            Clean accommodation but heating is lacking!”

            Upgraded to a double + single room! The guesthouse owner is the same as Sejong Hotel and the E-Mart 24 convenience store across the street, so it was a shame that the Sejong Hotel lobby was often empty. However, it was good that they solved everything when I went to the convenience store. I didn't expect much because it was a motel, but it was clean and good. There were even guests with young children. The downside was that the central heating was on, so the room was cold early in the morning. Once, the central heating was turned on late, and unfortunately, it was the end room, so it was very cold. Other than that, I would like to stay here again next time! It was clean and good value for money~~

            Clean and spacious room”

            Spacious room for the price, in an old building but the cleanliness is decent. Overall, a good and affordable option.
