A lot of restaurants near by,great location, friendly staff, wonderful breakfast,good room cleaning, the only weird thing was that the bathroom curtain dissappear at the second day of our stay 😅
Good place. Very close to Namdaemun Market and Namdaemun Underground Shopping Street. Lots of restaurants around the hotel. Walking distance to Myeongdong Market and the Seoul Plaza (which had events on the weekend we were there)! They serve Korean and American breakfast at their buffet.
Everything we needed for our stay in Myeongdong. Very convenient location and easy check in. Nice addition was that the shower and water pressure was excellent!
Fantastic propery, great price, great location felt like home, we loved the cat downstairs, if i had to mention one thing it would be that they dont change the sheets during your stay, otherwise fantastic!
Room had enough space to move my 3 luggages around. Staff was kind and even offered early check-in! Daily buffet breakfast was excellent! There's an amenities vending machine in lobby. Very walkable to Namdaemun and Myeongdong for shopping, and the restaurants nearby open until late. Nearby Airport Bus route!
It’s very convenient and only minutes to walk to Myeongdong. And I like the fact that this hotel has the chair massager it helps us a lot for a tiring tour day that we have. The only thing I don’t like is you can hear your next door .
For the price you pay, this hotel offers the best value. The building is not brand-new, but it's well maintained and clean. The breakfast buffet was great, and the location was excellent for all kinds of touristy stuff. The highlight was the hospitality. All the staff were very friendly, professional and helpful. We felt very welcomed during our stay. Plus, their cat was super cute and playful! No litter smell or anything. We'd recommend this place to our friends and family for sure.
Positives: Great location near Seoul station with spatious rooms and also a large and good shower. Warm reception.
Negatives: bedding had stains. After request to change, it was better, but still some stains.

Comfortable beds and excellent location. Layout of the family room is poorly designed. No wardrobes provided. The toilet door made such a noise that it was better to leave it opened throughout our 6 days stay. The curtain separating the bath was unusable. It kept sliding down. No privacy.
