Though we normally book 4 or 5 star hotels, we needed a hotel close to Camp Kim for an early morning USO DMZ tour (and due to an early morning arrival into Seoul via train from Busan that same day). The first clerk didn't speak very good English so we were passed onto another employee. The room ( a variation of the Fountainebleau room pictures on the website) was a good size with one double and one single bed, a large flatscreen TV, a two person jacuzzi and full size bath/hair products, a hair dryer and mini-bar with two bottles of water. The problems with the room were low lighting in the open bathroom, the shower was in the uneven bottom jacuzzi and the toilet was in it's own room in which your knees almost touched the wall (not great for anyone over 5'10"). Though we didn't have time to look around the immediate area, the hotel was a 2 minute walk from the Namyeong Station and a Paris Baguette (next to the station) for great danishes and coffee for breakfast. The Samgakji Station was less than a 5 minute walk. The positives were that the room was clean and for the size the room, it was a decent value at 150 000 won. We returned to the Sheraton D-Cube as it was already booked prior to the trip. The Sheraton, a five star hotel, was about 279 000 won (for a club room), so almost double the price but more amenities like club lounge ccess with breakfast and spa/gym access.
