- Ornella (10/5): - Super appartement et emplacement parfait !
Si c'est votre première fois à Seoul je vous recommande totalement cet emplacement
L'équipe était à l'écoute et très réactiver
Nous avons pu laissé nos bagages à notre arrive et le jour de notre départ dans un espace de stockage sécurisé ! RAS
- Kyong (10/5): -
- ASMAE (8/5): -
- Janita (9/5): Good self-catering setup. Comfortable room - Good location. Fully equipped kitchenette and washer/dryer. The self-checkin was easy and efficient. The absence of staff in the building was a minor concern, though it was possible to call for help if needed.
- Ilkiz (9/5): Very confortable rooms and clean facilities with a great location! - Very clean facilities and also a washing machine available in every room. There are no cleaning services and basically nobody directly at the hotel.
- 蔡宜庭 (9/5): -
- Juratovac (10/5): -
- Viktoriia (7/5): A bit overpriced, convenient location. - Great convenient location - walkable distance to many tourist attractions, popular areas, metro stations.
Friendly supportive staff.
Easy online check in. Small room. We (couple) stayed there for 6 nights and it felt too tight by the end.
They don’t provide cleaning service. You can request it for additional fee or borrow a vacuum cleaner and do it yourself.
Quite a bit overpriced for such facilities and a room size.
- 黃 (8/5): - 地點、房內有洗衣機+烘衣機還有超大的冰箱 浴室淋浴間防水不好,洗澡的時候水會從門縫流出
- Amélie (9/5): -
- Angela (9/5): Good location & if you are looking for a "studio type" no frills-this is the place may be for you - This is not a regular hotel but more like a studio/airbnb. You get what you pay for. Do your research on your preferences. Check in instructions were OK via text/app for luggage and entry/check in. Once you were able to get that information you go to your designated floor/room and enter your code. SKorea lock system is waving/sliding your hand over the pincode key access and then enter your code ;) I liked that it had the amenities of what I needed for my stay. Washer/dryer is a plus (however, no instructions but the staff was quick to communicate the how/to)also has a large fridge/freezer. Efficient sink/stove/microwave. Beds were comfy and area big enough for me/solo. For my stay, 1st time in this type of "hotel" it met what I needed and was in an area that had access to transportation, shops and restaurants. Check in was strict and you needed to pay extra for this. Cleaning even if you are staying more than 5 days you need to pay for this as well. Even though luggage storage is "secure" whoever does have the code can access the luggage room, located at the entrance with no check in desk etc. and hopeful the trust system from visitors is in place. On my floor their was a cleaning cart wedged in the corner outside my door and did not really like to have to see that each day ;) They do not clean your room (unless you pay extra) but you can obtain/swap towels needed. Be aware depending on your neighbors cooking, you may get some food smells. Bottled Water was only provided on first day ;) Visitors really need to do a better job with their garbage disposal for SKorea is strict and clear on the how to but this was generally not followed so the garbage was generally overflowing outside area. This also goes for the smokers who like to sit outside the entrance instead of moving away for people to enter.
- Krzysztof (9/5): - Dobra lokalizacja, wygodne łóżka, pokój dobrego rozmiaru, choć na zdjęciach wydawał się nieco większy Woda z prysznica wylewała się na łazienkę

