"Great location, close to a few different metro station lines so easy to get around Seoul. Rooms were spacious and bed was comfy (didn’t want to wake up)"
"It was great to have breakfast in the hotel and the location is convenient to many shopping malls. And the airport bus stop is right in front of the hotel "
"I have stayed at this hotel several times on business trips. It has good transport access and is bright all night long, so I recommend it for those who plan to visit the night market. It's a shame that the facilities are a little outdated, but overall it's a good hotel."

10/10 Excellent
"The location is great, easy to get to many places by walking or take public transportation. The staff here are helpful and friendly. Overall I enjoyed my stay here. "
"Very friendly, professional, and accomodating staff. I stayed in a single-bed room (as a solo traveler) for 5 nights. Worked for me as I was out exploring the area most of the time. The hotel is in an excellent location, close to parks and shopping malls. It's also about 15 minutes from Meongdong, which I didn't know upon booking the room. Meongdong is a fun touristy place to walk around and try street food.
The single rooms in the hotel are quite compact, so if you are planning to travel with others and/or be inside for lengthy periods, perhaps opt for a larger space. Still, I was very comfortable--bed, bathroom, shower etc. all was well-kept and clean. I also paid for breakfast each morning at a very reasonable price. They offer buffet style with many options. I am vegetarian and was able to get my fill of eggs, fruit...and coffee.
I will plan to stay here again when back in the area. Many thanks. "
"I have only positive things to say about this hotel, the staff was very polite and accommodating, the hotel was super clean and the rooms were nice overall. The only advice I would give people is to make sure you time when you want to use the laundry, it can get quite busy down there. Also, if you wanted to stay near Myeondong night market, this is not that close, you'll need to ride the bus or subway to get there. Overall, this hotel was awesome, it was convenient and easy to find. The lounge on the 18th floor and the terrace on the roof was very cool, and the hotel lobby was also super nice. Great hotel, highly recommended."
"This is a beautiful property with exceptionally friendly staff and excellent food. The location is perfect, very convenient and easy to get around. We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again!"
