Guest Reviews

Meikuen (5/5): 應該不會再入住了，房間用電出問題，職員沒有很極積解決，只是提議更換房間。另外，浴室鏡子太暗，化妝不方便 - 想不到，半間房間的電插座壞了，沒有電太失望了
Carl (10/5): -
Nyma (9/5): Overall, despite the bed everything about this place was by excellent. The location is so central and the staff are so f - It was very central to many things…not too far from night life but not too close where there are crowds near you. The staff are also very kind, helpful and friendly. The space was very large and allowed us to easily have two checked and carry on luggages opened out. The only issue as stated by others in the review is the bed. It might be one the most uncomfortable bed I have slept in. It is very hard and be ready for your back to hurt a little. However you get used to it after a couple days.
Dariya (10/5): - Удобное расположение, едет прямой автобус из аэропорта. Все, что необходимо, находится в близи. -
Mate (5/5): Friendly staff, but the rooms were run-down and the bathroom kept flooding. - The location was both good and bad — it was close to the city center, but quite noisy due to the traffic. The staff were very helpful and spoke perfect English. The room was quite run-down. The furniture and kitchen looked like they’d been repaired in a messy DIY fashion. The bathroom was a disaster — the hot water took ages to come on, the drain kept clogging, and it wasn’t due to hair in the filter but poor plumbing. Even during short showers, the entire bathroom floor would flood.
Cornell (10/5): Seoul lofts - Super clean . English speaking staff . VERY helpful
enthuzimuzzy (9/5): Great location near transit and amazing historic sites! - The apartment was very comfortable and spacious. Everything was clean and well cared for. Love the staff. The bed was very hard for our preference so maybe mattress topper option would be nice.
Remy (9/5): Heel geschikt voor een wat langer verblijf. - Een heerlijke appartement als je wat langer in Seoul wil blijven. Het ligt centraal, dicht in de buurt van de paleizen. Daar combat heeft wel ramen, maar die zijn afgeplakt met melkglas, waardoor je niet naar buiten kan kijken. Het appartement is fijn, maar de ramen geven wat besloten gevoel.
Benjamin (10/5): - Arrived and check in went very smooth. Property was clean and had everything we needed. Service was wonderful. Checkout was easy and as expected. Will definitely come back again next trip. Thank you for having us.
Zhane (10/5): - My husband and I stayed at SLA for about two weeks and I couldn’t have been more happy with choosing this location for my first trip to South Korea. The area was beautiful and extremely convenient. There were bus stops steps away from the apartment and one of them even stops right in front of the building. The hosts were incredibly sweet people who were so kind and helpful. The room was perfect, comfortable and firm bed great for my bad back. Bathroom was clean which is a big deal for me and anything we needed was easy to ask for and provided either immediately or shortly after. There was nothing I would have changed about this stay. Very near many places to eat and lots to do with some very large palaces with hanbok rentals within walking distance. There was so much to see and do just in this area alone and transportation was very easy to get to go to larger areas like Hongdae and Seoul. I will absolutely be booking here again! I hope you will give this place a try, I find it will be hard to be disappointed here :)
Itraveltheworld (10/5): Enjoyable Stay at Seoul Loft Apartments, Would Highly Recommended! - Thank you to SLA staff. I had a fantastic stay. The location was perfect, my room was clean and modern, and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. It felt like a true home away from home. Highly recommend for anyone looking for comfortable and convenient accommodation in Seoul. Cleaner did a great job on our room and staff were always reachable. Bed was not super soft, but still had a good sleep.
Ali (10/5): - The staff was friendly and accommodated our delay and late check in after 6 as well as stored our luggage in day of checkout. The apartment had a nice open loft layout with ice cold AC and plenty of room. We communicated easily on WhatsApp and they had a detailed handbook explaining everything. The even gave some great food recommendations.
Michelle (10/5): Who said bigger isn't alwasy better? In this case it is. - Host was wonderful and very helpful during our stay. Property was great at helping with luggage at check-in and check-out. Called me a taxi when I needed and were as nice as any 5 star hotel I have stayed. Loft was very big and we had plenty of room, much more than we needed. Still it was nice to come home after a long day of exploring and have an apartment we could breath in, and enjoy a glass of wine to finish off the day. Great option if you are staying for a bit more longer, as this place is typically a 7 night min for my understanding. I wish they had a pod coffee machine. They do have a drip style machine, but the ground coffee did not have many option when we went to the supermarket.