- Daria (10/5): Perfect new hotel, 100% recommend - This hotel was amazing, it is super new and clean. You have everything you need in the kitchen. Washing machine with built-in dryer. Clean and spacious bathroom. The view is amazing, especially during the sunset. Underneath there is a grill restaurant that is opened during the evening, but there is no smell because the room has built-in ventilation system for the fresh air. Luggage storage worked perfectly with the code. It is also within the walking distance from Myeondong and has very good connection. It is located next to a street with street tents. During a couple of night the ventilation in the building was a bit noisy, but it didn't bother too much.
- Nicol (10/5): Great stay in a convenient location. - Self check in was easy and efficient. Hotel was in a great location, near the subway lines.
- AngelikaJo (9/5): - Bequeme Betten, Bad geräumig für asiatische Verhältnisse. Handtücher und Hygieneartikel standen zur Verfügung und konnten jederzeit selbst getauscht werden.
Lage zentral in Insadong. Nähe zur verschiedenen Restaurants.
Es handelt sich um eine Ferienwohnung, kein klassisches Hotel Wie in vielen asiatischen Hotels kein Schrank und kaum Kleiderbügel oder Haken
- Sandra (8/5): Excellent central location - Great location but still quiet Nothing
- Cally (10/5): Great stay - Great location & as pictured. Nothing.
- Jūlija (10/5): -
- Sussumu (8/5): Location was great, very close to restaurants, subway station and commerce in general. - Location was great, very close to restaurants, subway station and commerce in general. The hotel requires the customer to separate the trash but does not offer the condition for such. I do recommend a triple basket, one for plastic, one for paper and one for general trash to be placed in the room. I missed the toilet sprayer but I understand this is cultural. Lot of people arrive and has not internet therefore did not read the message regarding check-in. An indication plaque at the entrance hall would be helpful.
- Eva (8/5): - Great condition, clean. According pictures. Well furnished same for equipments. Good location as well.
- Győrfi-Kalkó (9/5): - Location was super convenient. The room got very warm on the 11th floor. Bed was very hard.
- agne (10/5): Was great value and super noce cosy place - Easy to check in, super clean and accommodating. Had language storage and common room. Easy to navigate and to check in. N/A
- Justine (7/5): -
- Daniela (10/5): - Stanza (anzi....mini appartamento) pulito, funzionale, con ottimi servizi (cucina, lavatrice, riciclo aria...), ottima zona vicinissima a metro e zone di interesse turistico. Molto sicuro e tranquilla.
- Ailyn (10/5): - How accessible the staff was
- Rebecca (9/5): convenient and modern! - amazing location
modern room with great facilities
great shower
quiet building
easy check in / out
easy to get additional supplies for your room nothing!
the sorting of trash is only an issue if you’re not used to recycling in your home country :)

- NORIKO (10/5): リピートしたい宿 - インテリアがセンスがよく、3泊したので、キッチンと洗濯機がついていたので、外食ではなく部屋で食べたい時にキッチンツールや食器が一通り揃っていて助かった。洗濯もできた。また、どこに行くにも便利でバス停や地下鉄からも近かった。割と賑やかなエリアだが、周りの騒音はほぼなく静かだった。 特にない。
- jade (9/5): -
- Inas (7/5): A nice apartment hotel for a few days but not for more. - The room was clean and comfortable, and the location is great. The negative points for me were the room layout and the bathroom. There was not much floor room to have suitcases open and the shower area is not sealed until the bottom so the floor of the bathroom sink+toilet area would constantly get wet.

- Mara Sgattoni (10/5): Sono stata bene - Tutto il necessario pwr un buon soggiorno a seoul Posizione ottima, biancheria pulita e un super grazie a NiK che è stato nolto gentile e accogliente. Attenzione alla povere nei dettagli e un consiglio curate i verde all ingrsso é poco curato in una città verde come seoul un peccato non trovarlo curato davanti all ingresso della struttura.

Bonne isolation Un peu petit pour déposer les valises et très peu d armoires de rangement mais on peut faire avec et j y reviendrais les yeux fermés!
- Micai Perez-Villamil (8/5): - The hotel has a very functional and clean space. It is walkable to most tourist spots in Seoul, including Airport Bus stops. The space is kinda limited. No closet to keep clothes and luggages.
- Paula Aracely (8/5): -

