10/10 Excellent
"I have stayed at this hotel on multiple occasions. Always excellent. Location in not so tourist area amongst normal Korean life but still walking distance to Insadong and Myeondong. (25-30 mins). Great connections with 2 subway lines within a few minutes walk. Room amenities excellent especially washing machine. Reception staff always friendly and helpful. I will be staying again!"
