the location proved convenient, with easy access to buses and subways. i was on the 15th floor and the room was clean. the large windows were appealing. i appreciated the locker storage since i arrived early.
i found the air conditioning challenging as i could not reset it. the room became very stuffy. i could not lower it below 25 degrees.

Excellent Location and Comfortable Stay

excellent locationgreat room layoutthoughtful amenities
My room on the 17th floor provided a fantastic view of Gwanghwamun Square. These were replenished daily. The location was ideal because City Hall subway station, Myeongdong, and Namdaemun Market were a short walk away (very convenient indeed!).
The breakfast starting at 07:30 was not aligned with my schedule and I missed it on some days. Some receptionists displayed limited English fluency.
