Rating Details

8.2 Excellent 478개 리뷰

3-star hotel within a 5-minute walk from Myeongdong Station. Strengths include an excellent location and fully equipped kitchen/washing machine, with accommodation available at a reasonable price. However, it operates on a DIY system without staff, requiring self check-in/out. Ideal for city tourists due to its proximity to Myeongdong Street and N Seoul Tower.
