"Have stayed here 3 times in the past 7 months and it’s always been a great experience. No complaints whatsoever. Good price for what I need. Will stay here for the foreseeable future since the location is perfect for when I’m visiting."
"Very clean facility, close to seoul central market and sindang station (5 min). For the location, price and the giant tub, definitely worth the price!! Clarify all check in details in advance and you won’t encounter any issues."
"It's close to the station, there are convenience stores and local food restaurants nearby, the hotel staff are friendly, and the cost performance is excellent. I would like to stay here again. The only downside is that there were a lot of fruit flies in the room, which disturbed my sleep. No matter how much I tried to get rid of them, there were still a lot of them."
"Stayed in small room in property that includes TV & twin bed. Good for solo traveler. Bathrooms have toilets & showers in same room. Good location about 5 minute walk from subway & airport bus. "
"The property wasn’t as nice and luxurious as it was presented online, nor was it as big as it appeared online. Other than that, I didn’t have any problems with the room. "

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. "
"This hotel was near the Sinseoldong Subway Station making it very easy to get to places by public transportation. Across the road from the hotel between the hotel and the subway station was a really excellent restaurant, Hymchan Jangeo. Something really nice about the hotel: there was a foreign currency exchange machine right in the lobby. Very convenient. The only complaint that I have is that the room was a little bit cramped. Given all the other positives, however, I really recommend this hotel."
