Great location - walkable to shops, restaurants, palaces, and metro/ bus stops. Staff very friendly. Room is very spacious and comfortable with air conditioning, bed is very firm
Quite hotel, Easy access to shops. Daily clean. Was provided with a very effective heater. Reception staff very helpful. Enjoyed my stay. Highly recommend.
Nice and charmful room with its wooden ground. It has everything what you need for exploring Seoul. The location is fantastic! A few meters from the metro station „Jangno 3“, at the beginning of a Hanok market woth fancy and stylish restaurants and cafés and the palaces are easy reachable on foot.
Helpful and friendly stuff and the room was super clean. Daily room-service, doesn‘t matter when you leave your room!
The room was spacious and clean. Since I went during the winter time, heater was available for use in room if needed. Electric heating blanket was also provided for customers to use to keep the bed warm. There are many restaurants and cafes nearby and the hotel is close to subway stations with 3-10 min walking distance to line 5 and 3.
Excellent hotel in the heart of Jongno. Even though it is a “love hotel” I didn’t get that vibe at all. The rooms were clean, spacious safe. Everything is pretty much right outside the hotel including tran stations. I loved our stay and it was very good value. I stayed here with 2 kids.
Basic but comfortable and clean. Very close to a tube station with easy connections to the rest of the city. Room was a bit dated but did a great job for a two night stay. They provide free snacks, bottled water and soft drinks both in the room and at the reception. Great value for money if you don’t have super high expectations.

good location. good room space. small windows but ok in summer.
The room was small, but neat and clean. The staff was very helpful fixing a few minor problems in the room. Great location in the middle of all the action in Insadong. Our room had a mini-fridge, but no microwave - however one was available in the lobby. The bed was unusually firm - if staying more than a day or two, consider bringing a thin mattress pad. The hotel-provided water and small treats were nice.
Very good location, just parallel of the street with street restaurants and cafes open at night but very quiet as it's not on this street.
Room service every day, night gowns provided, mini bar free with lots of snacks, water and soft drinks. These are provided daily as well. Room is bigger than other hotels I searched in similar price range.
The room was generally filthy. I believe it is an hourly motel masked as a 3 star hotel. The bed gave me rashes (10 days and counting) and the room was so dusty it was absolutely disgusting.

My Korean friend informed me this is a hotel where young people go to have sex, which explains the mirror wall by the bed, the two-person tub with mirror tiles, and the light outside the door indicating whether the room is occupied.
