I’m staying here for 3 days (mid January) and already I’m digging this place. Super nice staff. They even help me and my girlfriend to our room with our bags. The room is small but really clean with a queen size bed. The bathroom is nice and clean as well. The room comes with A/C (not needed in January lol) and the bed has a heating pad on it (definitely needed in January). It’s got WiFi, TV and it’s own bathroom. The only complaint I have is that there is no elevator and they only put 2 small towels in the bathroom, but for the price and quality you can’t beat it! It’s a short walk to Insadong (shopping) and the main Seoul Palace. The food around here is good cheap and last but not least. This place is right on three subway lines (lines 1, 3 and 5).

It's quiet considering it's in a busy area, they don't come to clean, you can eat whatever you want in the morning, and the route is convenient.
