This location was very central to some of the locations most tourists want to visit in Seoul. Convenient to get to by public transportation or walking. Also - a LOT of dining options close by. A very “happening” nightlife for locals and visitors.

Great comfy bed, great water pressure, great location for local feel.
Nothing like Myeongdong’s bling scene.
Room is small and toilet can’t take a big body - think the size of airplane toilet space.
Staff was wonderful and very welcoming!

It was a four-person room, but it was spacious and comfortable. There was also a clothes dryer, which was helpful in getting rid of the garlic smell from my clothes. However, the bath was unusually large and I couldn't fill it with hot water. Why is the bathroom so spacious?

Great hotel and very nice staff
Nice hotel, good breakfast and very nice staff. The house cat is also very kind. The only negative i have about the stay is that our only window in room was blacked out (some like that but i like natural sunlight) and that the room felt a bit small at times. Perfect place to start your vacation in seoul with

The staff at the facility go the extra mile to assist despite language being a barrier. The check in and check out was seamless. The hotel was centrally located but it could be difficult to find the first time if you don’t know the area. The breakfast was an added bonus, Real nice place to stay.

Let me write the cons first. The room especially the bathroom was very small.
However, everything else was great. The staff were kind and the mascot cat was adorable. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. Location was too perfect: a lot of events caused call taxi service impossible. In other words, there are many things to enjoy in the neighborhood, and public transportation was on point.