Dale (10/5): Thank you for a comfortable stay in Seoul. Will recommend to family! - Nice oasis in one of the best areas of Seoul. Walking distance to so many spots. The apartment I had was very spacious with good light. Quiet and clean. The staff were around but not too intrusive. We kept in touch with phoen chatting, and they recommended a few very good restaurants near the apartment. Very happy with my choice and would choose this property again for the fantastic location and good value. Rooftop was closed one day due to rain, I know its not anyone's fault, but would be nice if they had some outdoor space that could be used even if the weather is bad.
David (6/5): Pleasant - There was no elevater and stair way was so high, it was very uncomfortable. Bathroom was not too clean.
James (10/5): - Love staying here… the manager is great with communication/via texts and the rooms are big and quiet. Cheers, James Lee
Mei (8/5): Very good -
Hong Yu (10/5): Fantastic apartment. - It was a totally excellent service from the property. It started to message me guiding me where to take the airport bus to the door step very convenient. Mr Lee the manager was a very helpful and friendly guy. Had a good chat. The room was spacious, clean and comes with a heated floor. Excellent for winter.
Ruth (9/5): Great apartment - -Close to the city with great transport links - great sized lounge - all the amenities were in working order -staff were very friendly and helpful
Henri (5/5): Passable - Room for four with washing machine and stove at walkable distance of downtown key tourist sights. The street, though busy during the day, did not cause too much sound during the night: Was able to sleep without earplugs. The available ventilation was opening the window to a busy street. The room had a detergent-like smell on the level of being noticeable in contrast to the hallway when entering the room but then you’d stop noticing it once in the room for a while. Staff initially blamed it on the building being old, but a couple of nights in staff offered to do an extra wipe of the floor with water without detergent, and that appeared to make the situation a bit better. The warehouse-evocative look wasn’t really my cup of tea, though I guess that’s what ”loft” is about. (The floor is concrete that is, for the most part, covered with see-through epoxy, and the shelves also had a warehouse-evocative look.) Credit card billing was from Hong Kong instead of in won from South Korea, which may be relevant to folks whose bank places regional limits on cards.
Hyeonsoo (6/5): - Great location Very nice staff
Mihael (8/5): Very good -
june (6/5): - The location was suitable. The public transportation was not as close as I thought it would be, but not a huge issue. The best thing about the property was the space. The unit was an open spaced and spacious. It was not most clean place and with a little bit of care, it can be in much better condition, specially the window area. The staff were excellent. The manager (forgot his name) was very cordial and responsive to our request. Actually he always did an extra step to keep us comfortable. He made our stay pleasant.
Ali-Altaaf (8/5): - The location was good, there's a cvs nearby with alot of restaurants and coffee shops nearby as well as the palace (and another one a bit further). The metro station is abit far by walk, but there's tons of buses everywhere passing very often. The hosts were super friendly and helpful.
Rob (10/5): - We had a wonderful stay at SLA for a week in late April 2024. The entire staff was friendly and helpful and made our stay easy. The room itself was spacious and clean...loved the shower and the fridge/teapot and washer/dryer in particular...1 little challenge was the shower draining into the center of the bathroom...we put some towels down to minimize the issue so not a big deal. We highly recommend staying at SLA...great value for the price and space and again, the staff were so nice and helpful.
Mishael (10/5): Exceptional - The host was more than helpful. He went out of his way to assist in any way that he could and made our stay quite enjoyable. Thank you!
Terrie (10/5): - Office staff were amazing and VERY helpful. I enjoyed my stay at SLA. Even though there is a palace and a temple across the street, I felt the area definitely had a more "neighborhood" feel and less "touristy". The only possible dings would be (1) it is a walk-up, so if mobility is an issue, it is something to think about; and (2) the nearest subway station is about a 15-minute walk away... However, bus stops are very close and plentiful and it is pretty easy to hail a cab.
Liuchen (10/5): Big value and Clean Space. Thanks for a good stay. - Best stay we had during our visit to Korea. A special thank you to the manager. Location is good, apartment is big and everything you need is included. Great Value and better than I expected. If you are expecting a luxury hotel, this is not where you should book, but if you want a nice, clean apartment with a full kitchen in a great location than this is well worth it. When I compared similarly priced options, I could get a nice apartment at SLA or a box basic hotel room that I would have trouble opening your suitcase in. For me this was an easy decision. I wish I could cut out the middle man in my booking.
