good value for the price and location
The hotel is good value if you are looking for low-priced accommodation in the centre of Seoul. The price comes with downsides in terms of room size, space for luggage, view from windows (to a wall) etc. The room was overheated for my taste but since the window could not be opened I had to resort to using the aircon to get down to a bearable temperature. Also, bizarrely, neither my phone nor tablet would connect to the wifi. It briefly worked while the nice receptionist was there to check but then cut out again and remained on 'disconnected'.

Everything is good except for tiny room and poor Housekeeping. Location is great, can walk to Namdaemun market, Myeongdong and Euljiro1-ga. Lots of eateries outside hotel. Do note that hotel is nearest to City Hall stn exit7 but has stairs only. If you have huge luggage, will advise to walk further down to Exit5 escalator and across the road of Exit5 you can find lift. Staffs are friendly however Housekeeping not good. They basically pour away the coffee from room’s cup without washing, the coffee stain so obvious!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Friendly and helpful staff and great space, small but good enough for the price. The hotel is central located in City Hall so its easy to navigate around. Lotsa of eating places and Namdaemun Market is just right across. Only one flaw was that my room was cleaned even with the "do not disturb" sign, so just take note on that. Otherwise it is a great hotel, and would definitely comeback to stay.

Everything is good, check-in and check-out was quick and easy, friendly and helpful staffs, clean and quiet room, the room is bigger than expected, spacious enough for 3 luggage to lie flat on the floor, comfortable bed, decent breakfast, good wifi, good location, many restaurants nearby, the hotel is just few mins away from subway. Cons: Inconsistent water temperature in shower.
