The location really is convenient for everything you need or want. The air conditioning works really well. I noticed that there were bugs and places that needed to be cleaned. The bedding wasn't in good condition and the matress was very hard. The staff were really friendly and helpful.

A simple hotel, but I loved how easy it was to walk everywhere—restaurants, 7/11, trains, etc. It was quiet, felt safe, and while the room was basic, it was comfortable and cool when needed. The staff were friendly, and I have no complaints at all!

The rooms are small but very functional. Once you get last that, the location is convenient and the staff is very helpful. The lack of window may throw people off, but you get used to it pretty quickly. Specially after a tiring day out!

We stayed for 3 days and 2 nights. Finding the hotel with Naver was easy. Just make sure to look for Irene City Hotel and not Irene Hotel. The check-in was a bit confusing. When we got there, there was no one at the front desk. However, there were 2 room cards that we tried and managed to find our room on our own. The room was perfect if you plan to use it to keep your luggage, get ready to spend the day outside, and sleep. The only thing we struggled a bit with was communication. The front desk was always empty except when we went to check out at 11 am. And when contacting the property via chat through Expedia a day before our arrival and during our time there we didn't receive a reply. This is important if you do not have a phone line service to contact the number provided. Overall it was very convenient location-wise and provided everything we needed during our stay.

バスタブのついた部屋だったので、お湯を貯めて湯舟に浸かることができました。エアコンはリモコンがなく、本体のスイッチを押して作動させました。温度設定はもちろん風向風量も変更できません。オンオフのみ。お風呂に変な虫がいたのでクローゼットにあった殺虫剤で駆除しました。殺虫剤の絵に書かれている虫が出たので出る前提で設置されているのかもしれません。布団のカバーにシミが付いていました。タオルは一枚支給されます。足りなければリビングに置いてあります。アメニティも置いてありそこから取ります。他の部屋の人の音が丸聞こえなので自分の動作も聞こえることを承知ください。

Staff was helpful, this hotels strong point is the location which is considerably close to the Namdaemun market and to few subway stations. The room was quite dark even with all the lights on.
