAKE UP」の札をドアノブにかけるシステムです。私の部屋には札がありませんでしたが、毎日9時頃に来る清掃のおじさんに直接お願いして対応してもらいました。おじさんは日本語が話せてとても丁寧な方なので、一人でも安心感があります（滞在中、他の日本人客には会いませんでした）。ロビーには急な雨に使える貸出傘もあります。 【その他（音・洗濯・喫煙）】 音: 金・土曜は近くの飲食店の声が深夜まで聞こえますが、平日はとても静かです。 洗濯: 宿泊者用の洗濯機はないため、自分で手洗いセットを持参するか近くの施設を探す必要があります。 喫煙: 館内禁煙。6Fのルーフトップ（要携帯灰皿）か、ホテル前で喫煙可能です。 【総評】 周辺ホテルと比べて割安なため、ほぼ毎日満室でした。スタッフ常駐の安心感を求める方には不向きかもしれませんが、割り切って使える方にはコスパが良く、私も次回韓国に来た際はリピートする可能性大です。良いホテルでした。

들어가자마자 좋은 향이 남. 구월호텔 앞 달 조명에서 사진 찍으니 여자친구 좋아했습니다. 객실도 청결하고 침구가 편안했음. 외국인 손님들이 많이 보였고 일하시는 분도 친절했음. 간단히 후기 남기지만 별점 5점 만점임.

익선동에 볼 일이 있어서 구월호텔 익선점에서 1박했어요. 결론부터 말하면 위치도 좋고 객실 컨디션도 좋아서 만족스러운 숙박이었습니다. 호텔이 종로3가역/종로5가역 근처라 익선동, 종로, 종묘, 청계천 쪽으로 이동하기 편했고, 주변에 카페랑 식당도 많아서 늦은 시간까지 불편하지 않았어요. 체크인 후 객실에 들어가니 침구류가 생각보다 엄청 푹신하고 깨끗해서 바로 누웠다가 잠들 뻔했어요 ㅎㅎ 객실 인테리어는 깔끔하게 정돈된 느낌이고, 욕실도 새 것처럼 깨끗해서 사용하기 편했습니다. 어메니티도 기본적인 건 다 갖춰져 있었고요. 무인 시스템이라 크게 직원과 마주칠 일은 없었는데, 안내가 명확해서 체크인/체크아웃이 빨라서 좋았습니다. 조용히 쉬러 오는 사람들한테 잘 맞는 곳 같아요. 전체적으로 위치·청결·침구·편의성 네 가지가 다 좋아서, 익선/종로 쪽 일정 있는 분들에게 추천할 만한 호텔이었어요. 다음에 익선동 올 때 또 묵을 의향 있어요 😊
