Four Points by Sheraton Josun, Seoul Station
Location is great. There's underground walkway that leads to/from Seoul Station from/to the hotel which is very convenient. Decent amount of places to eat nearby including Starbucks less than a minute away. Service is great. Gym isn't the best; minimal equipments. Overall, great hotel right by Seoul ...

My only complaint is that I could not cancel the 1st day of my reservation, which probably the fault of Expedia, rather than the hotel.
