    The A/C was very loud but it was fine with earplugs.

    Great for solo travelers, the staff was super helpful! Good location.

    Have in mind there is no room cleaning and they don’t throw out the trash or change towels, so in case you stay for more that 2-3 days, you need to bring your towels

    The staff is extremely friendly. They allowed us to leave our luggage when we were not there. The location is really good. It is a cozy place

    Comfy space with a nice big tv. Shower was a bit broken so had to duck to fit under the head. Power kept going out every so often each night which was quite annoying. Staff helped transport us to the train station which was very lovely of them.

    The hotel does not offer breakfast, which we knew from the information.

    A nice clean room with a double bed. The room was equipped with a small refridgerator, water kettle, TV, and AC. The rooms exceeded expectations set by the surrounding area. There is a nearby bus stop which vcan be reached directly from the airport. The railway station is only a few bus stops away.

    The room was quite small. Barely had space to have 2 suitcases opened at once. No lifts or slopes so you have to carry your suitcase up the stairs. Low security, anyone could enter the hotel doors. Our room was right by the back entrance. One night around 11.40pm I heard someone play with the room's electronic lock and rattle the door handle hard which was quite a frightening experience.

    The hotel was located around within 10 minutes walk to Nam Dae Mun Market and around 15 minutes walk to Myeong Dong which made it convenient to get there without having to take the train or bus. Also lots of food options on the same street as the hotel. Coin laundry just up the road if needed. Staff was friendly. Helped us hold our luggage as we arrived early from the airport.

    Maybe some travelers will be bothered by the fact that the building does not have an elevator, but it was not a problem for me.

    The hotel greatly contributed to the exceptional experience in Seoul. It is located in a quiet street, which is hidden from large tourist crowds and yet is rich in content. This was very useful to rest after long days exploring Seoul. Near the hotel, there are several restaurants open until late, a large store, a laundromat and other useful businesses. The entrance to the metro station is just a few minutes walk away, which connects this location well with the rest of the city. And nearby there are bus stations with bus lines that run to all the most important locations around the city. On the way to the station, there is a 24-hour "C U Mart" where you can quickly top up your T Money card and buy basic necessities at any time of the day. In short, I liked: - Excellent location of the hotel, well connected, within walking distance of Meyeodong Street, Namdaemun Market and Namsan Tower. - Affordable price on Booking - The air conditioner in the room was rich in options and quickly conditioned the space - The room we got was very quiet, with a very comfortable bed and sleeping in it was a real pleasure - Although the hotel staff did not speak English well, they tried to answer every question and meet every request we had. Using the Papago application, we communicated without any problems

    Well the room is very small, no denying that.

    I didn't like that there were no elevator, only stairs, just because I had a big bag, but that was about it.

    The location is great. The hotel is a little hidden from the main road, but I enjoyed my stay overall. The room was fairly spacious for just one person, and the bathroom was big. The staff were helpful and carried my bag up to my room for me upon check-in. The 12pm checkout time is also very handy. Overall, nice stay here!

    We knew in advance that there is no elevator, the Hotel advises you when you book. Two flights up to the top floor, but this was good exercise, and they helped with the bags. If you read a bad review on cleanliness and/or staff (similar timeframe to me), ignore it. The problem was NOT the hotel and it's staff.

    Rated as 3-star, this is a great place to stay. Location is fantastic, staff are lovely, and it is great value for money. 20 places to eat within 3 min walk, supermarket across the road, 5 mins to Namdaemun markets, 1 station away from Seoul Station, and easy to get to many must see places in Seoul. The building is very well insulated, so the temperature inside is pleasant, and there is very little noise even if the window is open. So you can have fresh air in your room. The room and stairwells have lovely Korean decor.

    The glass & see thru bathroom door may not be ideal for friends. Cleanliness can be improved as the table top is pretty dusty.

    Excellent location, walking distance to Seoul Station, Namsan and Myeongdong. Bed is comfortable and the room is decent size for single occupant. Overall, it is still value for money for the location.
