Good Stay Overall, But Not Quite a 4-Star Experience

Liked:The location was excellent, just a 3 to 5-minute walk from the nearest metro stations and around 15 minutes on foot to Myeongdong. It was also situated in a quiet neighbourhood, which we really appreciated after spending the day exploring Seoul’s busy tourist areas. The facilities were modern and in excellent condition. The room and bathroom were spotless, and it was a nice bonus to have both a Samsung AirDresser and a washing machine in the room.

Disliked:For a property marketed as a 4-star hotel, the service was disappointing. The room phone didn’t work, requiring a staff member to come upstairs just to hear our request. When we asked to purchase laundry detergent, we were told to collect it from reception ourselves. I don’t mind paying for the detergent, but I’d expect a 4-star hotel to prioritise convenience by delivering it to the room and charging it to the room bill or collecting payment later. When we tried calling reception again later, the phone still wasn’t working. Unlike the first time, no one came to our room or attempted to assist, leaving us with no way to communicate our request. Overall, the property felt more like a serviced apartment than a full-service 4-star hotel. The room was also much smaller than expected, with barely enough floor space to fully open our suitcases.

Seoul family adventures.

Liked:The hotel room was good and clean. The facilities in the hotel looks good but didn't get a chance to use it. There's a convenience store near receotion area that was very useful.

Disliked:The hotel restaurant does not accommodate à la carte orders for breakfast. It's either a full buffet or nothing. I wanted to order just a coffee but had to go outside.

Very comfortable and spacious, accessible to food areas within walkable distance.

Liked:Walkable distance to Gwangjang Market, surrounding area was quiet and not busy compared to Myeongdong since hotel is located in Euljiro, slightly outside of the busy Myeongdong streets. We arrived late close to midnight and there were still receptionists available to do check-in. Alternatively, there were also machines for check-in/check-out, which was all very easy to use and the process was extremely smoothly. Lobby area had a very welcoming vibe even though we did not spend too much time there. Hotel was located on the 2nd floor, there were escalators and lifts available to get up there, and there was also 2 convenience stores, 1 of them was right outside the 2nd level of the hotel (sheltered), and the other one was across the small road. There was also a cafe downstairs if people needed a quick coffee/tea fix in the morning. The room we booked was spacious, suitable for 4 people. There was a living room area, tall table dining area, 1 main room and 1 makeshift room. There were also stoves, washing machine & dryer and a clothing sterilizer available. Indoor slippers were provided too. Shower has strong water pressure and hair dryer has strong power too. The hotel also provides a paid self-locker service which we utilized after out check-out for the whole day, which was priced reasonably to me. If i remember correctly, the first 4 hours was 5,000won and subsequent 2-hours were 3,000won each. I think it was free for public as well. Overall, I would definitely come back again with my family and recommend to everyone.

Disliked:I wish the top-up of complimentary water was automatic everyday instead of us having to request from receptionist, even on days where we had our rooms made. Aircon setting was slightly weird to use, my friend said that it turned off in the middle of the night but there was no timer set (aircon control only had 2 buttons and none of it had timer settings). Hotel room drawers were wooden and had a pungent smell (I believe it was Formaldehyde as the hotel room seems quite new), and it was quite unpleasant when we opened the drawers for utensils/cups, so we avoided doing that afterwards. Storage for luggage is not complimentary unlike most hotels so that was unfortunate (the paid self-locker service was great and easy to use though). Just for everyone's info: The locker storage had bottom and top storages, and I was quite unlucky that most bottom levels were used up so I had to choose a top level, which meant that I had to lift my luggage up above my head to store the luggage. This might be challenging for people who don't have the strength/ ability to do this.
