It was a great stay, loved the fact it had a general store underneath. The room itself was really spacious and cozy. I was lucky enough to get a room at the 12th floor with a great view of the street. The place had a comfy sofa, a bidet bathroom, TV and an awesome hair dryer. All in all a great hotel that was close to all the main attractions in Seoul.
It was clean accessible to the closest subway there was access to food and we felt blessed to stay here. Absolutely loved the hotel accommodation of discounts for massages and other things
Decent hotel in a very good location, but the room was very small. Just enough space to shimmy past the wall-mounted TV. Comfortable enough bed, but nothing special. Friendly staff with both check in and departure.
This hotel's location is perfect for tourists as it is close to all the old palaces and markets. The room was super clean and the staff members were friendly and courteous! I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Seoul!
Cool view, there were renovations going on but we didn’t hear it. Staff was nice and a lot of cafes/food/shopping within walking distance. Public transportation is also very close
Great location, close to most things you could want to see in Seoul. A couple of minutes walk to a subway station which can get you anywhere. Everything was very easy with check in and leaving my bags with the reception staff before and after check out. Rooms was lovely. Would recommend.
I loved my stay here. The place was within walking distance to local restaurants. The hotel itself was nice and clean. Bathrooms are small but expected. The CU attached to the lobby was really nice too for late night snacks. The price wasn’t bad for how clean and nice the hotel was. I would stay here again in the future.
We chose N285 for its location and price. The location was great, right next to the Insadong market and subway. The room was small but very clean and comfortable. The staff was exceptionally helpful in arranging a tour to the DMZ and taxi to the airport and spoke great English. I highly recommend this hotel.
The staff was nice and the room just big enough for 2 adults. Rooms very clean and lots of light fixtures. Favorite part was it's right in the middle of Insadong and a 20 minute walk from Myeongdong. You're right in the middle of most places and 20 minute walk from must subway lines.
Close to shops and food. Great location. There is a convenience store by the lobby. Room is small though. Shower is in the same room as toilet and sink. Floor is wet when using sink and toilet.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Its pretty clean, walkable distance to changdeokgung, Myeongdong, insadong cultural street. Water pressure not the best but alright. People commented no space by the sink for a GIRL to put their make up stuff and what not... theres plenty of space in the room for you to put stuff, theres hidden storages. Theres quite a lot of space to lay your luggage around too. Convinence store right downstairs is super clutch for midnight snack or quite morning bite.
The location of this hotel was amazing. Close to buses, trains, and great food/shopping/activities.
The hotel said they are going through renovations, and we assume that is for the bar/lounge b/c it was a construction zone when we went down to check it out. There was a strange smell in our room from the shower drain so we opened windows to maintain it. It is a simple layout and provided what we needed for our time there.
