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.

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!

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.

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.

部屋も広く、清潔感もあり快適に過ごせました。 部屋にマッサージチェアがあったので、毎日使用しました。 交通の便もよく市庁駅まで歩いて5分。そこから地下鉄で1駅でソウル駅。 マイナス点は •部屋にセキュリティボックスがない •ジャケットを描けるハンガークロークが、とても高い位置にあり、棒で引っ掛けて取るようになっていて面倒。 全体的には快適に過ごさせていただきました。

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 .

親2人、子供2人で宿泊。 ダブルベットは毎日ベットメイクしていただけましたが、 子供は2段ベットは3泊一度もなかったです。 1泊目にベッドメイク依頼をしましたがしてもらえなかったので、諦めました、、(多分掃除の人は2人だと思ってる?) 掃除も甘く、2段ベットの下など見えない部分の埃が掃除されないままだったのが残念でした。 見えてる部分は綺麗にしてくださります! フロントの方は親切で24時間チェックインが出来て良かったです。 チェックアウト後も荷物預かっていただけます。 ただ、毎日シーツは新しいし、タオルも交換いただけて虫もでない、朝ごはんも一通り食べれるものがありコスパのかなり良いホテルでした。 あと、ロビーに猫ちゃんがいてかわいいです。

E qui finiscono i rapporti che avrete con il personale. Nessuno saluterà più né quando arrivate né quando andate via né tantomeno quando farete il check out .
