The hotel rooms are small but comfortable, very clean, and come with a generous array of complimentary toiletries. The service is excellent and very helpful with directions, despite occasional misunderstandings. The location is extremely walkable with easy access to major sites in Seoul, though situated in a less busy alleyway. The dining experience offers good quality food, but it can be repetitive when staying for several days. The facilities are well-kept and satisfactory overall.

I couldn't have asked for a more comfortable stay at this hotel! The rooms were perfect for spreading out my things, even though the ventilation wasn't great. The service was top-notch, with the staff being extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The location was ideal, surrounded by great eateries and near major sites in Seoul. Dining options were decent with plenty of choices. However, the backstreets with shops provided a unique setting but may not be for everyone.

The hotel is tucked away in a small alley, making it a bit challenging to find, but it's conveniently close to the subway and tourist attractions. The service here is exceptional, with multilingual staff going above and beyond to assist guests. The dining experience is delightful with a generous and high-quality selection of dishes. However, the seedy surroundings with 'love hotels' nearby might not appeal to all guests.
