  The reception is good, the breakfast is good, coffee is available for free throughout the stay, the smile never leaves their faces, and they are ready to provide any service inside or outside the hotel. We did not find the location easily.

• Andreas from United Kingdom (9/10)

  This hotel is not cheap but given Seoul seems expensive (also judging by scanning other hotel options) we were pleasantly surprised by the good quality and thus value for money we received. This includes very spacious rooms, a good inclusive breakfast and cute little roof terrace with some tables, chairs and a nice view (especially at night). Two times went up there it was just us with our drinks and snacks, playing cards and enjoying the view – fab!
  The location is convenient with 2 metro/subway station very close (5 minutes walk) as well as a local high street with all kind of shops and restaurants. It is also in walking distance of Ikseon-dong Hanok Village, a popular attraction for visitors and locals on evenings and weekends for food, drink and strolling around.

• Chih from Taiwan (9/10)

  Great location to visit Seoul. The hotel is located in the hub of subway,1,3,5 route, so it's very convenient to transfer to every famous spots of the city. Furthermore, the room is cozy, clean and large with a decent price. Nearby the hotel, it's easy to find local restaurants and stands,within walking distance from subway station, Jongno 3rd street. Suggest to take exit with the escalator.
