Over all great time close to the most beautiful places we needed to visit
Boutique Hotel in midst of Myeondong while still being quiet enough at night. Room was quite small, but clean. Staff was nice, all administrative topics where handled very professionally.
Place was clean and in a very good location (close to myeongdong station 9 which seems to be the pickup point for alot of tours). Staff were really nice! I had troubles booking transport between busan -> seoul and they were happy to help out.
The hotel location is very convenient to Myeong-dong walking street. Other than that, the hotel is fairly average and the room is fairly small for a family of 4.
GREAT location. The rooms are a little bit small but I think everything in Korea is a little small. Very clean and had all the amenities. Comfortable beds and nice bathroom. Would 10/10 stay here again.
I stayed at the hotel for one night. The location was very convenient, with many dining options and shopping available. The room was spacious; however, the interior was outdated, and there was a strong smell when I entered the room.
The hotel is walking distance from Myeongdong station which makes it easy to get to from the airport. It is also within close proximity to many of the shops and street market. The staff are very friendly and helpful, especially Mr Jung.
Excellent location in Myeongdong - quiet. Shopping, Dining, Subway, Catholic Church are close by. Check in of one room was delayed though - 30 minutes. But that sane room was allowed late check out for a fee.
Staff have good communication skill. Great location. However temperature of the bathing water was not hot enough on the 1st night. It became better on the 2nd night.

Very convenient location, in the middle of Myeong-dong market, shopping/restaurants are everywhere outside the hotel. 5mn walk to Myeong-dong station.
Courteous and very friendly staff!
Premium bed pillows and mattress!
Only one enhancement request: add USB plugs in the room
We were 2 adults and 2 children. It might be a bit too small for 4 people and luggage, but that's fine.
The location was perfect, superclose to the metro. Well communicated.

The hotel is located at the end of Myeongdong. It is quiet, run down and quite noisy during the mid night whereby can hear the people talking around and rubbish truck. The restaurant opposite the hotel is open till late mid-nite, kind of noisy and the spot light directly shine in the hotel room. I will not recommend this hotel. There are many other hotel surrounded the MD street.
We used to stay there pre-Covid and decided to book back here for its convenient location and quiet end of Myeongdong.
Very sad to see that they no longer serve breakfast and beverage like they used to. Reception is also often only 1 staff manning.
I chose the hotel due to its location and proximity to public transportation and sites of interest. That is exactly what I got. The room on arrival was clean and provided all basic essentials. Lobby staff were friendly and helpful. Minor complaint, the pressure of the shower was slow flowing and in some areas of the hotel there is a smell that smells like bad sewage issues. This might well be the case as we were advised not to throw toilet paper into the toilet bowl and into the bin provided.
