Very convenient location to market and dongdaemun. There are restaurants close by. They also have a 24 hour automated shop in the hotel where you can purchase snacks or drinks in the middle of the night. However the rooms are a little small for 2 big luggages so you can't have your luggage open up all day. The road into the hotel isn't that great either but it's well lit.

Loved the service, staff was really nice and welcoming. It's just the facilities were a little old. There were rust stains on the towel, some of the wallpaper was peeling off. Plus it was a little hard to find.

Great service; you receive two water bottles for free every day. The availability of microwaves and washing machines was very convenient. Small, but sufficient, rooms for people who spend most time exploring Seoul and little time at the hotel. Great price. The surrounding area is a bit rough and dirty, but only 100-200m from the hotel you have great options for restaurants, busses/trains etc.

I was surprised.

The hotel was very clean, the attendant was nice and speaks english. The entrance is a little hard to find since it’s like in an alley but it’s a nice, quiet area. The size of the room was about the same as a NYC hotel room. They have a mini fridge, electric water boiler, complimentary water and coffee. Bathrooms are small but comfortable. My only complaint is that the beds were a little hard, like solid for me. Overall, I would definitely use this hotel again.

The hotel is nestled in the middle of buildings. Had a fun time searching for it like a game challenge. Google Maps helped me tremendously. Perhaps the management can share pictures of the ways to find it. Love the many shops & cafes all around. Many convenient bus stops to all over Seoul. Comfy bed, clean compact room & the basement automated shop, pantry & laundry is a nice touch, Will definitely consider staying again next time. Thanks a lot for accommodating me!

Late to review but due to the property's great quality, took the time to post this. A few staff are capable to speak in English so communication was fine. Room was clean and well-maintained with HDMI cable to watch movies. Cleaning staff are also friendly. However, the toilet drainage is slow so water will spill outside into the room when we showered. Overall, it's a great deal for the price.

I would not book at this motel again. The staff at the desk tried to cheat us by asking for $50000 wons for an extra key to the room which we pay not knowing it should only be 10,000 wons. When we check out they say it was only $10,000 wons. We disagreed and they looked at their cctv camera and my husband was blocking the view of the money transaction. So it was his words against ours. The owner just sighed and say I know how frustrating it was. They didn’t defend their opinion too much and ended up giving the money. However that left a bad impression on us. Plus hotel in an alley and it was hard to find at night. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone especially over sea customer. Lastly the room has stained on wall and the bathroom door has cracked on it. The only good thing was they cleaned our room everyday.
