Room is clean, staffs are friendly, breakfast is wonderful
Hoa, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay and enjoy real korean life. Easy access to downtown. If you want a western vibe, dont stay here, otherwise this place is great. Close to everything but away from noise. The staff is super friendly and the hotel.is surrounded by pure korean lige and food.
Manuel, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Super quiet in the day time but comes to life at night. Walking distance from lots of attractions.
Shahn, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

It was dirty both in the room and in the restaurant. Definitely not recommended unless you want a very budget hotel.
Albert, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Breakfast was in a basement.
Yadira, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Modern, quiet hotel despite being in a vibrant area. Separate bath, separate (automatic) toilet. Convenient location
Howard, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Smart modern room with some stylish features. Lacking a safe and some extra plug sockets. Good to have included breakfast with nice options. Staff very friendly and hotel is in great location for getting around the city.

Very nice hotel
Yuritzi, 10-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay in central Seoul with an amazing staff

Short stay in Seoul. Centrally located with a confortable room, although not much natural light in the room i was in. Most important the front desk staff was amazing, offering to help me out of a bit of a jam.
James, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really liked our hotel.. specially the area cause there r plenty of restaurants near by and shopping center.
tenzin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really liked the area around the hotel. It is very vibrant but not too loud. You’re in the middle of the city and walking distance from a lot. Location is the best part. The room itself was also pretty nice. I would say the most awkward thing about it was the bathroom is in kind of the same open format as a walkin shower so you can hear everything. So maybe not the best for privacy but for the price and location I think it was pretty good.
Jacob, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

This is old , dark , dirty hotel. The room has huge bath tub but such waste of space. They should use this space for sink, closet and cabinet . The whole hotel is dark and gloomy , the breakfast was so basic and is served in the basement where it smells of sewage . I could not wait to get out of there
LAN, 3-night trip

Megan, 4-night trip

Budget hotel in a shady street close to a nice and vibrant area.
Yannick, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was located in a convenient area and the staff were very friendly
jenn, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We only stayed to sleep here. Good value. The place is small but is good enough for a couple. Place is modern. Bed is comfy. Sure close to places to eat and drink but this is inan area where people drink and go for night out in Seoul so I would not recommend for families or ladies travelling by themselves at night. If youre a couple, it's somewhat fine.
Lizz Anthonette, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great value for the price.
Elliott, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was clean, front desk was very friendly and helpful to our needs. Even though the room was a bit small I would stay again.
Salvador, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Reception personnel are not professional in demeanor. The bed is uncomfortably soft. The neighborhood is very noisy all through out the day and night. Conveniently located.
Julia, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s a good place especially for the price
Jeanne kateleen, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Location but Disappointing

Great location in central Seoul. So many sites within walking distance. A lot of cafés, restaurants, coffee houses in the area. Room was nice sized but needed a deep cleaning. Furnishings needed a good dusting. Very little wardrobe space with just 2 hangers, no drawers, no luggage rack. Breakfast was simple but ok. Front desk staff was most kind, helpful.
