Very closed to shopping mall, subway station, and airport shuttle.

Nil

Great little hotel close to the subway. Easy to find and had everything i needed. Basic but comfortable and clean.

good location, good people

If you are not familier with small places with a lot of functionality , you may not like the place.

Nothing to mention..wifi is ok, only when they get it working Its not mentioned of course but the best way to get there is to exit the Dongdaemun History and culture train station at exit 1.Turn right and walk up the steps which has the red love heart on it.Once you reach the above street, turn left and head to the 1st pedestrian crossing.Cross over and Hamony is on your right, next to an airport bus stop..Google maps went strange to tell me I can only get there via a bus. Hamony is opposite exit 1.

They have no checklist before they hand over a room.1st night wifi wasnt checked to see if it works.They should check these things in front of you which means they go with you to your room to double check..Its such a simple action.Simply requires 2 legs.I solved my issue of the front door being locked and it was raining as well...Still cant belive no intercom or phone number on the front door.There is a coffee shop open next door..Some similar hotels work out a plan of action with the coffee shop.Shows not much thought has gone into many things. Maybe Im wrong but where on the booking.com did it mention they lock the front door around 7pm ? Maybe even earlier..Did it mention the hours of operation that their front desk is manned? Is there a intercom system if the door is locked when you arrive? Is there a telephone number on the door to ring if the door is locked? Once you book, do they send you extra information in relation to the times their reception is open and what to do if it isnt open for business? Seems to me thry want to be modern and have everything as a press pad door code..What happens if there is a malfunction? I had to change rooms and the room door code was the same as the previous room? Hmm, interesting...I suggest they get a copy of the E-Myth by Michael Gerber, in the Korean language.The lady is nice but its suited for the domestic market.Not international.Hamony mentions on booking.com thar rooms are sound proof.False.You can hear people pressing in their door code
