My stay at Hotel Daewoo Inn was pretty solid overall! The hotel is in a great spot right in the heart of the city, and while the rooms and bathrooms are a bit on the smaller side, it was cozy enough for me. I did have a little scare when I found my door was left slightly ajar after housekeeping came by, but nothing was missing, so I guess it was no harm, no foul. The service was really nice too, which enhanced my experience!

The rooms are small but tidy, ideal for solo travelers or couples. I appreciated the daily housekeeping and the bigger room I was offered during my stay. However, the mattress could be a bit hard for some folks.

It's tucked away in an alley, which made it a bit tricky to find at first, but once I got oriented, I loved how accessible everything was. There's a 7-Eleven around the corner and tons of restaurants nearby, including my favorite KBBQ.

While I didn't have breakfast included, there are plenty of options around, plus the convenience of a 24-hour restaurant nearby is a major plus if you're feeling snacky late at night.

My stay at Hotel Daewoo Inn was decent overall. The location is fantastic, nestled in a unique little alley that adds character to the experience. The rooms were a bit small, and I did have a moment of concern when my door wasn't fully locked one day, but thankfully nothing was taken. The friendly staff made my trip enjoyable, but the firmness of the beds and some cleanliness concerns were drawbacks.

There were some nice facilities like the water purifier outside my room, which was super helpful during the hot weather. However, I thought the bathroom could benefit from a better layout to handle shower splashes.

I had a decent stay at Hotel Daewoo Inn. The location was awesome, but the rooms were pretty small. The staff, especially Kim and his wife, were super welcoming and helpful.
