Incredible stay! Recommend highly!

Amazing stay. Incredible value. We had a 2 BR which was fully equipped. So spacious we felt we could stay there-wished we could stay there for months. Breakfast was included in our package and was great. There is a small but very nice playroom for kids! And the fitness center looked clean and bright and had all kinda of machines though we didn’t use it. Our room happened to have an absolutely incredible view. The location was perfect to see the places, walk two blocks (if that) to Insadong. We will definitely stay here if we visit Seoul again!

The proximity to major landmarks was amazing and space and amenities in the hotel were great. The overall cleanliness could be improved, like the children’s play area downstairs was very dusty and in our hotel room, some areas were dusty and worn. But overall, it was a great space for our family with 2 young children to spread out and walk around everywhere.

This apartment hotel is very clean and spacious. I especially like the washer and dryer, allowing my family to wash the new clothes immediately before wearing them the next day. The breakfast is very good. It is also close to a subway station.
