The property is small but very clean.Bed is comfortable. Rooms are small but has all the amenities and quite comfortable. The staff is friendly. Location is close to subway and Korean market. The hotel is tucked in a side lane and off a very busy street. This location is walkable distance from palaces. You walk through the art street which is quite cool. I would stay there again.

I stayed there for two nights. The area is conveniently located to various sightseeing areas. This hotel seems to be surrounded by socalled love hotel and may be one of them , too. The hotel is well updated. The floor is all marvel and the bed was exceptionally comfort, although the comforter I used may have not been washed after someone used it. Don't expect too much for the free breakfast unless you like instant ramen very much. The staff were kind but they didn't know where the airport shuttle stops.

Great little hotel in a good location
Great little hotel in a good location. A couple of fixtures could do with fixing - like the tap in the room (it was a little wobbly). But the room was nice, bed was very comfy and the staff were helpful.

It is a new building the interior is black and depressing. The room was small and no place to put suitcases we had four large ones. The bed was every soft. Location was hard to get to we had ten cab rides and not one was able to get to entrance. The area is very busy.

The hotel and room was a little bit of a challenge to find. But the location is very close to the subway station and there are several things to see and do all with in walking distance. Clean and quiet. We had a wonderful stay and felt very safe.
