The hotel felt more like a serviced apartment with a spacious room that had a big refrigerator, a small kitchen, microwave oven, hot kettle, and a dining table, which I found really nice. However, there was a lingering smell of cigarette smoke that was a bit off-putting.

The hotel had rooms equipped with kitchens, which was a great help considering we were not used to cooler temperatures coming from a humid and tropical location like Malaysia. However, we had to move rooms at 2 am, which was a bit inconvenient.

The hotel is set on the edge of Myeongdong, offering a strategic location just a 10-minute walk to the bustling area. The rooms are spacious, although some show signs of aging with old furniture. The service is top-notch, with super friendly and accommodating staff ready to assist, even upgrading us to a 2-bedroom suite at no extra cost. The dining experience may not be the best value for money, serving repetitive breakfast options. Despite the slight inconvenience of having to navigate alleyways or a hill to reach the front door, the location provides a good base for exploring Myeongdong.

The service was friendly and helpful, although dry cleaning and laundry are available for an additional charge. The location is convenient, especially for accessing the metro station.

The hotel is perfectly situated near various attractions in Korea, making it super convenient for exploring. The rooms were not only spacious with all necessary facilities, but also had a room heater that was a lifesaver for us coming from humid Malaysia. The staff was incredibly accommodating, even upgrading us to a 2-bedroom suite at no extra cost. On the downside, the uphill walk to the front entrance was a bit tiring, but the overall quality and service made up for it.
