Cannot leave luggage after checkout beyond 18:00, making it very difficult for travelers. Otherwise the old condition of the room is more than compensated by the friendly and courteous staff.
I stayed in 6th floor of this 6 story building with separate kitchen on the same floor(I realized it just befire checking out). This place is a budget lodge near the express bus terminal and Gangnam metro station without a doubt (just two metro station distance from each). There is no parking lot on site but if you stay here only late overnight(eg,between 9pm to 8am), there seem to be abundant parking areas around here.
I gave 5 star for everything not because this is a 5 star hotel, but because for what I paid for, everything here was excellent. It's close to major public transit including airport transport, close to many great stores and restaurants. For those who are interested, this is walking distance to old BTS locations. The room was small but it's clean and comfortable it's got everything I needed, with the space designed to be practical and efficient. The common space has everything else one needs to live there for a long time. Internet access is great. One slight problem is I asked for a room with washing machine since I stayed there for quite a while. They gave me a room with it but when I went to use it I realized it's disconnected. They said it's electricity issue on that floor. I was a bit disappointed but the washing machine in the common area worked well and it wasn't busy (middle of July). The people at the office are friendly and helpful. It's a place I highly recommended if you want to stay in Seoul for a long time and not pay a lot of money.
Easy to access to public transportation, super kind staff

The place was cute and foreigner friendly. Seven eleven super close by, and everything else is walking distance. My transportation of choice was the bus and it was really close as well. The room was cute not too small, but the bed was a little hard. The bathroom could have been a little cleaner, but other than that it was overall a good stay.
English speaking staff. Very helpful. Great location for Gangnam shopping - walkable everywhere. Bus (6009) stop to and from Incheon airport is only 100 meters away. Rooms are good reasonable if you are using only to sleep. I was out and shopping all day and used the room only to sleep. Rooms are outdated but gets the job done.
Pros: close walking distance to the sub, buses and stores. Great price, the lady and young man was incredibly nice and spoke English very well. Everything worked well. Rooms were clean.
Cons: walls are incredibly thin that I can hear every detail the neighbors do (putting keys down, yawning, using the bathroom, etc). It caught me off guard when someone checked in late which woke me up. They ended up staying up until 4am talking in a regular tone but it was as if there were no walls cus I heard word for word their conversation. Bed is very hard. The cleaning guy was extremely rude. He didn't know my checkout date as he banged on the door to demad me to "leave, 1130" and walked off before I could explain. When I tried to explain he shooed me off and walked away more. What was that?! You don't like working here then dont! We are the customers who pay for your salary, we didn't tell you to be so miserable.
