Reviews

  • Veronika from Russia (9/10)

    It was a comfortable to live here. The hotel location is amazing: metro station and bus stop near the hotel. Information about check-in was a day earlier before our arrival. The room was clean.

  • Hwee from Singapore (9/10)

    Reasonably sized and well equipped! Apartment was comfortable for 2, and was clean and cosy. Great location as well, within mins walk from Chungmuro station. Area was quiet and peaceful.

  • Ewelina from Poland (9/10)

    I rate my stay very highly. The place is equipped with everything that makes the stay easier. The apartment is very clean. The staff is very nice and helpful. Thank you for assisting with contacting the restaurant where I left my souvenir. During our stay of over a week, we were able to change towels, borrow a steamer, and receive toilet paper. There are two shops downstairs. At night, it is quiet compared to my previous stay in Myeongdong. There are many recommended restaurants around. Everything is close by. Finally, there is a beautiful view of N Seoul Tower from the window. You can check in earlier. Each hour costs 10,000 WON.

  • Gar from United Kingdom (6/10)

    Took a while to figure out where to go as was connected to another hotel. Wasn’t sure if I used the same lifts as I did self check in.
