Situé dans le quartier de Myeongdong, on est juste dans le cœur de ce quartier vivant du marché nocturne.
Je ne peux que recommander
Petit dej inclus
Es war super gelegen, schnelles Checkin/check out. Fussläuffig zur Metro und Shopping. Ich würde sofort wieder kommen. Frühstück dürfte mehr Auswahl haben.

Great area, lots of shops and street food steps from the hotel. It’s easy to get around Seoul from here. Breakfast is a nice inclusion.

The common area may be a bit dated, but the room we stayed in was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this place to families and friends. The staff were incredibly professional and friendly, making our experience even better. We highly encourage everyone to stay here!

Its a small space but that was expected. Its exactly as described. Typical all in one combined shower toilet. Very limited space for opening luggage. I had 2 twin beds but placed one luggage on one bed to be able to function and pack. Location is the best part. Ideally in Myeongdong and right near the station and bus stops. Shopping was easier when I could easily drop off bags then go back to shopping. I booked this place as my departure hotel when I did my shopping haul and it worked out well. Except for the maneuvering luggage to pack in the small room. I cant imagine sharing the space with anyone. It was just me and I barely fit comfortably with two check-in bags and a carry-on.
Provided breakfast was decent, especially its free. Best seaweed soup I've ever had, I went back for seconds!
