The hotel staff were all very kind. The room temperature was too hot on the day I checked in, and there was no thermostat in the room, so the front desk staff left at 10pm. It was so hot that night I couldn't get a good night's sleep, but I told the hotel staff the next morning and they adjusted it for me. The hotel staff are there from 8am and leave at 10pm, so they can't adjust the temperature after 10pm, so I recommend letting them know in advance.

The staff was wonderful! The facility was extremely clean, they truly take pride in their establishment. Onsite laundry room if needed. Entrance Doors lock late at night for safety but they give you a code. I came with my family and the late night scene was more for the younger party crowd but during the day you are close to so many amazing spots that are a walk or short taxi ride away. We were very happy with our stay :)

Clean rooms, large fluffy towels daily, bottled water, ramen cereal fruit or toast breakfast, and extra friendly staff. APEC was in town and on departure day, there was a marathon in Seoul. Cabs were not running nearby so staffer took us to nearby subway to get to scheduled express train to airport. She spoke English too. What a lifesaver. Centrally located. 5-mins in each direction is Insadong Cultural Street, or, BBQ alley in opposite direction. Palace wall 5-mins away too. We were able to hail cabs quickly on main roads except last day. In quiet alley but we would stay here again.
Marion, 8-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a tough review to write. All the previous negative and positive reviews are correct. However, it doesn't deserve some of the low star ratings. It is a cross between a budget hotel and a modern hostel. Location: Excellent. Walkable to 2 metro station (5-10 min walk). Anguk station is more straightforward, Jongno 3 Ga station is a little tricky, but after awhile, there is a quick short cut through the hanok alleys. The hotel is also within walking distance to the palace area, including one that has free admission. Pricing: Very reasonalbe. Staff: Superb. The manager and other employees are responsive and extremely pleasant and courteous. I asked to switch to another available room, and it was done quickly. Kitchen and common area: All of the machines and utensils typical of a very good hostel (much better than a regular hotel). Room: On the smaller side. The floor is heated in the winter, and sometime it gets too warm. Rooms near the stairs are usually noisier than far away. Bathroom quirks: Typical setting of an Asian wet bathroom. The shower head is position right above the sink and the toilet bowl. This didn't bother me. The reason I think both previous negative and positive comments are correct is that, it has all the good services and amenities of a modern hostel. The private bathroom makes it a "hotel", albeit a budget one. The location, the services, the staff and the pricing all make up its quirks and drawbacks.

We love , love our stay at this Hotel in Korea. It was our first time in this country and we enjoyed each day of our stay especially with our stay in this MJ Hotel. It was a plain basic room but it was very clean, minimalists kind of room. Basic complete room, nothing fancy but very CLEAN. Nice new functioning a/c, smart TV, small fridge, very clean bathroom with very good water pressure with abundance of hot water , clean tiled flooring, automatic door lock, has free laundry room with free detergents. The hotel is close to everything, tourist spots, dining, shopping, night and food markets. But MOST of all, it has the most friendliest and very helpful staff. Amy speaks very fluent in English whom we asked all the time to help us whether directions, help in calling taxi and other things that we don’t understand in Korean . Same true with the other staff. They provide breakfast and it has a common kitchen where you can hang out if you want to eat. We plan to stay here again when we come back to Seoul again in the future.
