Risk check

Old-hotel risks to check harder around Gangnam and COEX

  • Business hotels can age unevenly, so compare room-condition photos rather than relying on the lobby.
  • Residence-style stays may be better for longer trips, but confirm kitchen, laundry, and cleaning details.
  • Gangnam distances can feel longer than they look, so check subway exits, hills, and taxi return routes.
  • Premium-looking rooms can still vary by room type, so confirm the exact room attached to the price.
