Good place. Very close to Namdaemun Market and Namdaemun Underground Shopping Street. Lots of restaurants around the hotel. Walking distance to Myeongdong Market and the Seoul Plaza (which had events on the weekend we were there)! They serve Korean and American breakfast at their buffet.

Comfortable beds and excellent location. Layout of the family room is poorly designed. No wardrobes provided. The toilet door made such a noise that it was better to leave it opened throughout our 6 days stay. The curtain separating the bath was unusable. It kept sliding down. No privacy.

Dated hotel. Scratches everywhere. No safe so we had to carry passport and cash all the time. No closet or drawers for storage. Room is good size with 2 queen beds, but mattress is basic. Small window, no natural light. Friendly and accommodating staff. Convenient location with lots of food choices and street shopping . Very close to subway station. Breakfast changed few items everyday. Two showers which I thought it was very convenient given that we are a group of 4, but then staff told us not to use one of them given that it is dirty and difficulties clean???!!! Weird.

For the price you pay, this hotel offers the best value. The building is not brand-new, but it's well maintained and clean. The breakfast buffet was great, and the location was excellent for all kinds of touristy stuff. The highlight was the hospitality. All the staff were very friendly, professional and helpful. We felt very welcomed during our stay. Plus, their cat was super cute and playful! No litter smell or anything. We'd recommend this place to our friends and family for sure.

Room had enough space to move my 3 luggages around. Staff was kind and even offered early check-in! Daily buffet breakfast was excellent! There's an amenities vending machine in lobby. Very walkable to Namdaemun and Myeongdong for shopping, and the restaurants nearby open until late. Nearby Airport Bus route!

It’s very convenient and only minutes to walk to Myeongdong. And I like the fact that this hotel has the chair massager it helps us a lot for a tiring tour day that we have. The only thing I don’t like is you can hear your next door .

Modern and spacious

The room was very modern with high ceiling, black tiles, and nice lighting. It had a table with 4 stools, a desk with a chair next to the minifridge, and a table by the bathroom. The quality bedding was comfortable, the mattress firm. My kids really liked the bunk beds tucked away in there own cove. It gave the feeling of privacy and separation between sleeping areas. The tv was large and comfortable to watch from the bed. The bathroom, while impressive looking, was a touch odd. There is no door separating the bathroom from the room. There is a door to the toilet. There was a large tub with a shower head next to the toilet and then another separate shower area across from the toilet. I was excited by the idea of the tub thinking it would keep the rest of the bathroom floor dry. It didn't as it leaked water down from the tile edges. The bath shower is separated from the toilet with a black glass wall. If you are close you can see the person in the toilet. And you can see the person showering when you are on the toilet. My young teenage kids didn't shower here during our 2 night stay as there was no privacy and they don't like being naked in front of each other. This is made worse by the Korean towels which are like hand towels and don't cover your body. Overall, the room felt luxurious compared to some of the other hostels we'd been in. The breakfast was delicious with many options: eggs, ham/bacon, bulgogi, noodles, veggies, toast, tofu/dumpling soup, rice porridge, & fruit.
