Amazing stay, would definitely stay again.
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Simple Stay Seoul. The staff were amazing and genuinely helpful throughout our visit. The gentleman working in the morning and the evening staff member who wears glasses were especially lovely and made us feel very welcome.

The location is incredibly convenient, right in the middle of a lively area with convenience stores nearby, and Olive Young is also just a short walk away. It made getting around Seoul very easy.

The hotel itself is simple and basic, so don't expect anything overly fancy, but it has everything you need for a comfortable stay and definitely does not disappoint. We had absolutely no complaints.

We really enjoyed staying here and would happily stay again on our next trip to Seoul. Highly recommended if you're looking for a comfortable, friendly, and conveniently located place to stay!

Cons:

No complaints of any sort.

Great location, friendly staff
Pros:

Great location, close to a few metro lines. Good night life around. This hotel will keep your luggage for a few days ( for a fee) if you are travelling around. Mason on the reception was extremely helpful at all times.

Cons:

Didn’t like the bath taking up so much space in the bedroom. Smaller bath be better with a larger shower area.

Agradable
Pros:

La ubicación está muy bien. El desayuno no estaba mal lo suficiente para poder desayunar. Faltaba algo de fruta. Había café, té, jamon y queso, pan para tostadas, salchichas y/o beicon, lechuga, patatas fritas algunos días y yogurt.

Cons:

Las habitaciones eran algo ruidosas, cuando salía la gente de otras habitaciones se escuchaba todo. Sólo te hacen las camas y te cambian las toallas pero no te limpian el baño por ejemplo y claro si estás 5 días o más puede ser muy incomodo.

Boa localização e hospitalidade
Pros:

Ótima localização, cortesia dos funcionários, cafés manhã simples mas saboroso e saudável.

Cons:

Faltou uma melhor ventilação no quarto, tem apenas uma janela pequena, então fica abafado lá dentro.

Pros:

Hotel tres bien situé dans un quartier vivant avec beaucoup de commerces ou restaurant a proximité.
Malgré cela, l'hôtel est au calme et c'est très agréable de prendre le petit déjeuner dans la véranda au calme.
Le petit déjeuner est un mix d'occidentaux/asiatique et est très bien
Ma chambre était grande, propre, calme. Clim très appréciable et apprécié.
Le personnel était très accueillant et a gardé ma valise lors de la dernière journée.

Cons:

C'est un détail qui ne diminue en rien mon appréciation de l'hôtel mais bien que ma chambre était grande, il n'y tout simplement aucune place pour ouvrir ma valise et la laisser ouverte. Il n'y aucune étagère, penderie pour ranger les vêtements. C'est dommage
Mais c'est un détail. J'ai passé un très bon séjour dans cet hotel.
