Easy access to downtown. If you want a western vibe, dont stay here, otherwise this place is great. Close to everything but away from noise. The staff is super friendly and the hotel.is surrounded by pure korean lige and food. ##### Manuel Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shanequa 27 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel is tucked away so it might be easily overlooked but I’m glad I gave it a try. The May is best for solo or independent travelers. I’ve found once you check in you are basically encouraged to explore the small but satisfying premises on your own. I requested a room on the higher floors because you will literally be facing a wall since the alleyway is packed with other boutique hotels. Don’t let that discourage you. The rooms are a great size, the bathtub is a nice addition and the included breakfast was satisfying. The area is very lively. Cool for a weekend getaway! ##### Shanequa Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### jenn 18 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was located in a convenient area and the staff were very friendly ##### jenn Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James 12 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay in central Seoul with an amazing staff Short stay in Seoul.

Pros: -enough space for us to open 2 of our carry on luggages. -separate shower and toilet (very important for us when looking for hotel to book) -relatively quiet. -mattress, pillows, comforter are all super comfortable!! Even more comfortable than our home fr. The mattress was heaven for us (we like firm and my hubby doesn’t sink in it unlike our bed at home lol😂) -so many local eateries nearby which we really -quick bus ride to Myeong-dong, though you can walk it if you wanted to. We chose to take bus as we’re pacing ourselves with so much walking over the course of 2.5wks lol -washroom -robes -vibrating sound of footsteps ##### Leanna Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Howard 26 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Modern, quiet hotel despite being in a vibrant area.
