    I like this location. It is very convenient to get to from the airport. It is close to Myeongdong, Gyeongbokgung Palace, and Namsan Tower. There are many transportation options around. There are also many restaurants that are open until late, but they don’t disturb my rest (maybe I am not a very sensitive person)
