"Very comfy, clean and great for the value. The rooms are a bit on the smaller side but was more than enough for us and our luggage. The breakfast was very delicious and hearty. Location is ideal and I would definitely come back again! "
"Very clean facility, close to seoul central market and sindang station (5 min). For the location, price and the giant tub, definitely worth the price!! Clarify all check in details in advance and you won’t encounter any issues."
"This is a remodeled hotel so everything is new, clean and modern. The customer service is extraordinary and one of the best experience i have had. I left my sunglasses in my hotel room and they tried their best to ship my glasses out for me. We also landed early and they allowed early checked in with a fee.
It is right next to gwangjang market, dongdaemun market, near bus station, train station and a bus stop to incheon airport so it was super convenient."
"It’s my 2nd stay in this cosy guesthouse which has become my ‘go to’ for my annual Christmas & New Year trip to Seoul. It’s conveniently located near the train station & Dongdaemun Design Plaza which is my favourite museum to visit every year. Room is clean & the facilities in the house is simple & well managed. Take note that there is only stairs to access the different levels."
"It was great to have breakfast in the hotel and the location is convenient to many shopping malls. And the airport bus stop is right in front of the hotel "

10/10 Excellent
"Staff were very helpful and accommodating of needs; would definitely recommend to others and would stay there again when in Seoul! "
"Awesome location, close to subway stations. Hotel offered awesome amenities, close to many places. I would stay there again. Staff was very helpfull."
"I was very impressed with the property and the hotel as a whole! Our flight got delayed and we missed a day and the hotel was kind enough to hold onto our reservation even though it was clearly a popular time for tourists. They also checked us in extremely late and treated us with kindness all the way through. The staff was always courteous, kind, and helpful in making us feel comfortable during our stay and also helped me with a broken dryer that I was trying to use, and never once acted like it was something that was annoying or too difficult. To top it all off, this hotel was right in the heart of Seoul and was perfect to go literally anywhere there! We checked off just about everything we were looking to do in the time we were there and it was in large part due to the centrality of the hotel's location. I can't recommend this place enough and I know that if we ever come back to Seoul, we will certainly look to stay here first!"
"The front desk was super helpful. English was not a problem for them. When I needed extra blankets, they were delivered to the room in 5 minutes. The cleaning service was friendly and even though we asked for no service while we were staying, they still checked to se if we needed towels and toilet paper. The only minus was that the temperature of the hot tub was luke warm. But Koreans are very energy friendly.
At the end of our stay, they arranged a van for us to get to our hotel in Incheon. They also allowed us to check in early and held our luggage while we shopped. We will stay again next time we are in Seoul!"

"Decently sized for two people bringing a weeks worth of luggage. Very close to major subway and bus routes. Room was quiet, well cooled. Washroom is different from traditional western washroom but still clean and usable"