Mikusatoshi (10/5): LOVED the LOFT - Loved the Loft. Big apartment and nice clean bed. Very happy with my stay and felt like I was really living in Seoul. There were lots of great cafes all a couple min walk, ILLT, DOUCHE and Behind Me Coffee bar are some I would recommend. The area is great and much better than Myeongdong in my opinion. Lots of things to see all within walking distance. Wish I could stay a bit longer. No complaints
Davidkangking (10/5): Warm and Clean with Heated Floors. Great Option. - Thank you to SLA staff for a wonderful stay. They really go out of their way to help if you ask. The apartment was better than I expected and was pleasantly surprised. It had everything we needed and was clean and warm. Needed for how cold it was outside. The best part for me and my parter was the heated floor. It was extremely comfortable and much better than other places I have staying at. Apartment was unique and everything was very clean. You are also super close to a couple Palaces we could walk in about 5-7 min. Location was great for this sort of activity. They do not provide coffee and tea, but there is a cafe on the ground floor. would be nice if they had this though.
Yang Sun (10/5): - The management of this apartment is just excellent! The service and attention to details was immaculate. I arrived from Incheon via the airport bus which was very conveniently located right in front of the apartment. I was not feeling well upon arrival as I was having motion sickness but the staff looked after me, and made sure I was comfortable. They have been keeping in touch with us since the time we booked the accommodation and had been extremely helpful in providing information for our trip and checked in with us closer to date as well. Anything we need they have provided or attended to swiftly. I have nothing but praise for this place. Upon seeing our luggages ( we had 10 luggage’s although we have 4 of us including two young teens) they helped to gauge our needs and supported in getting a transport for us. SLA is highly recommended. Although they do have a stairway with no lifts, they have been very helpful to carry our luggage’s both on check in and check out. Extremely helpful team and all are able to speak perfect English! Simply love it! If I were to go Seoul again, I will not hesitate to book it again.
Stephanie (8/5): Very good -
Marc De (8/5): - Good property. Staff were pleasant, helpful and attentive. Property condition was ok. Area was a little noisy given the property was off the main road and near a major emergency hospital.
Leung (10/5): Better than a hotel - Very nice stay, would recommend to any friend or family visiting Korea. So much better than a standard hotel. We could actually open our suitcase and walk around. Very happy and employees were all very nice. Neighborhood was a great location with lots of things near by. liked our stay very much.
Dee (10/5): Terrific stay at Seoul Loft Apartments - The staff are absolutely outstanding. I'm sorry I didn't get the name of the manager, but he was incredibly kind and helpful. Communication was fantastic and he went above and beyond to assist with anything we needed. The apartment itself is a great size, beds are super comfortable. The kitchen is adequate for preparing easy meals and there is a washing machine in the room also. The location is good, it's around a 10min drive from the Myeongdong or Insadong hubs, which are great for shopping and markets. There is a bus stop right out the front of the apartments and the closest subway station is around 15min walk. We were travelling with a child, so mostly used taxis. There is a convenience store across the road which we accessed daily and stocked almost everything we'd need food wise. N/A
Kazi (10/5): Big and bright apartment with nice staff - Very nice place, clean and great staff. Apartment was bright and had everything we needed. Lots of space to organize our luggage etc. Also this was the end of our trip so the washing machine was very much needed. Staff gave us detergent. No elevator, but helpful staff that carried luggage.
Keiko (10/5): Central and spacious apartment with great service - Loved this place. Very big apartment and felt like I was really living in Korea. Area was also the best. Palace and Gwangung Market were a short walk and were super fun. Thank you staff for a great stay and look forward to our next vacation in Seoul. no complaints.
Amyqi (10/5): Great Location, Great Service, Spacious Apartment - One of my favorite locations in Seoul. Loved the area, our apartment was very comfortable and clean. We also had a great dinner at the Korean restaurant at SLA. Staff are extremely kind and made for a memorable stay. Staff was very nice and gave me very early check in. I wish I could live there. :( I would recommend and would be happy to return. à la prochaine! They do not provide drinks or coffee etc. Would be nice if they could offer this.
Anastasiya (10/5): Very comfortable and Spacious loft - Had a wonderful stay at this residence apartment. Very good value and wonderful location. We didn't need to take a taxi for most of what we were doing. Everything was 10-15 min walk including great restaurants, gwang jang market and a few very nice suggestions by the manager. Thank you ;) Would be happy to return and would recommend for anyone looking for something a little different than a standard hotel. The rooftop was not open during two days due to the rain. Boo hoo.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Loved our stay here! The staff was amazing and the room was stylish, clean and very roomy. Great amenities and close to the palaces and other great activities and restaurants. Would stay again if I ever get the chance to go back!
