My stay at the hotel was a bit disappointing. The room I got was smaller than expected and on a lower floor. It had a strong cigarette smell despite being a non-smoking room. The floors were uneven, and the furniture seemed worn out. On the bright side, the staff was very helpful and accommodating, especially when I inquired about tours in the area. The location was convenient, with easy access to the subway and just a short walk to the bustling Mangdong shopping area. However, the dining options were limited, catering more towards American and European tastes. The hotel's facility was average with nothing particularly noteworthy.

The hotel offers spacious rooms but lacks soundproofing, providing a good service experience despite some noise disturbances. The central location near Myeongdong and easily accessible shopping areas enhances the overall stay. The dining options are limited, but the facilities meet basic needs.

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Myeong-dong, just steps away from the bustling shopping streets and the metro station. The lack of individual temperature controls can make the rooms too warm, especially during winter months, but you can always turn off the heater. Overall, it offers great value for money for those looking to stay in a prime location in Meungdong with basic room amenities.

The hotel is conveniently located with easy access to public transport. The rooms are clean and well-kept, though there were some issues with temperature control. The service is courteous and accommodating, even for events outside the hotel. The location is excellent, right near a Metro exit and within walking distance to popular areas. The dining options are somewhat limited, but the Mediterranean food is a standout. Overall, a decent stay with some minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers spacious rooms, larger than most in the area, but might need a refresh in terms of decoration. The convenience of having 2 Twin beds is great, although some rearranging may be necessary when packing. The service is friendly and helpful, aiming for a 5-star standard, but families might find it inconvenient to split into separate rooms. The location is strategic, close to Myeongdong center yet quiet, with easy access to transportation options. The dining options could improve in variety after 9 am. Overall, a decent value for the price paid.

The hotel offers a great view of Namsan, but the rooms are small and need improvement in cleanliness. The housekeeping service could be better. However, there were protests during my stay. The location is excellent for exploring Myeongdong and accessing transport links easily. The dining options are pricey, but they cater well to travelers from the US and Europe.
