I chose this hotel because of its proximity to my daughter’s apartment. I stayed a total of 10 nights. My room was spacious and clean, with a huge bathroom. Comfortable bed, too!
Great places to stay, just a bit noisy, but that is to be expected for the area. Just steps away from restaurants and the subway. Would definitely recommend this place.
All the staff in the hotel were all so lovely and nice.

Old hotel, very outdated, smells like smoking was allowed in the past. However, the location is really good. Lots of restaurants and bars and close to 2 subway lines.
We stayed for 3 weeks and really enjoyed the location.
The location is walkable to bus/subway stations and has many dining options! We felt safe walking around the hotel even at night times. Very clean, would stay again.

Very good locations near to metro stations and local restaurants. Weird there were hardly any front desk staff or receptionist to help you
Big bathroom and bedroom, considerably bigger than half of what is available in Seoul, especially at such pricepoint.
Ample excellent dining options at all hours.
This was an amazing stay at Seul. The staff was so attentive, they even spoke a bit of Brazilian portuguese. The rooms were clean and very spacious, the bathroom was very satisfying. Overall I recommendo thise place for everyone!

Plenty of dining options around. Checking in with a kiosk was an odd experience though. Room was clean and larger than others of similar price range.

Liked: Room comfort
Convenient and nice services
Spacious room
A bit old facilities
Many restaurants and bars nearby, a bit noisy in the midnight
Nice services and location
Around 10mins from metro
The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a nice 2 night stay. Very easy to get around. Parked our car and we used subway to go different places. Lots of restaurants near the hotel.
Could have been cleaned better. Advertised as soundproof rooms but we could hear our neighbors late at night laughing.
Staff is very nice but when I first got there I felt like I was walking in an uncomfortable corner. That being said it's close enough to JamsilJanae station for subway access.
Hotel is technically a motel by the way. In case you need services or delivery that requires a reputable hotel.
Still good for the cost and I had all my privacy. 7-eleven literally 1 building door away for emergency needs even at night
The hotel was very awesome. Alot of dining options are walkable and alot of places to hang out and play at
Only complaint is the bathtub when you use the jacuzzi. When you use it, it sprays a little bit of debris.
