Great hotel in an amazing area!

If you are a young solo traveler, this place will suit your needs. The full size bed room is not too small, not too big. Just the perfect amount of space to not feel so claustrophobic. Has air conditioning, good wifi, heated floors, and was quiet overall. If you leave your window open in the morning, you might hear a lot of rustling and clanking of people outside. If I was staying in Ikseon-dong again, I would book this place. Amazing location.

The location was smack in insadong so it made it really easy to walk around the winding hip alleys of restaurants and shops. The room is really tiny so I wouldn’t recommend it for two friends. Good for solo travelers or a couple. But still pretty tight for two people. Cleanliness is good and free breakfast was a nice option.

Hotel was located in a very convenient area and a good value for price. check in was done completely virtually so I did not see a member of staff at any point. Room was small - almost no room to open my suitcase, but bed was comfortable.

Nice Hotel for a couple of days. Tiny bathroom and not much space in the room for four people but ok for 2-3 nights. Very helpful and kind personel and right in the middle of vibrant Insa-dong.

My sister and I recently stayed at Hotel Dada and had a wonderful experience. The location is absolutely excellent—close to top attractions, restaurants, and public transportation. It made getting around super convenient. What really stood out beyond the location was the friendly and professional staff. Everyone we encountered was welcoming and eager to help, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Another great perk was the complimentary breakfast, which was a perfect way to start the day. Overall, a great value for the service. We’d definitely stay here again!

휴~~~

문을 열자 닭장 같은 방에 침대. 한사람 걸어다니기도 벅찬 공간이라 케리어는 풀 공간이 없음. 저렴하면 그런 이유가 있는 법... 그래도 어제 비슷한 가격에 좋은 숙소에서 지낸거에 비하면 좀 너무한듯함. 그러나 아침은 서양식으로 비교적괜찮음