April (10/5): Finally something not boring - I stayed in one of the SLA Lofts 202. Loft was super beautiful and lots of space. I had everything I could want. The staff also went out of their way to help me with suggestions and places to explore. They moved all our luggage when we checked in and when we checked out, just like a hotel. Kitchen was very nice to have although I only made Ramen. Our apartment was very clean and design was very cool. Our apartment faced the main road, sometimes I would hear the occasional car, but for me this was completely fine and overall very quiet. No problems. Comfortable and would come back if I have a chance.
Nynke (8/5): Very nice - We had a pleasant stay in a nice room, location was very good. We thought that the rooftopterrace wad fully open, which was not.
Dong (10/5): - The property has a living room, separate bedroom floor, kitchen and bathroom. It felt like a bachelor pad and was so cool! Location is great, with a palace right next door and EASY ways to find home since you are right next to the SNUH (every taxi knows it). In addition, staff were friendly and helpful, very nice people! I recommend!
Ng (10/5): - I recently stayed at the Seoul Loaf Apartment and had a fantastic experience. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed for my stay. The location was also great, with easy access to public transportation and many restaurants and shops nearby. What really stood out to me, though, was the excellent staff. Everyone I interacted with, from the Team to the hotel manager, was friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was enjoyable. They were always available to answer any questions I had and provided great recommendations for things to do and see in the area. Overall, I highly recommend the Seoul Loaf Apartment for anyone looking for a great place to stay in Seoul. The comfortable accommodations and exceptional service make it an excellent choice for both business and leisure travelers.
Vanessa Lee (10/5): - The property managers were the stars of this stay. They were so helpful in every way they could be. They suggested touring and sight seeing options, assisted in booking transportation when necessary, educated us on the subway system, and were very communicative even when we were out traveling the country. The address cards they made were a godsend, we just had to show a taxi driver the card and we transcended any language barrier - genius. In-apartment laundry for long stays is a game changer too. I would definitely stay again. The only downside is no elevator - the stairs would definitely be a challenge for anyone with an injury/disability BUT they carried our insanely heavy luggage up and down the stairs so that was helpful. I loved every minute of my home away from home!
Hyun Suk (10/5): Great to stay - Comfortable to stay and minimum troubles. Very convenient location.
Verified traveler (10/5): - This hotel was in a perfect location! So close to everything! The staff was very nice and friendly, the rooms were spacious and clean. The bed was very comfortable! The view was really awesome because I could see Chang Gyeong palace. Plus, did not hear much street noise. This is my favorite place and I will definitely stay here again next time I come!
Verified traveler (8/5): - Very good option, super helpful staff, nice loft overall... do note this is NOT a hotel. Its literally across rhe street deom one of the 5 palaces, and an airport bus is just in front when you arrive and a street away when you leave to the airport. The floor is heated, which is nice during winter, only "complaints" are that a small current of air managed to get in through the window (the room was still warm overall, but at times you could feel a chilly breeze) and the water at the shower was warm, but not hot. I did not discuss this with the staff during my stay as they werent that relevant for me, so I am hoping they could have been solved if neccessary. Personally I recommend it, but wanted to give a heads up as I know people who would expect very hot water.
M (10/5): Clean & Modern with a good location. Reommended! - Very friendly and helpful staff. Always there with a smile and a good morning :) Room and entryway / hallways always clean and tidy. Apartment was high standard with washing machine / hob / fridge / freeze / microwave and kettle. Bathroom was large with a good shower and toiletries were provided. Good location with bus route and subway in easy walking distance. About 35 minutes from Seoul station but that is just a short subway ride away. Strongly recommend these apartments to anyone staying in Seoul
Verified traveler (8/5): Your Own Loft in the City of Seoul - The staff has been very helpful. Easy and pleasant check in. She even declined my asssitance to carry my heavy luggage to my unit. There is no lift in this neat apartment hotel. Quiet and peaceful and the unit I had was tastefully decorated. Only that the stairs of the loft unit was painted in BLACK and since the steps are not very wide, it can be a little dangerous to climb up and down the loft. Perhaps a brighter colour for the steps would have been better. Not perfect for vacation like sightseeing and shopping...since the location is a little out of the way and the Seoul Metro is quite a walk. I take the route pass the SNUH to my station every morning to get to meetings. A good estimated 500m walk. Pretty good morning exercise.
Klara (10/5): Amazing staff and location - The owner and the staff are super friendly and accommodating. By far the best service you can ask for. The location is in the middle of Dondaemun Market and the Goong. 10 min walk to a main subway line. Also there are alot of yummy resturaunts and coffee shops within 2min and theres the Gwangjang Market within 10min. Next to the market is a small stream that's super romantic and beautiful at night. The neighborhood is easy to access to other tourist attractions by subway or taxi. Taxi is pretty cheap in Korea.
