This hotel is perfectly situated in Insadong. The lovely shops and cafés are just acriss the stree in Ikseon-dong! The laundry facilities are comfortable and the roof top has a wonderful space to gather. There is a beautiful view of Namsan Tower!

The room air conditioning really affected my stay. The heat wouldn’t go below 23.5°C so I was constantly waking up in a sweat as the air con unit kicked in and stopped all night long. I opened the window to let air in but as I was on the 2nd floor a lot of loud street noise came in. I wouldn’t stay here again slowly for this reason as I didn’t have one good nights sleep during my 5 night stay.

This is the place you want to stay. Spotlessly clean from the rooftop garden down to the laundry room in the basement. The only negative is that many large bus groups are coming and going many times, so the desk and lobby area gets very congested.,

This property is located to many shopping and dining options. The breakfast at this hotel is pretty hearty. The room that we stayed in was comfortable, however there was an issue in the bathroom in terms of the toilet being on a slope and the sink not draining fast. The air was also on central air and to accommodate the guest who were cold we were unable to adjust the temperature of our thermostat. Despite this I'd recommend to stay here at this hotel again because of it's super helpful staff like Robert. Not only did Robert help us with our bags but he also hailed taxis for us when we were leaving for the day and he would also meet us out front when we were returning.

Property was in a great location with a combination of proximity to important sites, good food and transport and nestled in a traditional neighborhood. Very adequately outfitted for the price. A very small suggestion would be to have information handy for the overnight crew on after-hours transportation options.
