  Perfect location, right by Ikseon, plenty of cafes, restaurants, bars and shops, two metro stations nearby and walking distance to two of the main palaces and other attractions. Comfortable bed, good size room with a nice view – lovely rooftop was a plus too. Great staff. Small but functional gym.
