A clean and comfortable stay
Pros:

A clean and comfortable stay. The staff were attentive and helpful. Having a washer and dryer in the room was convenient. The kitchen facilities allowed us to have breakfast comfortably. The hotel's location is close to Myeongdong center, within a short walking distance.

Cons:

The hotel didn't have many facilities, but it wasn't something to complain about too much.

Pros:

Very spacious for family. Rooms were very comfortable. Location was ideal. Close to shopping and public transport. We like to cook our own food, so it was nice that there was a rice cooker available and fresh bottles of water provided each day.

Cons:

Kitchen was outdated. The stove used gas, which sometimes took time to light up. Also, dangerous if you have children near-by so one must be cautious. Utensils for cooking were limited. Bathrooms were clean but also a bit outdated.

Totally worth it
Pros:

The location was perfect and was close to the metro. Spacious rooms. Great value for money. The check in was easy. Every day room cleaning. They gave us 2 free water bottles every day.

Cons:

The shower door didn’t close properly also the water pressure was really low. The lobby smelled weirdly. Also it was a bit hard for us to recycle properly as tourists

good location, but would not stay again
Pros:

good location, walking distance to myeongdong

Cons:

no air conditioning and limited facilities given! note that during transition seasons like late spring, the air conditioning is only switched on in the day time. no air conditioning at night, and ventilation relies solely on opening the windows and the 2 weak fans provided. requested for an extra pillow and fan from the reception since there were 3 people in our room, however, they said that the number of pillows and fans were fixed.
