8.0 Review - Jin 21-06-2025

Review: The hotel is not bad. But quite pricey for a 3 stars hotel. However, even though there a do not disturb optional in the room but was told by the staff that they will be cleaning everyday

9.2 Affordable Hotel, Near to Dongmyo Flea Market - rizka 09-06-2025

Review: I stayed 2 nights here and feel the hotel is worth the value. It’s very near to dongmyo, which is very different area compare to hongdae, myeongdong and others can say very localized. The Subway is also in green line so close to seongsu, hongdae and more cool places.

8.4 Budget - jabnee 18-05-2025

Review: Small but clean. Walking distance to the bus station.

10.0 Exceptional - Maria 16-05-2025

Review: Its really nice and cozy

10.0 Very friendly staff and spacious room! - Nisriina 13-05-2025

Review: The staff is very friendly and help us navigate checked in. When I enter the room I was so surprised how spacious the room is. The location of this hotel also very strategic

7.0 Very good - Sheena 27-04-2025

Positive points: The hotel was nice and clean overall. We booked a room for two, and it was spacious enough for me and my friend to feel comfortable. The hotel was also just a few minutes' walk from the station, which was convenient during the day. It has a near 711 and GS25 convenience store too.

Negative points: I do think the room could use some improvements — a few areas were a bit worn, with some stains and minor damages that made it feel less clean than expected. At night, the quiet, dark neighborhood felt a bit scary.

10.0 what a nice hotel - Amnan 09-05-2025

Review: everything perfect. Thank you for the room upgrade. will surely come back here again

1.0 I would never choose this hotel again. Never - Roza 01-01-2024

Positive points: NO GOOD POINTS AT ALL !!! There are so much better options that I stayed in Seoul for the same price

Negative points: The room was SUPER cold and the floor didn’t warm up the room at all! As a result, after asking 2 times what I am supposed to do with 18 degrees inside in my room in cold winter Seoul, I was given the heater. The towels were dirty and remained the same from the previous travelers. The smell of used towels and the make up traces are the evidences that the hotel workers just didn’t change them. Plus, they even didn’t change a toilet paper roll into a new one. It was just a leftover :) A small leftover that is supposed to be used for 3 days

6.8 Good - Hejie 08-05-2025

Review: 酒店入住时间很晚,卫生条件欠佳,退房后最多只能寄存行李六小时,导致多花费了近100人民币在地铁站中寄存行李,工作人员的态度也不好,几乎是本次韩国旅行中的唯一糟心点

9.0 It was amazing and will go back if I get the chance. - Ana 19-09-2023

Positive points: The Hotel is very good, is located in Dongmyo, its a very peaceful and chill place. They cleaned my room everyday, bed was super comfortable, the bathroom was my favorite part and refilled the mini fridge. All the pictures are accurate and the staff was very helpful when needed. The nearest train station is just 3 mins walk and the bus station is 1min away. There's also a lot of cafes and restaurants near and 3 conveniences stores on the same street. I 100% recommend the place if you are looking for a nice and affordable hotel.

8.8 Nice hotel and great location - Aie 05-05-2025

Review: Location is the main point, room was big enough to open 2 big luggage. Staff when we were check in very friendly. nnNear to Dongmyo station and bus stop just around the corner. Direct accsess for airport limousine bus too.

8.0 Cute room with super comfy bed. Close to metro. - Colette 17-08-2023

Positive points: Cute room with a balcony. Super comfy bed. Huge tub with jets. Room made up every day. Very close to the metro, about 2 blocks. Small refrigerator and excellent air conditioning. Very friendly staff, not strong English but very proficient with a translator app.

Negative points: Very little storage space. A small rack with 3 hangers and one drawer. There was water damage on the ceiling and it smelled musty when the air conditioner was off. There was only one key which was a challenge when my son and I ventured off separately, especially because you need to have the key in the room to turn on the lights.
