GGuest UserThe perfect location for those who have a packed schedule in Seoul! The ***** of food stalls and shopping provides the perfect stroll.
The staff are all so kind and willing to help and chat.
We found the bed in the room a little hard, but that’s because we love a super soft mattress. Otherwise it was all wonderful!

AAnonymous UserThe location is very nice. You can easily walk to Myeongdong, Namsan Tower, and many restaurants, and transportation is convenient. The staff were very kind and helpful.
However, it’s difficult for me to say this was a good stay overall.
Here are the reasons why:
• Elevator – The elevator is only for luggage, not for guests. This should be clearly stated before booking. As in here it’s show as the property has an elevator without explaining that it is a cargo elevator, it is misleading.
• Security – The room password was simply the room number with an additional “1” added to it. I didn’t leave valuables in the room, so I wasn’t too worried, but it still felt like a weak security system.
• Room Door – There is no additional lock on the inside of the room. While the digital lock can be activated, I never felt completely confident that the door was fully secured.
• Soft Opening Without Notice – When I booked, there was no mention that the property was still in a soft-opening stage. I expected the hotel to be fully operational. Instead, there were unfinished areas, items left around the property, and staff frequently entering rooms after check-in to inspect or photograph things without being asked. Had I known the hotel was not fully ready, I would have considered other options before booking.
• Poor Room Layout – My room was 405, located at the end of the hallway. The neighboring room (404) had a door positioned in a way that it would hit my door whenever opened carelessly. During my four-night stay, the guests next door banged their door into mine repeatedly. Eventually, at around 1 a.m. one night, I had to contact the staff and ask them to address the issue.
• Cleanliness Concerns – The property appears to use the same type of towel for everything. When I asked about a bathroom mat, I was told to use a towel instead. This gave me the impression that the towels were being used for multiple purposes, including drying floors. On top of that, the towels shed lint and left fibers on my skin after use.
• Very Small Bathroom – Please be aware that the bathroom is extremely small. The shower is positioned directly over the toilet, and there is barely enough room to stand while showering. In practice, you almost need to sit on the toilet to shower comfortably.
After two nights, I seriously considered moving to another hotel. The only reason I stayed was because my mother didn’t want to move all of our belongings again.
To be fair, one of the staff members (possibly the owner) sincerely apologized and explained that they were trying their best. I do believe they genuinely care and are making an effort. However, there is still a long way to go before this property is ready to provide a comfortable hotel experience.

GGuest UserTop top, big room, close to a metro, easy to travel. We had a week in Seoul so didn’t mind to spend more time in the metro. If you’re only here for a few days, I would recommend a more central neighborhood. But of course more expensive. Well worth the money for us

LLeonardDA very good option for staying for a week. Spacious rooms, an elevator, good in-room amenities, and pleasant staff. First of all, the area is excellent. It’s a lively, authentic Seoul, and just outside the neighborhood you’ll find postcard-worthy spots and major tourist attractions. Staying here allows you to experience the rhythm of daily life alongside local Seoul residents and really feel the city from the inside. Plus there's also many convenient metro stations nearby. As for the hotel itself, there are both positives and negatives. Starting with the downsides: maybe I was just unlucky, but the shower head was in very poor condition and barely worked. Hopefully, this will be fixed. There’s also no option to open the window for some reason — it has a strange four-layer window system, which is… okay. The tap water is quite hard, but as far as I understand, that’s common across most of Seoul. The room keys don’t look very secure, and the key fob is huge — about the size and weight of a solid, heavy iPhone. It’s easier to leave the key at reception when you go out and pick it up again when you return. Another downside is the poor sound insulation from the corridor. When the Korean and Russian cleaning staff start chatting in the morning, it works better than any alarm clock. In some places, you can see signs of the hotel’s “age” and wear over time, but it’s not too serious. On the plus side, in addition to the usual amenities like toothbrushes and basic hygiene kits, each room has large bottles of body lotion, cream, and something else I didn’t even have time to figure out. That’s a definite bonus. Next, despite the inability to open the window, the rooms aren’t stuffy at all — on the contrary, they’re comfortably warm. There’s also heated flooring. All the staff are pleasant, friendly Koreans who are always willing to help if needed. A solid 4 out of 5.

HHan Hyo SangThe Moment i arrived at the Hotel, the staff was helpful, friendly and can speak in english so well. The hotel is in dongmyo area. just 5mins walk to train station. 3mins walk to Dongmyo Flea Market (So many choices at the CHEAPEST price, if you are lucky, you gonna find Hidden Gems 🤩). Restaurant is everywhere nearby, Banks, Money changer…just name it..its all nearby the hotel. is it safe to stay at the Hotel? YES, it safe, clean and just 1 mins walk to 24 convenience store. This is my review as solo traveler.

GGuest UserIt was nice that they let us take one drink per person, and the room was spacious and clean, which was nice😍 The staff were all very friendly! It was such a great experience that my Japanese friend said he wanted to stay here again when he comes to Korea❤️ I'm glad you made good memories.

TTianyixiaonvhaiHonestly, the location was a bit hard to find! It's tucked away deep inside, and the pictures on Trip.com weren't very accurate. I had to rely on asking people for directions and guesswork! This place seems to only accommodate female guests, and I'm a solo female traveler visiting Seoul for the first time! The biggest plus is its excellent location, right next to the dermatology clinic I visited. The downsides are poor ventilation and the front desk staff's mediocre attitude, plus they require a deposit. The front desk is quite far from the rooms, and check-in is entirely by a key code. If you lose the paper with the code, you're out of luck!

GGuest UserIt felt pretty good, though I might get woken up by roommates at night or in the morning. It's fine for a short stay, but for a longer trip, I'd look for a better place. The location is good, close to the road and easy to find.

MMr.Xin$Great value for money, overall highly recommended. The room was a bit small, but the price was good, and it's only a few hundred meters from Myeongdong. Breakfast included milk, instant noodles, bread, and more, which you could prepare yourself.

Mmoo257It's only two minutes' walk from the nearest station and has excellent access.
There is a convenience store right next to the hotel, and there are 24-hour restaurants nearby, so it's convenient.
A refrigerator, dryer, and smartphone charger are provided in the room.(i-phone&type-c only)
If there is no staff at the front desk when you check in, you will need to obtain your room number using sns.
As others have written, the cleaning situation leaves room for improvement.
However, you will be able to stay at a very reasonable price, so I think it would be a good idea to bring slippers and other things to make up for the parts of the floor that are not well cleaned.
