Lester

This was one of the easiest stays of all locations I've traveled. The train and bus stops are less than 100m away and there are countless restaurants, shopping, coffee shops, and olive youngs near by. The hotel has a great view of hongdae and has all of the amenities except for a pool... Not that you will go swimming in one of the busiest and fun locations in all of Asia. Highly recommend and you will not regret your visit.

Good Hotel
Room is cozy and clean, room size is also just nice (not too small). Overall is a pleasant experience, but the main takeaway is the hotel strategic location, near to subway and also plenty of branded shops & restaurants within walking distance.
