Couch was very uncomfortable, no desk to do any work related work. Chair by counter was also very uncomfortable. Hard to see the TV from the bed.

Only stayed for one night but the room was cozy, clean, and comfortable! It’s about a 15 minute walk from the bullet train station so be mindful of that if you’re hauling around luggage, the sidewalks are not luggage friendly. Overall, a great hotel in a great area with a lot of local food nearby! Would stay again for longer whenever I return to Korea.

Good but not great

Overall a good place to stay. The bathrooms in the suites need enclosures for families. Power went out for 1 hour in the morning.

I enjoyed my stay at UTOP. My room was practically a spacious two bedroom apartment. UTOP provided several amenities enabling a comfortable atmosphere. I would book again.

Excellent modern property. Even though the room was small, they did an excellent job fitting everything into the space with plenty of storage, kitchen, sink, large fridge, closet, etc. all modern equipment. Bidet was better than most hotels. No complain in functionality despite the small space. The only complains are: (1) noise insulation, can hear neighbors (2) heated floor seemed to take temperature above thermostat temperature, we had to turn on the AC
