I had a pleasant stay at Keumkang Motel, with a fantastic location just a short walk from Seoul Station, making it super convenient for getting around. The owner was incredibly friendly and spoke great English, which added a personal touch to my stay. However, I did find some minor drawbacks like the absence of an elevator and slightly limited amenities in the room. Despite these small issues, I would absolutely consider returning on my next visit to Seoul.

I enjoyed my stay at Keumkang Motel, especially due to its prime location just a short walk from Seoul Station, which made getting around super easy. However, I did notice the bathrooms had a bit of a sewage smell, which is just a common city thing. Overall, my stay was cozy, but the thin walls made it tricky to find peace at times.
