    Food was good and I have nothing but such great memories from this trip. I thoroughly enjoyed the hotel, it's nice and the location is particularly good near everything. Location: the venue was near the cable car going up to the tower, close to a night market and Metro station. Tried some takeout specials at Isaac Toast Myeongdong, luckily it was approx 10-15 minutes' walk from the venue. Thanks to the affable staff everything was great.

    Overall it was exceptionally clean and beautiful with a king bed. A work desk, a coffee/tea maker, and a multi-channel television where much appreciated. The people working in the hotel were incredibly nice. Had very central location on top of a slope.

    The hotel is conveniently located near Namsan Park and Myeongdong shopping area. I loved the room with a large flatscreen TV. The hotel's location at a moderate distance from Noon Square was ideal.

    The room was exceptionally clean and warm with smoke detectors for safety measures. The location was good, for example, a main gate was not very far from the hotel.

    Awesome location, close to shopping areas and a beautiful park. Friendly staff who are accommodating and speak English. the room was clean and neat with firm beds and thick blankets. There's a small kitchen and a living room area with a large flatscreen TV. Free wifi and a downstairs lobby for chilling with friends. You can even order in and the in-house smoothie is excellent. the guesthouse is in a fun area with plenty of shops and convenience stores nearby.

    The bed was uncomfortable with noisy springs and thin walls. the bathroom was small and there was no space to stand in the shower.

    The location of the hostel is very convenient, as it is near the famous Myeongdong shopping area and the subway station. You can easily explore the area and have easy access to transportation. the hostel offers a self-service kitchen where you can prepare your own meals, providing a cost-effective option for breakfast.

    The walls of the hostel are not well soundproofed, which can be an issue for light sleepers who are sensitive to noise from neighboring rooms.
