Ok for a budget traveler

Bed was extremely hard. I met only one person that spoke limited English the night I checked in. For the remainder of the trip no one spoke English. Could not get assistance with directions or getting local recommendations.

The location was okay but the hotel itself was very old and kind of dirty. The hallway was narrow and had some bad odors. I do not recommend this hotel to stay. Also I had to pay 25000won for the parking fee which wasn’t not described on the website.

This is a fine, basic hotel. It is a little bit rundown. The prices are reasonable, though, especially for a hotel in this part of town.

Room dirty, door won't lock, scarry neighborhood, total nightmare - if you want to spoil your whole month, stay here for 1 night. I'm not spoiled and I appreciate a low price deal but this is really not worth it even if you use your points and pay nothing.

The staff were friendly, helpful and spoke many languages. The property is clean and had a cafe and there is lots of restaurants in the immediate vicinity. There is housekeeping and fresh bottled water every morning in the room. The location is central for shopping, transport, and palaces. Its a good location and will be visiting again next year

Old and Dark Room

The photos are very misleading. The room was very old and dark (it looked like it hadn’t been updated since the 1970s). We ended up switching to another hotel despite the room at the Crown Hotel being nonrefundable. The only good part was the very nice woman who checked us in.

Old needs updating. Too expensive and central AC for whole building means your room will be hot at night.
