The hotel was located in a very convenient area, close to both buses and the subway. The staff was kind and the hotel rooms were clean and quiet. The hotel breakfast was not the best, but it was alright for the price. Overall, I had a good experience at the hotel!

Nice hotel

Very nice hotel near metro stop. Room was quiet and the ac was excellent which was important sense we were here during a record heat wave. The room was compact but had everything we needed. Nice shower amenities My only complaint was hard pillows which some people might like. The neighborhood was very walkable with lots of restaurants nearby

Nice, clean, close to many places

Very clean, easy check in and out, easy to find, English no problem, helpful staff. Breakfast was so-so but had a decent variety of both Western and Korean options. Firm mattresses, one in our party did not like. Down pillows were nice but sink a little too much for my taste. AC was fantasic. Short walk to bus stop, metro, a moneybox, and main tourist area of Insadong but enough away for quiet nights. Loved the bathroom amenities but in the room we were in the shower was a sort of frosted glass from half way up. You could see everything, top up, of whoever was in the shower if the bathroom light was on. This can be awkward for a family with older children. Laundry, vending machine, small gym, and water station on 2nd floor. Overall, would stay again.

I have no complaints. This hotel was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay available to us. The staff was friendly and very helpful. My room was private and quiet. The hotel offers breakfast as well as, a cafe offering a variety of food and drinks. The location is exceptional. We were able to walk to most of the destinations we wanted to visit.
