"It was a great experience, all the staff were very friendly and polite. If you love a great customer service this is a great place to go. Breakfast was great, I would recommend getting a room and include the breakfast. I thought it would be something we could get away with but when we tried it we ended up coming back every single morning. Super foreign friendly. Rooms were great, we travelled as a couple and it was very comfortable."

"Great hotel for a short stay in Seoul this hotel is very close to a lot of local amenities, shopping and restaurants. We had an excellent stay and would return. The area is busy in the evenings so it was loud some nights but that wasn’t too much of a disturbance. The staff were incredibly helpful, there is coin-operated laundry which is very convenient. The breakfast offering is simple more continental style with espresso coffee, toast, cereal, enough to get you started for the day and with convenience stores and cafes close by if you prefer. Felt very safe as a solo female traveller with not very much korean. Thank you StepInn for a wonderful stay."

"The location is relatively quiet for Seoul but there are enough shops and restaurants within walking distance: Thevplace is well maintained and clean although the electric outlet in our room did work it was fixed in the next morning. The staff tried hard to help but many of them only had limited skill in English. There were a variety of foods in the breakfast buffet but the quality was only average."
