Executive lounge had good breakfast selection and an interesting range of pre-dinner snacks. Wine and beer complimentary.

Because of the heat we used taxis to get to the attractions and these were very reasonably priced.

Aventine, loved the Dongdaemun Design Centre. What a piece of innovative architecture.
