  We stayed at Moxy Seoul Insadong during our family vacation and we had a great time there. The staff are friendly and helpful. The location is excellent, so many places in walking distance and to see something further away, the subway station is just in front of the hotel. The bathroom is great, European style, we valued that a lot.
