The location not far from Myeongdong station. We reached early in the morning but they let us put our luggage first. So that easier for us to get around. Everything was there even though it's just a small room but equipped with all we needed including kitchenette with fridge, microwave, kettle, washer, iron, tv, wifi etc. There's also water filter and vacuum cleaner for everyone. I'm very particular about cleanliness but the place was clean and neat. I liked it. There's also simple breakfast at the roof top but I never been there. Only my son been there for eggs and milk. The other food we not sure about the halal status, so we didn't have it. Amy was very kind and great host. Since we're Muslim and need to prepare halal food, she let us cook and bring all needed despite her 'no cooking' rules. Truly appreciate her kind understanding. Will definitely come again if I visit Seoul. Amy..thanks so much.

It was a very good deal for a budget traveller considering the location, it's perfect and easy access to almost everywhere and everything. For an Asian like me, the room's size was just enough. Special thanks to the staff who let me checked in early coz I wasn't feeling well. Will stay here again if I'm traveling solo to Seoul again. :)

Money for value a great deal. Location is hard to beat as it's in Myeongdong's heart and connects to many tourist sights even in walking distance, has plenty of bus and metro connection in proximity too. A great start into Seoul on a budget. It was clean and tidy. Free drinking water in the kitchen and other amenities.

This is a very good budget place. It is well managed, spotlessly clean, excellent location, nice staff. The accommodation style is ‘goshiwon’ - very basic and cheap. So you get what you pay for.
