"Great Desk staff who speak excellent English and very helpful! I loved the location of the hotel, which was easy to walk to many tourist attractions and restaurants.."
"I visited this hotel two months ago, but I came back.
Last time, it was a bit chaotic because it was newly opened, but now it's a stable atmosphere?
A staff member who was still friendly welcomed me. Having a staff member who can speak Japanese is a great advantage.
They also ran a free breakfast. I didn't eat and just looked around, but it looked delicious.
Coffee is free, too. Washing machines and dryers are also free if you just buy detergent.
I feel this every time, but Dongdaemun at night...
"Friendly staff, had a great time during my stay. Very convenient for transit and the Kwangjang Market closeby has a lot of great food options. Free breakfast was also a plus."
"Great stay for a solo week in Seoul! Located on a quiet street, with lots of dining options close by.
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. "

"I’ve stayed at this hotel more than once. There are so many reasons why this place is a gem. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Whether it’s storing luggage or providing directions, they are patient with foreigners when checking in and checking out. Many cool amenities like a rooftop lounge and hot bath. The location is surrounded by fun, trendy shops and amazingly delicious places to eat. Even after areas normally close, you can find late night snack options. There is so much more too. Would certainly stay here again! "
