    tiny room
    limited facilities

    The location is perfect! Just a short walk brings you to Myeongdong's bustling shopping streets and delicious food markets. My room was cozy and extremely clean, allowing just enough space for my suitcase and shopping bags. I really appreciated the windows that opened for fresh air—it made a difference. Overall, it was a very pleasant place for a solo traveler like me who wanted to explore the nearby attractions like the Namsangol Hanok Village.

    amenity highlight
    shared spaces
    noise disturbance

    well-equipped kitchen, laundry room, disposable slippers

    The shared spaces could use a bit more attention—how about a deep clean and some updated appliances? Also, a better system for quiet hours could help. the noise from other rooms was distracting at night!!!

    flood zone
    lack of privacy

    was hoping for a luxe experience, but the shower was a literal flood zone. oh, and the absolute lack of privacy—heard every knock and doorbell like it was in my room. would have appreciated a free upgrade for all this inconveniance but was treated like everyone else. disappointing to say the least, almost gave a good review, but couldn’t.

    can just recommend for a short stayover

    Comfortable room, convenient location, the accommodation is just a short walk from the subway station and features a shared kitchen and laundry facilities that enhance the overall experience.

    Can’t fault the property in any way.

    can't wait to come back.

    I had a Single Room, super comfy with air conditioning, a private bathroom, and a flat-screen TV. The lift made it easy. There were free toiletries, a hairdryer, and even a refrigerator. Really liked the shared kitchen and laundry too. The location's just a short walk from everything, which was awesome!

    great amenities

    This place suits me perfectly, providing wi-fi, luggage storage, and a shared kitchen. The staff helped me with bug spray on my first stay, which I appreciated. Don't miss the free laundry! I'm coming back for a weekend.

    comfy room
    private bathroom
    great location
    loud noise
    shower flooding

    I stayed in a Single Room for 3 nights. It was comfy with air conditioning and a private bathroom, which was nice. The location was on point, close to the subway and lots of shopping options. However, the noise from a nearby photo booth store was pretty distracting at night, so that was a bummer. Also, the shower could use some work. it had a tendency to flood the bathroom a bit. Otherwise, the place felt cozy and well-organized!

    accommodating staff
    shared kitchen

    This place was a great match for spending the night in Seoul at excellent value for money. I really appreciated the accommodating staff who drove me to a nearby subway station when I needed it. If you like to cook, make sure to take advantage of the well-equipped shared kitchen.