- Pic Tin Marie Madeleine (8/5): - Location was the best! Close to restaurants and subway. Big fridge inside room and kitchenette was great. Laundry machine keeps going off/on & room temperature settings were not under control.
- Agnes Xi (8/5): Rent hotel og lydniveau fra aircondition er ok, selvom det er tændt. - Tæt på busstopsted og metro. Det er nemt at tjekke ind med QR kode, og der er pænt pg rent.
- Céline (10/5): - Quartier dynamique.
Proximité des transports.
Établissement très propre. Chambre fonctionnelle. Organisation pour le linge de toilette, la lessive etc super pratique.
Et un personnel très sympathique, discret mais réactif et arrangeant. Rien
- Wilmer (10/5): -
- Sylvie (8/5): - L’emplacement
Le Confort de l’appartement Ne pas pouvoir ouvrir les fenêtres, la climatisation au dessus du lit.
- Vishy (8/5): Decent location. Good amenities. - Decent location. Good amenities. Comparatively expensive. Nearest supermarket is 20 minutes walk.
- Abaya (9/5): Perfect for our group of friends! Would definitely stay here again. - The location was wonderful, and the room had the perfect amenities. The washer, kitchenette, and full-sized fridge was great! Value for money was excellent.
- Wolfgang (10/5): - Très bon emplacement, toutes les commodités, consigne à bagages, séjour en autonomie, kitchenette complète. Manquerait juste une petite balayette
- Tracy (9/5): -
- Siti (8/5): - Near to bus and subway location Too small
- Maren (10/5): Ich kann die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen. - Das Zimmer war sehr sauber, das Bett sehr gemütlich, die Lage super zentral gelegen. Die Mitarbeiter waren super nett. Ich hatte ein kleines Problem mit der Dusche und es wurde umgehend gelöst. Es ist ein bisschen hellhörig.
- Jerica (8/5): Very nice stay in an ideal location! - Location was great! Staff on site was nice and helpful when we needed it. The washer/dryer in the room wasn’t functioning fully during our stay, but the staff was very helpful when we asked!
- Anne (10/5): Great Amenities and Location! - Fast response from the management team using the App. I loved the self-service closet where I can exchange the used towels and get toilet papers... They have luggage storage closet for the day you check in and check out. The Insadong location is quiet and lots affordable korean food. It has a traditional vibe but very charming. The night cafe scene on the street until late - lively but quiet. Young people enjoying meeting and dating after work... so cute!!!Nothing boisterous and contained. We could go out to get food from the street vendors. My husband loved the Iszak Toast - I added avocados to make it really healthy! It is very close to subway stations and Chunggaechun. I loved walking on Chungaechun to get to Dongdaemoon Design Plaza. The room is small but for two of us we managed.
- Ewkczes (10/5): - Super lokalizacja. Bardzo czysto i przyjemnie. Fajna okolica.

- Marjorie (9/5): Idéal entre amis - Hotel très bien situé. Petit soucis au check in mais réglé tres rapidement, self check mais personnel disponible rapidement par whatsapp pour nous aider. Chambre spacieuse, prise USB C directement dans le mur, salle de bain très bien. Climatisation fonctionne bien. Machine a laver + séchoir intégré très pratique. Rooftop a côté, bruyant uniquement le WE.
- Laura (9/5): Very practical stay - It had everything we could need and the location was good. The room was too small for 3 people
- joslyn (10/5): Perfect location, great stay - Location was amazing, close to transportation, restaurants, bars etc. very clean and comfortable. Great bed.
- Carlafrancos (10/5): Excelente lugar buena ubicación. - La ubicación muy buena cerca de muchos lugares de interés y metro cerca. El departamento muy cómodo cocina excelente refrigerador grande. Camas cómodas. Piso radiante. Televisión extra grande. Lavadora con secadora. Todo me gustó. Quizas lo único que le pondria sería un closet. Ya que no hay mucho espacio para guardar ropa. Lo demás todo excelente.
- WANYU (9/5): - 全自助式公寓很不錯,地點位置方便 因為是三人入住,入住前有事先詢問是否能多要一件棉被,也有回覆可以直接去B1跟人員領取。但當天實際問B1值班人員表示目前沒有,有的話隔天會通知,然後就沒通知了,覺得不管有沒有應該都要回覆

