The location is very good, very close to Myeongdong main streetJust a few steps away you can reach a very lively placeThere is an Apple store down there, and there is an elevator next to it that you can go up to.Go to the lobby on the ninth floor to check in first. It will be a little more troublesome to go up to another elevator.A welcome drink is provided upon check-in.You can choose whether you want wine or juiceThe room is more than enough for two 28-inch suitcases.However, there is a small disadvantage, that is, there is noise from the air conditioner at night, but you can still fall asleep, but it is not recommended for people who are sensitive to sound.The service staff at the counter are also quite friendly. It is considered a hotel that I will visit again and again.

If you're looking for a hotel that is in the heart of Myeongdong, this is a great choice. The airport bus (Bus 6015) drops you off 50m from the hotel so it's super convenient getting to and from Incheon airport. …
