The location of the hotel is excellent -- a couple of blocks from Insadong, and close to metro stops. Loved the location. Hotel is modern and clean -- has pay laundry machines. My room -- 904 -- was fine --snug, but I was solo so no problem. I think it was normal for Seoul. My only concern was the street noise. The hotel is on a busy street, and so I asked for a quiet room on the side of the building, directly facing an office building -- no view. That was fine with me. But even then, the noise of the street was audible. I couldn't help wondering why such a nice hotel doesn't invest in soundproof windows. Problem solved. It wasn't a dealbreaker for me as I use good earplugs, but my guess is that the rooms on the street could be noisy for light sleepers. I very much liked rhe hotel, especially the location and the price point, and I would probably stay there again.

This hotel is situated in a great place to see many sights. A wonderful shopping district right behind it. Great bed and bedding and the bathroom shower was large enough for my very tall and larger person. we had to leave early for a tour and we asked about coffee, and the staff said she would have it ready for us before our tour left at 6:30 am! GREAT SERVICE

This hotel is in a great location, within walking distance of palaces and temples, while surrounded by a very business-like district. Easy to get around by walking and using the subway. Comfortable and quiet room (if very slightly small). A great place from which to enjoy Seoul

Great stay!

Hotel Breakfast buffet was great- lots of variety but mostly Korean food. Bathroom set up with glass walls and auto flush toilets may not be ideal if you’re traveling with people other than close family - we stay in 2 single bed room as there were no doubles or king sized bedrooms left. Location was quick walk to nearby tourist destinations, without it being busy. The airport bus was 5 min walk from the hotel. Great stay - would come back again

I like the fact that easy access or near shopping area, but room is too small, no space for luggages and only mirror in the bathroom, it would be nicer if there is map for places to go or shopping because most foreigners are not formiliar to direction where about so nice to have map to look for the places for directions.
