I had a great experience here. The entire property was very clean and well-maintained. On top of that, the staff was amazing—they went above and beyond to help me out after I forgot my earphones at the hotel. Fully satisfied and highly recommended!

The location of this place is what makes it worth it. Amenities were okay, you have to ask for big towels otherwise they won’t give them to you, rooms are small. The staff was friendly . Overall it was a nice stay

We chose this hotel for its price (budget friendly) and location (a quick 3-5 minute walk to restaurant row and shops). The rooms are tiny by American standards, but they were clean and well kept. Staff was helpful, but the desk clerk was only on duty 9 AM till 11 PM. Wi-Fi and air conditioning were fine. All in all, this place served us well and fit our budget for the few days we were there.

we will come again. Location is very good. we did private transfer from incheon airport. about 1 hr drive. We booked 2 rooms for 3 nights. Room is ok size but we had 29 inch luggage so it was a struggle. we basically slept and showered only so it was ok for us. The bathroom is tiny, the shower head is on top of the sink. there’s a funky smelly smell coming from the drains. we bought air freshener for the bathroom. There’s a hot water dispenser and microwave in the kitchen . We like the place for the location. we love iksedong. we walk there to eat every night. small lively restaurants and shops. Convenience store everywhere. We walked to Insadong shopping. We walked to Gyeongbokgung palace and hanok village maybe 25 mins. We walked to myeondong market maybe 30 mins. Walked to Gwanjang market. We took train to Gangnam and Starfield library. and Hannriver. Our family is used to walking in the city so 25-30 min walk didnt bother us. We wore sneakers the whole time. there’s a train station nearby, maybe 5 min walk. I see people leave their luggages in the lobby either for early checkin or they will elave for the aipprt later in the day. You can hear the peolple in the other room. but we were tired so we slept.

スタッフはフレンドリーでとても感じが良いです。ただ、部屋はあまり清潔ではなかったし、シーツには茶色いシミが付いていました。また、シャワーの水圧は低く、お湯もでませんでした。ロケーションとスタッフは抜群に良かったです。

저렴한 가격이고 좀 오래된 느낌의 숙박시설인것을 미리 알아서 기대를 크게 안했는데 가격대비 괜찮은 곳이었어요. 냉난방시설과 드라이어, 냉장고,커피포트 있었어요. 개인물품 치약칫솔 같은 건 개인이 준비하셔야 해요. 침대도 1인룸인데 2인용으로 넓어서 좋았어요. 수도꼭지에 샤워기가 붙어있는데 방향 전환도 쉽게 되질 않아 첨에 당황했는데 천천히 해보니 잘 돼서 상관없었네요. 단점은 수건세탁을 했음에도 냄새가 나는거 낡은 욕실이라 개미같은 아주 작은 벌레가 좀 보였던거 이외에 저는 만족스러웠어요. 직원분도 너무 친절하셨어요. 여러 나라 여행을 자주 다니는 편인데 워낙 저렴한 가격이어서(이건 언제 어떻게 예약하느냐에 따라 편차 있음) 만족하고 위치도 좋아서 다음에도 이용할 마음 있어요!!
