"Good"

"Small, but clean room. Staff was helpful and friendly, particularly Ms. Joy helped check in early, which was super convenient. Breakfast was 18,000 won (approximately 12.21 USD). Subway line 5 (Seodaemun) exit 8 is right in front of the hotel."

"very good"

"Room was spotless and I loved everything about it. The bedding is probably THE BEST I've come across while traveling so far. All the hotel staff were so kind and helpful, it was the best service I've ever experienced at a hotel so far. The bakery on the first floor has amazing pastries, and the dinner buffet at Parkview was amazing. Every time I visit Korea, there's always so many foods I want to try but eating here really fulfills that. All the dishes were amazing. The only downside to the hotel is that it's up on a hill, and there's nothing really close by walking distance (convenience store, activities, etc), especially in the colder seasons. I look forward to visiting again!"

"Good location, 3 blocks from the Myeongdong market. Room was clean. Service was good"
