Experience of the stay
I visited Korea for my favorite idol's birthday celebration, which I had planned for a while. Fortunately, it coincided with a comeback, so I suddenly changed my travel schedule to one day earlier and booked this hotel.
There was a limousine bus service from Incheon Airport to the nearest bus stop, and there was a wowpass charging machine at the front desk of the hotel across the street, which was very convenient.
The room was quite nice. (During my previous trips to Korea, I often stayed in guesthouses or former motels, so staying in a proper hotel for the first time was touching.)
Although I stayed alone, I had booked a room for two, so the bed was large, and I could sleep very well!
It was located a bit far from my main activities, but there were attractions like Gyeongbokgung Palace and Gwangjang Market nearby, making it ideal for sightseeing. If I have another opportunity to go to Seoul, I would like to visit these places next time, and if that happens, I would love to stay at this hotel again.
Experiences during the trip
On the first day, I went to COEX in Gangnam.
Since I didn't have much time, I took a taxi, but the traffic was terrible, and I ended up getting out halfway and walking.
From the second day onwards, I moved to a hotel and focused on otaku activities in Hongdae.
It wasn't a typical Korean trip with places like Gyeongbokgung Palace and Gwangjang Market, so I hope to visit Korea for non-otaku purposes someday!
