The hotel is conveniently located among a bunch of shops and restaurants so it was easy for us to explore Hongdae! The room is on the smaller end but still felt spacious and was well kept.

It is a clean hotel located in a very convenient location. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was kinda small, nothing fancy but there was enough room for two people and clean. Also, I like the fact that the floor was not a carpet. Locations wise, it cannot get any better than this hotel....busy hongdae street right outside the hotel entrance and a convenience store right near the entrance... yet there was no louse noise at night to disturb our sleep. I highly recommnend this place

The front office staff was awesome. Met few of them at different timings and all were very helpful and friendly. Room was nice with a small triangular balcony. Love the pillow and blanket! Super comfy. Hotel is in the midst of Hongdae which plenty of shops and eateries. The only downside is probably the bathroom which i find abit inconvenience to have your basin, flask, coffee all in 1 area. Otherwise, all good.

This hotel is such a perfect spot and convenient. The train station felt like a 3 to 5 min walk. The places to shop and eat is just right out of the hotel and very close. I would stay here again if I come back. I like that it also has a currency exchange when needed in the hotel and there is also a weighing scale by the lobby to check for your luggages. Our flight was going to be later that night and I like that you can leave your luggages for free as well while you take time to still explore around instead of doing luggage lockers. The staff are very hospitable and helpful when you need assistance. I highly recommend this place.
