An OK place that is hidden away.
It is a bit hidden down an alley. By current landmarks, look at the 7/11 and go left until you see and opening and walk down. On discount, it is a great place given location to Insadong, embassies, museums, and palace. The information here says 24 hour front desk, but it's my understanding that there is no one there between 1-8 AM. I've stayed in better places, but I've also stayed in far worse.

Decent clean room
Hotel was decent. More a guesthouse than hotel. Double room is tight for 2 people. Hot water is good. Needed a room which had 24-hour check-in as we would only arrive in the city around 2am. Taxi drivers can’t read English - so he could call the hotel to ask for directions. It is a bright yellow hotel in an alley, refer to another review’s direction.

Other hotel in the chain good, but this one bad
The main problem was with the temperature, it was already freezing but the room floor was heated but there was no circulation. Woke up 2-3 times as I couldn’t breathe! They should have turned down the heater...

Well the only good thing about this hotel is it's location. It's super close to insadong and tapgol park which is about a minute or 2 of walking. It's also close to 2 train stations name jonggak and jongno-3-ga stations. It's also close to the airport bus stop and local city bus stop so getting around seoul is easy and there's also the nami island tour bus beside tapgol park. There are many shops around the hotel. 7-11 is just around the corner, cat cafe, the 24 hour noodle shop, kfc, starbucks just to name a few. It's also close to the youth avenue which is a street lined with bars, restos, and shops which closes relatively late. The room was ok since it's still relatively newly renovated but it's not that clean. There were hairs on the bed and i think they threw hairs on the toilet bowl which they forgot to flush when they cleaned the room before we arrived. The room was small but manageable. The bed has spring mattress so it's hard to sleep coz the spring will poke your back and the mattress was hard. Our room wasn't cleaned the entire time we stayed (5days) eventhough i asked for room cleaning. Having big suitcases and going up 4 flights of stairs was also a hassle since they will not help you carry your baggage to your room. The staff speak little english so another problem. Walls were thin so you can hear people from outside or from the other room. But overall you get what you pay for.

Great location, not too expensive
Great Location, many sightseeing or shopping area in walking distance. Many food stalls and restaurant are near by. The room is small, warm interior design. Spring bed is old and uncomfortable. It was hard to goto sleep for me. Generally it was quite quiet during the stats, just one night there are few crazy drunk Korean screamed and talk loudly around 2am at night.

It is okay for 1 or 2 day stay. The room and the bathroom are not big, but if you are going to just sleep and be out all day it is okay
