We are out of business! ! You can still make reservations on reservation sites, but when I got there, it was in ruins. If you don't want to find a hotel locally, don't make a reservation!I hope there are no other victims besides me...For those who have fallen victim like me, there is a 24-hour super public bath called Sparex within taxi distance. You can spend the night in the small fish sleeping corner there.

If you come from incheon airport you have a bus stop in front of the hotel, if you use the train you have chungmuro station one block away. It’s super close to myeondong street and has great connections. Confy rooms, laundry and a great kitchen. Awesome hotel to stay in Seoul

Kindness of the staff who helped us from the first minute. We had our room upgraded and were provided with recyclable breakfast glasses and tote bags as gifts. Structure with all comforts, equipped with laundry room, gym and relaxation area. Our room was large and clean, a stone's throw from the heart of Myeongdong. Thank you for a wonderful stay! ❤️

Rooms are spacious enough, relatively clean and comfortable. Reception staff helpful and pleasant, especially Amy Lim (kudos to her).Very useful to o have a pantry that one can get fresh coffee, some snacks and drinking water and even heat up and eat a simple meal.Like most Seoul hotels, must bring own shavers, toothbrushes, though some basic toiletries provided. Best complimentary stuff are the branded Klair cosmetics samples in the lobby and the coffee mug for the complimentary coffee.Only catch of the hotel is it’s on the edge of busy Myeongdong so not right in the thick of action. Myeongdong station is 5-10 minutes walk away. The rooftop is also closed and gym onto accessible except for long term guests. Plenty of excellent local eateries where one can mingle with locals and enjoy the local residential area vibes.

Room was a good size and very clean. Good shower! Great location (6001 bus drops you right outside and on the way back from the airport you just cross the road).However overall I think this property was overpriced (compared to other hotels in Seoul with larger rooms) as there is NO rooftop. I booked through Expedia and all the photos are of the rooftop and terrace - which staff told me closed in March 2024?. I felt misled.

It was a comfortable stay except for the fact that many plugs were not connected to electricity and only two could be used. I was lucky to be able to use a 110V Japanese style plug. I was glad that there was an ion dryer with a large airflow.When I informed them that there was no water in the refrigerator in the room, I was glad that the person in charge at the front desk responded politely. I had a good impression at check-in and check-out.Myeong-dong is within walking distance, but Namsan Park is in the back, so it's quiet, and the nearest Chungmuro ​​Station is also connected to Line 3 heading towards Gangnam, so transportation is very convenient. Next time I will come by limousine bus.

The transportation location is very convenient:1. For your first self-guided trip, take the 6001 airport bus from the airport. You can easily get off at the bus stop about 3 minutes in front of the hotel. When returning to the airport, you only need to cross the road to the opposite bus stop and take the 6001 bus back to the airport. This is very useful for first-time self-guided travelers. convenient.2. The hotel is only about a 5-minute walk from Exit 4 of Zhongwu Road Station of Line 3/Line 4.3. It is very convenient to take the bus to Myeongdong, Dongdaemun, Namsan Seoul Tower and other tourist attractions.4. There is Namsangol Hanok Village nearby, and you can go there for free.Hotel interior:1. The hotel has a novel design. Although the light in the room is really dark, please remember to turn on the light strip above the headboard to brighten up the light. However, because you go shopping late at night, the lighting is very dim. Darkness is acceptable.2. There are many plugs in the hotel, including 110V and USB plugs. You can also use them without adapters.3. The double bed standard room has a lot of space, and two 28-inch suitcases can be spread out without any problem.4. The bed is very soft. After shopping all day, I returned to the hotel and slept until dawn.5. The elevator has access control and can only beep to reach the floor where you live, which is highly safe.6. It’s great that the hair dryer is not wall-mounted.7. The water pressure and temperature of the toilet are great8. If the room is not cleaned every day, the housekeeper will thoughtfully hang the supplies on the door handle.9. The room is on the 7th floor of the building, facing the main road. The sound insulation is good and you will not hear the traffic on the road.10. The counter service staff are all girls and have very good attitudes. The service of storing luggage after check-out is also great.Based on the above, it is really recommended that travelers who come to Seoul for their own stay can check in and experience the above-mentioned advantages!
