東大門に買い物に行くならとても便利な立地です。私は夜2時位までマスクショップや問屋デパートなどに買い物に1人で行っていましたが、全く問題なかったです。ただよ初日23時頃、事前のモバイルチェックインをせずに現地に行ってしまったたホテルスタッフが受付におらず、スタッフルームに声をかけに行き、対応を依頼する流れになってしまったために、しておく事をお勧めします。また、ランドリールームやキッチンスペース、フリースペースも空いていて、大変に便利でした。注意点として女性6人部屋だったのですが、私は夜買い物三昧だったので夜帰ると、寝静まっていてシーンとしている環境にガサゴソ入るのはやはり申し訳なさすぎて、地下までトイレや洗顔しに行ったりしていました。想像以上にみなさんキチンとされていました。あと、ベッドサイドには棚があり、色々と必要備品を収納できたことも便利でした。トランクの収納も問題ありませんでした。全体的にはとっても快適でコスパ良かったです。
