Walkable to many iconic locations such as Insa-dong Culture Street, Changgyeonggung Palace, and Hanok Villages.
Easy self check-in process with a code to enter, which was very convenient. "
"This property is conveniently located and it is clean and comfortable. The only thing that bothered us a little was the construction (daily) and loud speakers (Sat morning only) noise in the early morning hours. Overall, it was a good stay for us."
