    If you book the triple room, then it is a squeeze. No room to really move or sit down at the table provided. Bathrooms are small but functional and clean.

    Excellent location in Myeongdong, within minutes you can reach the food market, shops and subway. Hotel staff were helpful and spoken good english. Breakfast was standard for a hotel of this class.

    Air conditioning was central so inside the room sometimes was very hot. Should have some place to hang clothes in toilet. Little hard to find, because the entrance is a lateral area and has other things in the building. Should have a picture of the entrance then would be easier to identify.

    Great location Nice room

    Fantastic location a few steps from the heart of Myeongdong in Seoul. You won't be disappointed.

    The only complaints I have is that our door was very difficult to open. We had to push and pull and push a couple of times to get in the room. And the bathroom is very small. You almost fall into the shower when walking into the bathroom.

    The location is outstanding. I've tried four different hotels in the area and this one is the best. Metro stations are nearby to take you anywhere around Seoul. You can walk out of the hotel and into the heart of Myeongdong with its vibrant night life, street food, shopping, and entertainment. With all the fantastic street food don't miss the Michelin soup shop named Myeongdong Kyoja for lunch, and an evening on "chicken street" enjoying Korean fried chicken and beer / soju from any one of 7-8 locations side-by-side. Staff was fantastic, rooms quiet and clean, and breakfast had a number of lovely options with the dining room on the 19th floor overlooking Seoul and the Tower. We loved staying here.

    There are no counter space or shelves to put toiletries for couples , pillows are so heavy, and mattress foam are sloping on one side, and bed is only queen size.

    Ibis is located in Myeongdong and it is where all the activities are going on and stores and street markets are going on .

    The staff was very friendly and helpful, and gave us a map of the city, since Korea does not use Google maps. They also had a luggage storage service, which we used since we arrived before check-in time. The location is very convenient to a main shopping street with a night market, and also within 30 min walk to some of the palaces and large fish market. Also very convenient that there is an airport shuttle bus stop right outside the hotel.

    It was too warm, as the A/C Is turned off during winter. Someone helped me open the window, but the person cleaning room, closed it, so it was hot again. The switch is near the ceiling, making it difficult for elderly to reach.

    The pillows seemed to be feather, which caused a minor skin reaction while I slept. The elevator kept giving a shock every-time I tried to press a button.

    The room was nice and spacious. The water pressure was good.

    The cleaning staff can do a better job cleaning the bathroom. It wasn't bad, but I noticed the floor wasn't properly cleaned during my stay.

    The hotel's staff was very helpful and nice. The hotel is located close to the main tourist places in Seoul. I will definitely stay at this hotel on my next visit to Seoul.
