    Close to metro. Clean and safe despite the neighbourhood. Perfekt view from the roof top.

  • Thibaut from United States (8/10)

    Great hotel with a central location, semi close to all of the city's main places to visit. Area right around the hotel is a bit boring but very easy to reach interresting areas.

  • Yi from Singapore (1/10)

    – location to Myeongdong (20min walk) but not much of an upside because there are many properties that offer the same

    Location

  • Xuexi from Netherlands (8/10)

    Locatie is goed, 1 halte van Myeongdong. Fijn dat er een wasmachine beschikbaar is. Beneden zit er een convenience store. We konden eerder inchecken. Handig dat je met een pincode naar binnenkom. Er vertrekt een airport bus vlakbij het hotel. Kamer ziet er groter uit op de foto’s. Maar verblijf was prima voor 2 dagen.

  • José from France (7/10)

    L'emplacement vraiment bien situé pour visiter tout Séoul
