The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Myeongdong, just steps away from the vibrant shopping area and the metro station. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile. However, the rooms, while cozy and equipped with tea facilities, could be a tad bit larger. The dining experience offers great coffee but could see improvements in pricing when booking directly with the hotel.

The hotel offers spacious and very comfortable rooms that are surprisingly quiet. However, the lighting could be warmer and brighter throughout the room. The staff is fluent in English, very friendly, and extremely helpful both during check-in and after check-out. The location is strategic, with a vibrant evening street festival nearby and convenient access to restaurants, vendors, and public transport. The dining experience serves delicious, fresh food but is not extravagant. The hotel facilities are well-maintained.

My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms, although a bit on the tiny side, were comfortable and clean, large enough to accommodate my family of two children and three suitcases. The service, especially after 11 pm, was friendly, accommodating, and the staff conversed well in English. The location of the hotel was superb, just a 3-minute walk to the nearest Station “Euljiro 1-ga,” offering easy access to various Seoul attractions. The dining options were decent, with a variety of choices including Korean food items, and a great coffee machine for daily cappuccinos. The facilities met my needs adequately, contributing to a satisfactory stay overall.
