Hotel was great for what we needed. It was spacious and I was supprised we were offered amenities like toothbrushes and toothpaste. Overall it was fine. The sheets were dirty/stained when we arrived and they were not changed but we only stayed 2 nights. The staff was friendly and we really appreciated that we were able to leave our bags there.

The hotel was fairly clean and its location was perfect(not too far from the subway station and there were many good restaurants and shopping centres). Staff was friendly and helpful, too. They also provide a ride to the airport with a reasonable price. I'd love to re-visit the hotel.

The location was good, near to Myeongdong, bus stops and subway stations, restaurants, etc. But it is up a hill. The rooms need some renovations, it was really dusty so it doesn’t look like they clean it before we checked in, the room cleaning was bad, we stay there for more than 15 days and they never swept the floors, especially the bathroom and during our last week we had noise issues from neighbors rooms.

Good place for good price

The room was spacious! However the TV and AC didn’t work! Bathroom has a weird layout! But overall, we had a pleasant stay! 18-20 mins walk to myeongdong st. Which was great! If you’re looking for an updated modern place this isn’t the place! We opted to stay here for one day with kids as we needed a spot for a few hours before we headed out. Aside from that, the front staff was nice and very kind. Would stay here again.

This was a nice place to stay. It had a couple quirky things about it, such as the bathroom having frosted glass wall and doors. That's okay when it's just you and a spouse, but when you're a family, it's a little weird. So, we just had to make sure we weren't looking the direction of the bathroom when others were in there. The elevator only held two people with their luggage, so we had to take two trips for our family of four. It was a clean room and a place for us to crash for a night. It was nice.

Room was spacious and clean. Check in and out was easy. Only thing I didn't like was I put a do not disturb when I went out and still someone came into the room to clean. Some things were likely thrown out that I had wanted to keep to reuse (extra bag, plastic water bottle). I did not secure my items thinking noone would enter. At least Korea is a safe country and I did not notice anything of value missing. Area is very quiet and it is literally on-top of a steep street. Walkable to nearby cafes and bus stop. May be difficult for people with ambulatory issues. Entrance is a flight of stairs. I did not notice any ramps or accessible entrance.

The place is not a four star hotel. It is at best a three star hotel and even that is iffy. I’ll start with the good. The location is pretty good for seeing Seoul. It’s close to the cable car to Namsan Tower and Myeungdong. Can easily walk to both from the hotel. I’d say 10 to 12 minutes to the night market. If you go the other direction you can head over towards the palaces and such. The subway station is close and the street leading up to the hotel has a few local Korean restaurants and a small convenience store. There are a couple of coffee shops and a gelato place as well. So if you’re a tourist, this is a good location. The beds were comfy as well and the AC worked pretty well, although they can be kind of loud. Now the bad. The hotel is in need of updating. The carpet is worn, wallpaper peeling, and overall need of some love and care. I am Korean American and my Korean is limited, but I asked the front desk to call me a cab for my family of five. He tried for like 15 seconds and said he couldn’t do it. I messaged my cousin and he sent a car within 10 minutes. There is no laundry on premises. I talked to another front desk person, Filipina and she told me there is small laundry mat on the street which was obvious and of a dry cleaner. The dry cleaner is a super local place and I went in there and asked if he could do our laundry. He quoted 30,000 won and when I picked it up he said it was a lot so I gladly gave him another 10,000 won. Hope this helps.