Verified traveler (10/5): - it was very amazing I loved everything about the apartment in about the staff there is so very friendly and very very helpful I will be coming back to this place next time I go to Korea.
Hung (10/5): - Very good location, quite close to major commercial areas and subway station
Dorothy (8/5): - It's a stylish place n convenient location to stay.
Roy (10/5): Great location!! - Fantastic location and super friendly and helpful staff. We will stay here again!!
Haillie (10/5): Happy that we found here - We were so happy with this apartment and our stay! Loved the restaurants that staff recommended to us!! Pros: English speaking staff, clean & unique room, amazing location, Korean restaurant next door, famous night market within walking distance, convenient store across the road Cons: No elevator in the property
Anastasiya (10/5): Amazing Location - Spacious apartment centrally situated in JongNo. It is close to the main area and I felt safe at night as a solo traveler. Also, the maeul bus(they call it 'village bus' as it goes close to their village that regular buses don't go.) comes right in front of the property and the transportation is close and efficient. No need to have a vehicle unless you want to explore the city on your own.
Jack (10/5): I would like to move in - It was fantastic! The room condition as well as the location were clean and gorgeous. Great access to the palace, Myungdong area, DDP if I've got it right and the big and famous hospital was also close though I didn't need to go. It was overall lovely stay. Cheers Dennis & Elle.
Leonard (10/5): Lovely rooftop & comfortable stay - We liked the location of this property and our room was spacious. We went up to the rooftop that wasn't technically open due to chilly weather and it has a lovely small street view. Special thanks to the lady who helped us check in. We couldn't catch her name though.
Melonie (10/5): Comfortable stay & amazing staff - We loved this apartment! We happened to find and stayed here when we got off at Hyehwa by accident. We were able to reach Gwangjang Market, Insa and Myungdong without any troubles and have some nice rest which felt like our second home for many reasons. Rooms were neat, staff were so helpful to find all the places to visit within hours. Thanks to all and we will definitely stay here again if we ever come back to Seoul.
Verified traveler (10/5): Great choice, will be staying again - My friend and I tried to make a difference with accommodation types and this serviced apartment was definitely worth it and good value for money. Staff were friendly and fluent in English, room was clean and cozy. The area was also able to give me chances to take a walk around. Only if I had better photography skills...:)
Sang Hee (10/5): 가족, 커플, 친구들끼리 오기에 좋습니다. - 평소 좋아하는 곳이라 여러번 방문 후 장단점 정리하여봅니다. 장점 1. 마을버스 12번이 건물 바로 앞에서 내려줌 (개인적으로 가장 좋다고 생각하는 점이에요) 2. 버스, 지하철이 근처라 교통이 아주 편리함 3. 직원들의 진정성있는 서비스. 친절하고 밝음. 4. 출입구를 카드키 없이는 열 수 없어 안전하다고 느낌 (자동으로 잠기는 시스템) 5. 인테리어가 이국적이고 특이함 6. 요리 시설이 잘 갖춰져있음 단점 1. 계단이 꽤 가파른 편이고 엘리베이터가 없음. 2. 갔던 날이 미세먼지가 심한 날이었는데 지하철역까지 도보로 먼 편. 건물 앞에서 12번 마을버스 타고 가서 큰 문제는 아니었지만... 위의 문제 말고는 항상 즐거운 방문이네요. 늘 고맙습니다.
Mike (10/5): - Place was great. It’s hard to find a separate room for the kids and while it was upstairs and the staircase is a tad bit scary our 4 year old did well even in the middle of the night. Great to have them in their own space after a long day
Verified traveler (10/5): Way better than expected - We had a fantastic time at SLA. Loft was so beautiful. I think I filled up my phone with photos. My friends and I stayed 2 nights and were more than happy with staff and apartment. Could not have expected a more pleasant stay. I live in Seoul, but there are not too many places like this, our apartment was really special it felt like being in a new city. If I have anyone visiting I would highly recommend a stay here. Apartment had a big kitchen with dining table we used well.
Verified traveler (8/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff. The apartment was in a good location for seeing Seoul. We really enjoyed our stay.
Michael (10/5): Great apartment/hotel - The staff at SLA are very friendly and very helpful. The room was spacious, clean and cool with AC. I highly recommend staying here!
