4/5
Highlights: The staff are friendly and kind. The rooms are spacious and well kept. The lobby is stylish. The common room is well equipped, and they offer free laundry services. The location is handy for those wanting to be in a touristy area with lots of shops, cafes and food within walking distance. It's a good area for a bit of late night drinking or BBQ. There are multiple convenience stores within a 2 minute walk, and there are two stations less than 10 minutes away.Lowlight: The mattress was super uncomfortable. Too hard and thin. I found it difficult to get a good night sleep and even had some bruising from the springs on my left thigh.

Prices are good because there is no luxury lobby and no porters. But sometimes you just need a room

Considering the price, the accommodation offers a great experience and value-for-money to stay in central Jongno district.The staff was very friendly but note that the check-in desk is not permanently occupied. However, the check-in system is also self explanatory.All in all, it was a pleasant experience. Thank you very much!

Convenient for sightseeing as it is close to the Hanokgai district and cultural heritage district. I used it because the price was a time discount, but I won't use it at the regular price. It's a reasonable hotel for the price. Information on recommended nearby restaurants was written in Hangul and was very difficult for Japanese people to understand, but it was very helpful to learn about popular local restaurants. We had a pleasant time.

There are a lot of Chinese people on the surrounding streets, including the manager. The rooms are clean and a bit out of the way. The price was 60,000 per night, but the value for money was quite good. It was clean and the lounge was small, but it felt like a hotel.

Overall, the hotel room was okay. Bed was somewhat comfortable and room was clean and warm.The heating system was really good but often made the room so dry, that static electricity would build up.The rooms walls are very thin and heard the room next to us have sex at night. To the point where it could be heard across the entire floor.Customer service was alerted about this but simply said they checked out, so we should have no issue. The same night on the bottom floor I could hear another couple moaning extremely loudly....Location is good with a lot of food and places to visit literally 1 minute away. Go through the back alleys and you will find some golden gems.Value for money is good for a solo traveller but not for couples !
