What an amazing hotel. As I read the reviews I was nervous about the room size but I can say I was pleasantly surprised and impressed. I had room 802. My sister and I both Americans were very happy with our stay. The room was plenty big and we had 8 suitcases as we had went shopping on our 1 month trip. Air conditioner worked without issue. Nice bedding, nice bathroom, room had refrigerator. So many options for meals. The subway was maybe a 3 minute walk away, the front desk was very helpful with recommendations, taxis and even helped order a pizza for us. I can’t say one negative thing. I highly recommend.

My first time staying in South Korea and this is the hotel I came across! Didn’t know what to expect but our stay had just what we needed. Air conditioning worked great, water ran well in the bathrooms, hotel was clean, bottled water was refilled when we requested room service and room was cleaned nicely. We ubered everywhere and it was easily accessible for them to drop us off near the hotel. It’s a short walk to a lot of wonderful places as well! We enjoyed our stay! (I will add the room was a bit small for the luggage we had but we made it work ◡̈ ) thank you for letting us stay here! - Miya Perdon from Texas!

Boutique hotel in quite ally. Super close to public transportation or walk to almost all touristic attractions, as it’s located in the middle of everything. Modern style easygoing and accessible stuff, clean and super convenient. Rooms are super small though so if you are looking for spending time in your room maybe not right place for you. Otherwise, highly recommending! Would stay here again!

The hotel itself is rather shabby and dark. Our room had almost no natural light. The reception area is cramped and littered with boxes and storage. The rooms are very small and we were stepping over our luggage most of the time. The hotel is always humid for some reason. The staff were old men who were friendly but somewhat intimidating. The location is killer though. You could throw a rock and hit Jongno 3 station. Ikseongdong and Insadong are like 1 minute walk away. You cant beat the location.

My stay at the May Hotel was a good experience. Airport shuttle from Narita (6002) was both convenient and close to Hotel, a 5 minute walk. Close to transportation (buses and subway) but still away from street noise. There are many food choices especially at night. The only negative was the Hotel laundry service....terrible....clothes came back stained, unfolded and all white clothing was gray.
