5-minute walk to Myeongdong Station, a budget-friendly hotel in the city center. High guest satisfaction with friendly staff service and intent to revisit, adjacent to vibrant Myeongdong Street. However, soundproofing may be weak due to noise. Recommended for shoppers and tourists visiting Namdaemun Market and Insadong.
