Stayed for 7 nights and had a really good experience overall — excellent value for money. The location is ideal if you’re planning to enjoy the nightlife, though there isn’t a huge amount to do in the immediate area during the day, so we found ourselves using trains to get around quite a bit. The room was clean, modern, and well-maintained, with a particularly nice bathroom. We were on the 10th floor and didn’t experience any noise issues, which made for a comfortable stay.

The hotel is in a fairly good location away from the noise of Itaewon night life but close enough to almost everything. Beds were comfortable and the decor was modern and fresh with a youthful vibe. Staff were helpful as I had a little issue with booking via Uber app and they were quick to assist. The socket in the room is mostly 220 and you would need an adaptor. Coming from the US, I wasn’t prepared for this but they were kind enough to offer an adaptor or you could get one at a nearby convenience store. There are a lot of restaurants in the area and if you like some night life, this is also a good place.

Very easy to find, short walk from subway. Modern, stylish, clean and quiet. The neighborhood has many cute cafes, restaurants and shops. I’d stay there again. They also allowed you to leave your luggage for free later pickup on the day you check out so you could enjoy your last day in Seoul if your flight was later in the day. Staff were helpful and friendly.
