No where in the city

Hotel is located nowhere in the city. Not near to any attraction place. Only small convenient stores and local restaurants around. 15 mins walk from hotel to subway. Day time is quiet but night time is not. The room is clean and bigger than normal size, especially the toilet. Reception doesn't speak good English but very helpful.

If you must...

There's nothing really wrong with it. It's not as close to the subway as I thought, about 15 minute walk. I was surprised that it received 3 stars. It's not a dump, but not 3 stars either. The neighbor is not bad, but nothing to see or do. It's most industrial, lots of auto shops.

편리한 위치지만....

찾기 편하고 이용하는데 많이 불편함은 없었지만 비용이 너무 비싼 거 같습니다. 솔직히 이 호텔 비용 반이면 다른 곳에서 비슷한 수준으로 지낼 수 있습니다. 청결은 좋았습니다.

良かったです

5号線沿いのコンサート会場に行く為、予約しました。 女三人で一人5000円ほどでした。 外見はラブホです。部屋は綺麗で広く満足しました。駅までは15分くらい歩きますが話しながらならすぐです。バスも通ってるのでバスに乗るといいかも。仁川からリムジンバスでホテル前まで行けます。飲み物やポップコーンなど食べ放題で楽しかったです。変圧器も貸してくれました。しかし日本語は通じません。Wi-Fiもありませんので空港で借りたほうがいいですね。 全然普通に泊まれましたので満足してます。

Big samsung TV , jacuzzi bath and good toiletry items and free bar drinks. Wifi if possible if it available in English. Front desk staff was very polite and helpful. Hotel could be improve to make it more prominent as it has excellent facilities. More greenery can be placed at the exterior stairway exit area. Excellent hotel.

On the whole the experience was a satisfactory one

The stay was comfortable, except for the fact the breakfast that is included is a very meagre one. Also the fact that the rooms do not have a closet for clothes was inconvenient. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the other amenities like computers and internet connection in rooms are very good.

Hotel VIV

Hotellet i helhet var väldigt bra, med bra standard på rummen. Dock var det ganska svårt att kommunicera med personalen på hotellet då nästan ingen kan engelska, men det gäller generellt i Seoul så man kanske inte kan förvänta sig så mycket. Det som också är märkbart är att den stora frukosten som ingår består av ett rostbröd och sylt. Så för den hungrige måste extra kostnader läggas till för frukost. (Det går inte att köpa till en större frukost på hotellet men det finns några ställen i närheten som serverar frukost.)

かんなもんかな？

価格のわりに簡単な朝食もついて、まあまあだが、部屋にてエアコンはあるが、自分で温度調節ができず、あつかったり、寒かったりで、その点はあまりよくありませんでした。また、トイレに鍵がない為カップルならいいですが、ファミリー向けではないですね。

それなりです。部屋はいいですよ。値段の割りに。

ビジネスホテルとラブホテルの兼用です。3人用の部屋の中はリゾートホテルのように広いけど、窓は小さいです。駅からは10分。周りは下町のラブホテル街でレストランは多い。 CS放送が見られて局数は多いけど日本語放送はありません。日本のアダルトの専門チャンネルは韓国訳でありました。高くもなく安くもないですが空きがないときなど割り切れば有りかなと言う感じです。

Clean room & new decoration with jacuzi but poor breakfast

We stayed in this hotel for 4 nights which was OK. Room is clean & newly decorated with a jacuzzi but no cupboards & only one chair. There is only some free food (bread slices,jam which was the breakfast-,popcorn,weater&juices) facilies at the lobby and no restaurant in the hotel but there are few restaurants in the area.Staff speaks poor English.
