    I think a previous occupant of my room had smoked and so the room shouldn't really have been used until the lingering smell had been resolved

    Great location, and good value compared to other hotels in the area. The breakfast was pretty good.

    No breakfast for this stay. Based on my experience last year nothing special with the breakfast just a simple one.

    The twin room was very small for 2 people. This seems to be a general problem with twin rooms - but it felt very cramped and with only a narrow window also quite dark. Very disappointing was the fact that the "bar" was in fact a bar/cafe that closed at 4pm. The beautiful picture of the fizz and glasses with the NamSanTower at night that they use to advertise the hotel is a situation that can not be recreated at all - and it was what I was really looking forward to - enjoying an evening drink in my own hotel with a lovely view!!. Given the cramped room with only one chair in front of the "desk" at the cramped narrow window, it would have been nice to have had a seating area somewhere else. Sadly, when the cafe closed at 4pm, the whole area was completely blocked off, so there was no social seating area left at all. So, luckily the location was good, because once we were back in our hotel, the only place we could sit was on our beds. Which is not what I expect in this category of hotel at all. I was travelling with my grown-up daughter, so we didn't want a double. But a spacious twin room would have been nice.

    The location was excellent. Not only does the 6015 airport bus stop right in front of it, but it is perfectly located for so many attractions, many reachable on foot or for those further afield, the subway is a only a few minutes away. It's also only steps away from the busy streets of Myeongdong but with the entrance in a quiet side alley, it really doesn'tfeel like it. The staff were helpful and spoke good English. Had the room been a bit bigger with a proper sized window and the bar, or at least the seating area, have been open in the evening, it really would have been great.

    When I booked the room, it was advertised as having a 'city view.' However, upon arrival, I found that the window only faced the wall of the building across from us. Instead of a 'city view,' it was more like a 'view of the opposite building'.

    Good location of the hotel, cleanliness and cozy atmosphere

    Bathroom was a bit on the smaller side, but not too small for us. My son and I are relatively small anyway, so it didn't bother us too much but I can imagine that for others it might be a difficulty.

    Staff at reception were very welcoming and supportive. They answered every additional question that I had (and I had quite a few!) all in perfect English. The breakfast buffet was very nice considering I was traveling with a picky eater. Plenty of food options for everyone. Rooms were spacious enough considering we're only there to sleep. Bathroom was a bit on the smaller side but the shower was great! Location of the hotel was just perfect!!! Super close to underground shopping center, Myeongdong shopping area as well as plenty of other locations all within walking distance.

    There’s no actual conditioner provided in the shower. (The bottle “Shampoo & Conditioner” really isn’t it. Was a bit disappointed as I kinda expected South Korea to be a bit more detailed in these body care/hair care areas.)

    Perfect location. Walking distance from multiple Metro lines, and many buses. Easily reachable door to door from Incheon Airport by bus (6015). It’s located right next to the Myeongdong night market, so you easily get street food on your way back. Staff were nice and helpful. Great view of the N Seoul Tower & cable car. Pretty quiet, couldn’t hear other people/cars on the streets much.