Brent (8/5): Pleasant stay at SLA Seoul Loft Apartments - SLA Seoul Loft Apartments are a very option for anyone wanting to stay in the northern part of Seoul and have a more home-style of accommodation than the usual hotel can provide. The apartments are in a generally good location, although getting to the nearest restaurant districts is a bit of a walk as are the nearest subway stations. The apartment I stayed in was fairly spacious and clean, with the bed upstairs in a loft. The apartment was surprisingly quiet, given it's adjacency to a very busy street. The staff is friendly and responsive, if not overly enthusiastic. One word of caution is that you have to negotiate floor - 1/2 of stairs and the steps to the sleeping loft are quite steep. Not a problem in general, but something a person with limited mobility should be aware of.
Weeboy (10/5): Feel at home - I would like to start off by acknowledging the people who made our stay more wonderful; Dennys, the manager, I’m not sure if I got his name spelled right, we would like to thank him for making us feel comfortable, we’ve tried the restaurantsnhe has suggested and they were perfect. Tony, works at the front desk, he’s korean but grew up in our country, he has gone the extra mile by educating us with their culture. About the apartment, I’d rather stay in the apartment than a 5-star hotel, we stayed in a hotel prior to this since, we were on an 8-day holiday but I would highly recommend this apartment instpead. It’s the same feeling you can have when you miss home. It was perfect for us. I made a full review of this apartment and the employees in Tripadvisor. Feel free to browse and read it as well.
Verified traveler (8/5): - Friendly and helpful staff. Large area with all mod cons. Close to tourist attractions and restaurants
yvonne (8/5): Nice apartment - the friendly staff Tony respond to my email very fast and provide details direction to the apartment. The room is big and comfortable for 2 person. Around 15 mins walk to Hyehwa station.
Verified traveler (10/5): Nice Boutique Experience - Perfect sized and comfortable boutique hotel/apartment pretty good location and pleasant staff. I needed to renovate my house and stayed here several times. I particularly like the bar on the downstairs, very cool and staff very friendly. Staff at the apartment provide a real-human experience. They really care about their guests and it shows. High praise for the apartment facilities and comfortable living experience. Thank you SLA.
Verified traveler (10/5): Large Room Great Staff - Conveniently located with convenience store just across the street. Staff were very helpfull in suggesting dinner and delivery options for us. Our room was large (we were actually given one with two double beds, there was only us two staying as a couple). The room contained everything you might need for a comfortable stay. Perhaps my only complaint is very minor which is there were no phone in the room. Would still be happy to stay again.
Verified traveler (10/5): Stellar Stay in a spacious room - This is a great place to stay for a reasonable price. The beds are very comfortable and the staff is terrific. We stayed with friends and were very happy. The location is quiet at night but still has some things near by if you want more excitement. Apartment had a nice kitchen and dining area that we stayed up chatting around all night. Fantastic night.
Verified traveler (10/5): Fantastic apartment, what else is there to say. - This was my friend who stayed and I booked for her. She had a great stay. Big apartment was much better than expected. Staff were super kind and helped with accepting some packages we had delivered before we arrived. I would recommend SLA if you are in Seoul. We have only good things to say.
Verified traveler (10/5): Highly Recomend, Good Stay in Central location - Very large apartment, clean and comfortable. Full Kitchen was a plus. I didn't cook much, but if staying longer it would be great. Across the street from palace, market and Gwang Gung Market all close. Korean and Western food available in downstairs restaurants. Close to public transport to go anywhere. I would stay again.
Verified traveler (10/5): Best extneded stay accomodation. - Wonderful 2 night stay, felt like home. Was a little worried as it was not a traditional style hotel. But was super impressed with the apartment we got. It exceeded my expectations. I felt like I was in a different world. Apartment was very cool and interior was really well done and comfortable. I would recommend over any hotel I've stayed before in Seoul. If I go back I know where to book now. I didn't really speak with staff too much, but the area was easy to get around. Never had trouble getting a taxi and staff were helpful in storing and taking care of our luggage. Couldn't have picked a better place and would be happy to recommend if you are staying in Seoul for more than a few days.
Verified traveler (10/5): Great Apartment for Family - Fantastic apartment for a family. We had a comfortable stay and even though it was pretty cold weather in Seoul, heated floor system was super cozy after being outside shopping. My kids loved it. Convenience store just across the street and all things pretty accessible. Nice neighborhood with lots of stuff near, in our opinion the location is quite good. Staff were very attentive, and helpful when we had any questions. We didn't try the restaurant for dinner, but we did have coffee, wish we had more time to enjoy it. Would recommend this apartment over a hotel if you are traveling with family. Having a kitchen was pretty invaluable when you are traveling with young kids. Thanks again for lettings us borrow the DVD player it was super helpful and much appreciated!
