The room was spacious and clean. Since I went during the winter time, heater was available for use in room if needed. Electric heating blanket was also provided for customers to use to keep the bed warm. There are many restaurants and cafes nearby and the hotel is close to subway stations with 3-10 min walking distance to line 5 and 3.

The room was generally filthy. I believe it is an hourly motel masked as a 3 star hotel. The bed gave me rashes (10 days and counting) and the room was so dusty it was absolutely disgusting.
2 PCs on desk in the room, just next to bed. ALL COVERED IN DUST.

The room was small, but neat and clean. The staff was very helpful fixing a few minor problems in the room. Great location in the middle of all the action in Insadong. Our room had a mini-fridge, but no microwave - however one was available in the lobby. The bed was unusually firm - if staying more than a day or two, consider bringing a thin mattress pad. The hotel-provided water and small treats were nice.

Basic but comfortable and clean. Very close to a tube station with easy connections to the rest of the city. Room was a bit dated but did a great job for a two night stay. They provide free snacks, bottled water and soft drinks both in the room and at the reception. Great value for money if you don’t have super high expectations.

I changed to this property after my original accommodation in Hongdae was so grim I didnt want to stay there. I managed to book the last room in the property and I am so glad i made the change. My room had a shower, toilet and seperate whirl bath (although the bubbles didnt work) and was spacious and clean. Staff cleaned the room daily, no matter what time you left, and the location was absolutely perfect for getting to both the nearby subway and walking to local sites of interest. The bed was very firm, but actually just what was needed after long days out.

I would consider it a hotel for honeymooners, very nice. The bed and bath were big but I didnt like the two computers w/stands. It took up to much space, limiting the room.
