Reviews

• Eden from New Caledonia (9/10)

  Everything was find the room, the location near by a lot of coffees, shops & restaurants. Also near by a lot of public transport such as the bus & the train. There are also a lot of convenience stores & ATMs near by.
  The owner & the staff are very friendly. The owner give goods advice & recommend some good place to go. He also help us at our arrival with the taxi driver. The taxi driver wanted to charge us 150 000 krw where we should have been charge 80 000 krw. Hopefully the owner was here.

• Jessenea from Spain (9/10)

  Good location and the rooms are not too small as many comments said. You can storage your checked bags under the main table and the hand bags in the closet.

• Mailanel from Australia (8/10)

  The staff were excellent. Sean was very friendly and welcoming. Both he and Sharon spoke English well and were so responsive to my queries. I really appreciate all the info and help they have given me. I would go back to this hotel just because of their exceptional customer service. The best I've experienced in my first time in South Korea. Though hotel has basic amenities, they did provide microwave on every floor and free water bottles. They also included free laundry facilities in the room which would be useful for me if my stay was longer. Great location too, short walking distance to the nearest subway and Insadong shopping.

• Apanic from Thailand (8/10)

• Yvonne from New Zealand (9/10)

  Great location, it’s close just a drop away from insandong and hanok village. There’s a plethora of food places, you will not go hungry staying here. Staff were really friendly and helpful too. Thank you to the staff 🙂

• Eeleen from United Kingdom (9/10)

  We love the fact it is so close to the Hanok village with plenty of eateries around. You have to try the salted breads and the cafes around the area. The property itself is great with a washing machine. The shower pressure was one of the best we have ever had. The staffs were all very helpful and friendly. It is also not far from the metro.

• Umberto from Italy (9/10)

  The position was super central in the nightlife area, however in a small street allowing it to be acceptably silent.
  Washing machine available for use.
  Staff was very nice and always helping.

• Verena from United Kingdom (8/10)

  Great location, friendly and helpful staff, good amenities. Excellent value

• Tc from Australia (9/10)

  Central location next to markets, shops, convenient stores, cafes and restaurants. Close to the train station and easy to get to. Room was clean, with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash provided. Additional daily amenities like towels, bottled water, and toilet paper can be self-collected from the lobby. Room also includes a TV, washing machine, and kitchenette with stove. Staff can communicate in English and are professional, friendly and very helpful. QR codes printed in the room that direct to instructional videos on how to use the air conditioning, washing machine, etc. Room is small but closet is provided to store items. I would stay here again as it had everything I needed.