Verified traveler (10/5): Kind Service and spacious apartment - Traveling in Seoul is not alwasy easy. Most taxi drivers don't speak English and my Korean is not great. The care and help from hotel staff is essential in making your stay a smooth one or having a nightmare trying to get somewhere to have dinner with your family. SLA staff were amazing. Always available when we had questions and went beyond any expectations for helping with our transportation and also helping with reservations and with arranging a return of missing Items my daughter left in a taxi. We travel a lot as a family and this hotel or apartment was the best I've had the pleasure of working with. You will not regret a stay at SLA, as the staff are super. Rooms are also big and have more than you need to be comfortable. one comment. Black out curtains would be a nice additions, both honestly we had a great stay.
Erin (8/5): - Comfortable room and big enough for more than 4 people. Good location for going to the palaces and historical areas. Very clean and very helpful front desk personnel.
S (8/5): - Hotel staff are extremely helpful. Very comfortable apartment, good for long stay in particular.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Very good customer service front desk girl made sure we got a taxi she came outside with us to flag a taxi I was very expressed
Daniel diverdan (8/5): Feels like home - Over the past 10 years my wife and I have stayed at the Seoul loft apartments. Unlike the high rise hotels in Seoul. the SLA feels like home . The Staff is very friendly and is quick to accommodate us with whether it is ironing board or drying rack or letting us use their computer. I wish I knew more Korean language to thank them. If you are traveling the Seoul loft Apartments are the ideal place to get to the airport transit buses to Incheon which cost $10.000 and you don't need a taxi. There are decent restraint's and dongdemun. is not that far. and several Hospitals only 15 minutes from SLA.
Dean (10/5): Great Apartment for travelers - Spacious room and nice facility for traveler such as a washing machine was good. Perfect place for travel.
Kim (10/5): cool central apt. - Reserved for my business trip. Room was equipped well and neat and clean. staff was super helpful. (even I had to ask so many directions)
S (8/5): Great location to the SNU Hospital - The location can not be any better if you are going to the Seoul National University Hospital. Access to the rest of the city can be done by bus, which would make you walk 3, 4 minutes for the bus stop. The staff were really helpful and attentive - you'll interact with them everyday and they will get things done and ready should you have any requests. The hotel did have a feel of apartments. Something that you would like if you're staying for a long term. The room was smaller than expected, but it was nicely laid out so it was still comfortable enough. The room only had a small window and it was facing an ugly looking parking lot. The bathroom had a sliding door and had a gap through which you can see the inside a bit.. Struggled a little with clogging sink of the shower, which was fixed (not perfectly tho) on the same day of request. The room stayed humid all the time due to the shower room which wouldn't close, and therefore it smelled funny and humid the entire time. I can imagine myself staying here again for a few reasons but I'm afraid I still wouldn't be 100% happy during my stay.
Christopher (10/5): I'd pick a full apartment any day. - Stayed in one of the SLA lofts. Took a chance but was well worth it. Staff were extremely helpful and more attentive than most 4 star hotels. I felt like I won the jackpot with this room though. So nice I was in C202 and it's such a bachelor pad. I wish I could have stayed longer. The neighborhood is very good. Subway was about 10 min for me, this was hyehwa station. I used the bus to get to around while I was there. Dollar for dollar this apartment is a much better deal than any hotel i've stayed at. There are tons of business hotels to choose from, but if I'm staying for more than a few nights in the future I will stay in a full apartment.
Dennis (10/5): Extreamly Satisfied. - Much Better than expected. Pleasantly surprised. Loft had all brand new duvet and bedding. Seems like they upgraded this recently. Room was nice and had all the amenities needed. I booked because I was making special dinner for my partner. Very helpful and nice to be in a home style setting even if only for 1 Night.
Favian Eric (10/5): Apartment Hotel, quiet area but easily accessible - The staff here is so sweet. My wife and I loved interacting with them, everyday. And the apartments are beautiful lofts. Way better than staying at any hotel. It was only a few minutes walk to hyehwa station, too! So my wife and I were able to get around Seoul, like champs. We will stay here again and recommend everyone look at staying here.
SY (10/5): Nice apartment for weekend - Booked for friend's B-day. Perfect place for our lovely memory. We love to come back later again.
