The room was very clean, they cleaned every day and changed the towells. The staff was very friendly and helpful! The location of the hotel is amaizing too, near two metrostations and with a buss stop right infront of the entrance. The neighbourhood is very calm and quite. Their facilities have washing machines, a fitness and a room with a microwave.

Fabulous location just the best. Right in the middle of Myendong but the hotel was so quiet. The staff were exceptional. The bed was super comfortable. Loved the free minibar and pod coffee machine. The breakfasts were super delicious. Loved our stay. It was our haven after a busy day exploring Seoul. Definitely return.

The traditional Korean-style house has been remodeled with a modern touch, creating a charming and clean space. The place is newly opened, so everything is spotless. The bedding was particularly soft and comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep, and the dormitory beds were more spacious than usual. Its close proximity to Myeongdong Station made it easy to explore different neighborhoods, and it was also conveniently located near the night market. I would definitely love to stay here again on my next trip!

    It was a very good deal for a budget traveller considering the location, it's perfect and easy access to almost everywhere and everything. For an Asian like me, the room's size was just enough. Special thanks to the staff who let me checked in early coz I wasn't feeling well. Will stay here again if I'm traveling solo to Seoul again. :)

    Money for value a great deal. Location is hard to beat as it's in Myeongdong's heart and connects to many tourist sights even in walking distance, has plenty of bus and metro connection in proximity too. A great start into Seoul on a budget. It was clean and tidy. Free drinking water in the kitchen and other amenities.

    This is a very good budget place. It is well managed, spotlessly clean, excellent location, nice staff. The accommodation style is ‘goshiwon’ - very basic and cheap. So you get what you pay for.
