Hello - Born and raised in Korea and from America, my sister and I recently travelled to Korea to visit family. My husband found this hotel through Internet searching, primarily the Agoda travel site. The pics looked great, and the location, price, all looked like what would work for us. We were going to stay here for 4 or 5 days while visiting my brother, before heading into Seoul and to stay with other family members. When we got to our room, we were shocked beyond belief!
Keep in mind that this was not a "dupe the foreigner" kind of thing; we both speak Korean flawlessly. This room was akin to a crack house or maybe a squalor to support a prostitution ring or something. I could not believe what greeted us behind the room door. The entire room was NOT out of the same website that we saw!
The entire place was "old. The carpets were dirty. There were 2 or 3 holes, quite literally, in the bathroom. The refrigerator was some 30 year old dinky thing that was barely cool. We immediately called my brother, and we got out of there. But, not before But, not before his wife gave the desk crew the 3rd degree. I am going to try and contact the hotel directly, and tell them, how dare they lure unsuspecting customers, travellers into their establishment, by showing photos of the hotel rooms that are a far cry from reality.
Kindest, P. Thompson More. I stayed at the Royal coutersy of Korean Air. I was really shocked to find that they were putting transit passangers in this hotel. It's 50 minutes away with no traffic late at night and on the mainland in the port town of Incheon.
Nowhere near the airport even though they share the same name. The hotel is in a central location if you actually want to be in Incheon town so probably not bad if you have time to explore. It seems to be popular for it's function rooms but apart from that everything else was unnotable.
