Its location is perfect. Near the City hall station and the airport limousine stop. It is also walking distance to important places in Seoul like Gwanghwamun square, Gyeongbokgung palace and Cheonggyecheon. The staff are also accommodating and very helpful.
This place is a little off the touristy streets and quiet at night so just perfect to have that reset a long day of travel and tour in the city.

The staff were friendly and helpful, which was very important to me. There was a doorman greeting us. The room was cozy. However, they didn't have a heater in the bathroom, so I felt cold when using the beathroom.

if you are carrying heavy luggage, better go to city hall station exit 5 that with an escalator. The hotel is 20mins walk away from Meyongdong main street. There is special ice skating event nearby in winter time.

I got a room without windows… due to winter… no aircon… only useless blower or heater…so hot till cannot sleep… in the end I open the door to let corridor air to flow in…
Remote control all in Korea language… in the end I just anyhow press the switches… at least a card show the switch layout in English.
Room is small, no shaver, no toothbrush, no comb, no body lotion… the excuses they give is government law… if like this … they can give upon request…the hotel management just want to earn more money from customers .
Hotel near City Hall Station…travel easy… hotel near to Koreana Hotel…

Great location - very close to City Hall subway station, walking distance to Namdaemun and Myeongdong and then cool nightlife scene alone the river. The roads around City Hall are close and traffic jammed due to protests on th weekend, so keep that in mind if you have to leave or arrive in a car.
They don't offer free toiletries anymore, but there is a vending machine in the lobby for those extra items. The door in our room 300 was a little hard to close and you'd basically had to slam it to close it properly but the room was very clean and had good cable TV. Nice bakery cafe place in the lobby and it's right near Starbucks and across the street from an Olive Young, so there's already lots of shopping opportunities nearby.

The Cleanliness could however be better though.
The price is fair and you get what you pay for.

Their bed is memory foam. Very classic colours like black and gold for the design, even the lobby, which can make it slightly gloomy. They are using AI function in the room by asking the iPad to switch off the lights and curtain. There is no shampoo and soap provided. Overall, I enjoyed my stay v cosy environment.
Response from Property: Dear Guest,Thank you for staying with us and taking your time to post the feedback about your experience with our hotel.
