• Stepfa from Austria (10/10)

  Location is excellent, rooms are quiet, that you can wash your laundry is a nice service. Breakfast changes every day.

• Green from United Kingdom (10/10)

  Convenient location, very polite and friendly. Excellent English speakers, made me feel very welcome. The room was fantastic, well maintained, super clean and spacious. Great value for money and a good late morning check out time as standard. Highly recommend.

• Dora from Australia (8/10)

  Perfect location and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend staying here if you want a nice hotel that won’t break the bank. It isn’t luxurious, but it’s clean, comfortable and in an excellent location.

• Leonid from Canada (10/10)

  The location is fantastic. The hotel is very close to many attrations and at the same time somewhat quiet.
  As a plus, the hotel has coin laundry, which helps travel light.
  The staff was amazing as well.

• Erdinc from Singapore (9/10)

  I would highly recommend the location, right next to Insadong shopping street, restaurants, bars, bakeries etc. and also in walking distance to the two famous palaces and Jogyesa temple that are among the main attractions. Getting from the airport was easy and affordable with bus #6002, but you can also take #6011. Google Maps shows you these options and works well in Seoul. I would imagine it would be pretty costly by taxi as it was around 1.5 hour journey each way. The rooms are basic but clean with comfortable beds and we also got a quiet corner room on the top floor, so no complaints there.