EM (10/5): Perfect! - This place is awesome! The staff were friendly, courteous, and helpful. The room was exactly what we wanted and needed for a week vacation in Seoul. SLA is about 10 minutes from a shopping and eating area, so we got take-out on some nights and every morning had breakfast in our room (full grocery store is about 10 minutes walking distance). It's close to many cultural sites and cool neighborhoods. When we return to Seoul, we'll return to SLA.
Lele (2/5): Horrible as a Hotel and Horrible as a Loft - I was unlucky enough to make a group of reservations at SLA, so this review is in parts: PART 1 - A Really Bad Everything You're getting screwed if you're looking for a hotel-type experience because: they have a small, poorly trained staff that pretty much only speaks Korean. As a result, this staff will be unable to resolve issues for you in a timely manner, like 24 hours. So when you discover the floor under the dining table has never been cleaned (and this is obvious the second you sit down at the table because your feet stick to the floor), there's a dead bug in the tableware, the wifi in your room is out... it's going to stay that way. Instead, the staff is kept busy doing things like ripping the labels off of water bottles and putting SLA stickies on them instead, so just clean the things yourself. Surprisingly though, you're also getting screwed if you want a loft experience because: when you book a loft, you look forward to having your own quiet, calm, personal space. Too bad you'll hear everything going on around you from the surrounding rooms and lobby. You'll have to rely on the front desk to ring you into the building each time because they think their front door keys are expensive and people will steal them and that makes having too many available pretty "dangerous". Too bad your ceiling is leaking onto the bed or the bathroom sink leaking all over the floor. If it really was your loft, you'd call a plumber.
Nelson (10/5): Simply Amazing! - For a first time visitor to Korea, SLA was my home away from home. The staff made it impossible for me to miss my home. How to put it? They were just AMAZING! Front desk personnel strived to make my stay a magnificent and memorable one. They always had a smile and attended all my requests extremely fast. I have traveled around the world and this hotel/apartment has been by far the best! Arrival, the night staff gentleman was eager to help, guide and do what ever it took to make me feel comfortable. On one occasion, I returned around 3am and there was he with a smile and asking if I needed anything. Eager to serve a client. Day shift personnel was the same. Always willing to go beyond what was expected with a professional and smiling attitude. Something hard to find these days. If you go, take a minute to meet Mr. Dennis, Manager, even though he was busy, each time I asked for him, if he was there, he would stop what he was doing attend my questions. Now that is something I haven't seen in a really long time. Last, I love Latin food, and next door to the hotel there is a Cuban fusion restaurant. The food was great. The chef even though she didn't speak well English, she did her best to make me feel extremely comfortable and always with a warm charming smile. In synthesis, SLA is a hidden treasure place. Location, Service and the Staff are just AMAZING! THANKS to everyone at SLA for making a wonderful trip even better!
Verified traveler (2/5): - Staff helpful No room cleaning TV NOT WORKING ALSO THE AC
Verified traveler (2/5): - The AC not working No one clean the room
Louis (8/5): Good place. - The place was clean and pleasant . Little bit small for the price but overall I was satisfied for night I stayed there.
Verified traveler (10/5): good serviced residence type hotel - Pros- Nice facilities, great room size,great kitchen, clean. Cons- no elevator, check in starts at 4pm, hefty surcharge (20,000)per hour for late check out
Carolee (10/5): Spacious! - The neighborhood was really fantastic. Close walk to metro. The room furnishings were worn, I will admit - the bed was hard and the sofa had no spring left in it's cushion. However, I still give this hotel a very high rating because of the overall experience and spaciousness of the room. After having stayed at another hotel in Seoul where we kept tripping over our luggage, in hindsight, I would've booked at this hotel again rather than moving to another room. Traveling with a 4 year old, space for her to run around and move through the hotel is very important to us. The hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating with our requests. The room was super clean. Like I said, the only bad mark is the furniture being worn. Other than that FANTASTIC hotel.
Verified traveler (8/5): - A bit far from subway station but close to historical scenery.
Verified traveler (8/5): International travelers - Very convenient location. Staff was very friendly and very helpful. I recommend this place especially for international travelers.
Verified traveler (2/5): DO NOT EVER VISIT THIS PLACE - Do not ever go here with your family and friends. The only thing tolerable about this room was its modern design. The air-conditioner was broken but the staff was not willing to switch the room, instead she gave us a fan. How ridiculous is this? Moreover, after 11pm, me and my friends were talking and people in adjacent room filed complaints to the front desk multiple times. When we googled this room, people say that it is for party, but it was not. And the front desk staffs were mad at us claiming that we made noises after midnight. Never ever visit this place again. I had a terrible weekend away because of this place.
