Location is great
The hotel staff were nice and they spoke english. A lot of the ammenities weren't the way the were described in the website listing. Shower wasn't separate, curtains weren't blackout, bed wasn't a king, parking wasn't included, tv wasn't 54 inches, no picnic package with sandwiches. Other things i didn't care for include: bath towels were small and a bit rough, paint was peeling off the walls at the bottom, carpet worn out, light in the bathroom was too low. The great thing is this hotel is on the biggest shopping street in Seoul. Before covid, you could step outside and immediately be met with street food and other vendors. Location on Myeongdong gil is amazing. For me it makes up for the other stuff.
