Great location and close by the metro. There is only 1 elevator so if it get busy you might have to wait a bit to get to the rooms, but luckily there isn't to many floor so didn't experience having to wait for next elevator but once. The room is well sound isolated toward noise from the street, but noise from the hallway can travle easily

Conveniently located near train station and Myeongdong restaurants and shopping. Hotel room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Amenities provided were great. Huge plus was free laundry especially since we visited during the hot humid summer days. AC was perfect. Staff was also very kind and helpful.

The rooms were clean, the bathrooms were good. The toilet keypads was not translated like the other hotels. The reception staff were very off-putting, in checking-in we wanted two rooms next to each other, which we understand is not possible for a last minute booking but we just wanted to ask, his answer could've been less aggressive. We received one of the two rooms that wasn't with a view, so he was accommodating in changing it. I tried to explain that we did open the window and it was stuck opened but he couldn't understand me. When checking out the older receptionist straight out lied to us that taxis don't come here, and we had 3 big bags. We did get a taxi to our destination! It has a good location in the middle of everything, except the reception staff, everything was great, even cleaning lady understood nothing we said but she managed to help us.

Room environment: The experience of staying in a deluxe room for 3 nights was very good. The room was clean and could open 2 large suitcases. The water pressure in the bathtub is normal, but the water removal equipment needs to be improved. The bed was very comfortable.Location: Located in the Myeongdong business district, there are already shopping areas, restaurants, and convenience stores nearby.Reception staff are polite

The room is relatively small. There is basically no room for two large luggages. The location is good. Myeongdong Night Market is just downstairs. …