- Aleksandra (9/5): Recommended for stays in Seoul - Excellent location. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Seoul for sightseeing. It’s within walking distance of Gyeongbokgung and Changdeokgung palaces, as well as the Myeongdong district for shopping and SPA visits. A big plus for the comfort of the stay was the washer-dryer and the small kitchenette available in the room. Check-in and check-out are done via QR codes and are very simple. The place is quite new and kept very clean. The room was definitely too warm. Since it was March, the remote-controlled heating system was set to heat and stubbornly maintained a temperature of 27°C, which was way too hot for us. Despite our attempts to turn it off, the system kept resetting to its original settings, so we had to use the air conditioning to cope. The rooms are quite small with limited space to fully open a suitcase. It would also be helpful to have more hangers and more space to hang clothes and towels in the bathroom. However, overall, it’s a very good value for money, and I think we will stay there again.

- Marcia (10/5): Cozy and comfortable - Really loved the location, and we really liked how cozy the room was and the homely vibes. Really liked the huge fridge, and also liked that there were utensils and plates readily available. Best part is the washing machine which comes with a dryer, there was no need to bring sufficient clothes for all days since I was able to do laundry and have it dry within 3 hrs. Lastly, the staff were really nice and understanding, they kindly let me have a 1 hr late checkout then I requested for last minute as i was not feeling very well. One time they even offered to drop off the towels for me when I met them in the lift. Thanks so much to the staff :) I got used to it after a while, but I think I would have felt more secure if the room had a physical lock in addition to the digital lock, especially since it opens outside rather than inside of the room.
- Sheila (10/5): Great experience, highly recommend!! - We loved our stay here! The property is very clean, quiet, beds are comfortable, great shower, great facilities including lift, washing machine, cooking facilities (although we didn’t use), regular sized fridge, and it is near and accessible to everything.
The staff are friendly and customer service is superb!! We hurriedly checked out and forgot my jacket and the staff kindly retrieved and returned it to me. Communication is fantastic and staff are very responsive even if everything is done digitally.
Check in was easy and instructions are clear and straightforward. Luggage storage is available and spacious and accessible after check out. Coming back to collect them was no fuss. I highly recommend this and we will stay again if we decide to come back to Seoul! No tea and coffee but there are lots of cafes around.
- Silvio (10/5): -
- Hazal (9/5): - Clean, very central, shower and aircon was great A lot of street noice
- DIEGO (1/5): Floor was very dirty… we spoke with staff and they offered to lend us a vacuum cleaner.. we stayed 6 days, they never ch - Not too bad Very dirty
- Ania (9/5): -
- Jessie (9/5): Great stay and good location - Location is good and center of most eateries Nothing
- Richard (2/5): Never going back to this hotel! - The bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Airconditioning was weak and to make matters worse the duvet was of very poor quality and did not allow for much breathability. I could not sleep well at all for my entire stay there. The shower area was really small (1 metre by 1 metre) and being quite tall and large meant knocking myself against the walls during showers. The water pressure in the shower was dismally weak, and it take forever to have a shower.
- Macon (9/5): -
- Silvia María (9/5): - Ubicación excelente, el metro está a tan solo unos minutos del alojamiento y conecta con las principales atracciones La habitación era demasiado estrecha teniendo en cuenta el tamaño de las camas, a penas teníamos espacio para pasar de un lado a otro de la habitación. Por lo demás todo muy bien!
- Benjamin (9/5): -
- Aliaksandr (8/5): -
- Susana (10/5): - It was very confortable Need space to put my suitcases
- philip chiang (9/5): - 位置非常方便,房間也很整齊乾淨,該有的設備都有。另外負責人非常願意幫忙,因為我們退房的時候不小心丟了一件裙子在房間,跟負責人溝通後他願意幫我們保留幾天直到我朋友過去拿,真的很感謝他 洗衣機(含烘衣功能)有一點難用,而且運轉的時候很吵,每晚基本都要被吵著睡覺
- Jeanne Allen (10/5): Perfect place to stay - Nice comfortable bed and amenities. Convenient location to restaurants, attractions and train stations.
Spacious room and well maintained. Will recommend to our friends and families. None
