Ok for a budget traveler

Bed was extremely hard. I met only one person that spoke limited English the night I checked in. For the remainder of the trip no one spoke English. Could not get assistance with directions or getting local recommendations.

Not great but affordable

The room had non-functioning air conditioning, which for a family of four became very hot. We stayed at the hotel between 14 - 20 June and got a large table fan which made it reasonably comfortable. The standard room was generally very low, but the location was very good for those who want to move around the Insadong area. Close to both the subway and buses, so traveling was simple and easy no matter which direction we went to.

Old looking

Old needs updating. Too expensive and central AC for whole building means your room will be hot at night.

Outdated interior, could do with a refurb. Floors and bathroom not very clean, no housekeeping done in the 2 days we stayed. Staff strict with check in time, we arrived 30 minutes early but had to wait. Location is a huge plus though.

Due to my mum just pass away by cancer two weeks ago, i tried to cancel the reservation as i have to take care my mum's funeral. But the hotel side was refused to cancel my booking and refund. This is unacceptable. Never book this hotel. Everyone have to alert.

The room was very dusty and looked generally unclean, the towels were stained, bathroom door didn't close properly. We asked for room cleaning but the bedsheets were not changed. No toothpaste or toothbrushes (along with other basic amenities) were provided. No natural light. I will not be staying there again.

Disliked: Amenities
Pics online are very outdated. The “family room” is extremely small and was not ideal for more than 2 people. Hotel is older and definitely looks it. Front desk staff was helpful and location isn’t bad. Also, they have a no refund policy and do not budge at all on it. So only book this hotel if you’re ok with disappointment and tight spaces.
