This was our first stay at South Korea. The staff was helpful and friendly. The hotel was close to the subways and bus. There was also a emart next door. The location was perfect .

Forrest, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was our second time staying at this hotel. Everyone liked it the first time and so we stayed there again. We were happy to come back to a familiar place. The hotel also has a scale to weigh our luggage. This helped us sort through things before we took the nearby airport bus.

The hotel needs serious renovation. The hotel interior is very old.

The place looks like a student residence, in my room the sink in the kitchen area is not working. The location is good, close to subway.

The staff was immensely helpful. I had an issue not related to the hotel at all and they went above and beyond and helped me resolve it.

Merlin has magic in its staff
While the Merlin is not 5 star, the service is awesome, it’s an older building but what it lacks in appearance is more than compensated by the helpfulness of the manager and other staff. People who complain that it’s old should spend more of their money and go to some fancy hotel where the service can be very impersonal. The Merlin is small but the personnel have big hearts. I definitely would check in here should I visit again.
Rose, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent location, 5 min walk from Chungmuro subway, clean, helpful staff, good facilities. Laundry machine was broken.
Justin, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

For me
I wanted to repair the place where I stayed for 4 nights. size, cleaning, and service are no problem. The color of the wallpaper and the place seemed very old. The toothbrush was bad, I thought I needed a big towel. the location was beautiful
Amarjargal, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

So frustrated! They need to be remodeling all. So, so, poor and dirty.

8/10 Very good

1st time in Seoul for our group. The photos on the website were not what we expected. Room was rather small and could have used some refurbishment. There was a loft, but you could not stand there… I had to crawl from the ladder to my bed. What made up for the room was the staff. Very helpful! They provided free bottled water and had a laundry service across the street for us. The hotel was close to one of the subway stations and rather convenient. Would we stay there again?…. Probably not as it was too small for us. What made it okay was the staff’s friendliness and we were only there to shower/sleep since we were out the whole 7 days we stayed there. Also, get a room on the opposite side of the street as the sun makes the room very warm (even with the A/C) on.
GERVACIO, 7-night trip

4/10 Fair

The sink and washer were both broken they were way to relaxed about security. The code to my room, and many rooms was 1234. When I asked for a new key I didn’t show ID. Just gave them my room number and they printed one out. The worst part was that the pillows and mattress were incredibly uncomfortable. Can’t get past that.
