The hotel is very nice, the location is very convenient which is close to the metro station, the amenities are good. One big highlight of our stay was the restaurant. The service at the restaurant was great. The restaurant was always clean, and the lady manager was very kind and welcoming us every day. Big thanks to her!!!!! I absolutely recommend this hotel and will stay again.
Very good hotel. I loved the location as it allowed me to explore the neighborhood this hotel was in which was very cool and where the locals are. Very close to subway and bus stations and walkable to other areas.
Mayplace Seoul-Conveniently located and great valu
Very conveniently located hotel with all necessary services provided. Breakfast was amazing, short walk from the palaces, daily room cleaning was done, laundry in the basement was convenient to use. Only improvement can be done for the power outlets as they seemed loose and not fitting the adapters well but we found a way to work with those.
Friendly and efficient staff and service. Clean, well equipped and spacious room. Great location close to royal palace and lively University neighbourhood. Good food options nearby. No metro station nearby but many buses option to go everywhere.

Dinner too reserve on the day of the meal and even then it’s not sure if the restaurant is open.
Breakfast is limited for Western custom (mainly rice etc)
If you want a taxi you need the Uber/Kakao app. Reception doesn’t call a taxi for you.
Good room with facilities. No unnecessary disposal items (toothbrush etc) 👍👍

The hotel is near bus stops and is convenient to get to attractions in Seoul. Nearest bus stops are few minutes walk away. The nearest subway station is about 15min walk.
We were a bit disappointed about our corner suite. The furniture in the living space looks cheap, especially the "sofa". Its backrest isn't fixed and wouldn't support one's back. It would slide back and fall down.
Whoever designed the bathroom should be fired. The bathtub sits on top of granite enclosure. So when one takes a shower, the water would splatter on the granite enclosure and would eventually flow to the floor. There is a drain on the floor; so, the design was intentionally! The problem is the water would get on the bathroom door before getting to the floor. The door shows sign of water damage, and the bathroom would smell moldy. The floor around the bathtub would be wet after a shower.
The staff at the hotel, especially the front desk, is really nice and helpful.
Easy check in, and very friendly staff.
Room was a good size, but it reeked of cigarettes despite being a non smoking room - especially the bathroom. Weirdly no hooks in the bathroom - or anywhere else - to hang up your wet towel after a shower. No iron in the room, and no option to have one delivered - they told us to go down to a small room on a different floor to do our ironing. Super annoying.
Hotel itself was clean, and bed was big and comfortable. It’s not in the best location though. We ended up taking Ubers or buses everywhere. An okay experience.
Room was clean and had everything I needed including safety deposit box. Staff spoke English well and were very helpful. Hotel is in a quiet location it close to mall amenities - Ali very close to Airport bus 6011
