    “It was the best!”

    I stayed in Myeongdong for the first time in a while. It is also close to the station. In any case, all the staff were pleasant and kind. They are all very good at Japanese. The deluxe twin room was spacious and had a bathtub, as well as a wallet. It was also cleaned nicely, but there was something like an eyelash that had fallen in the toilet. It happened for two consecutive days... Also, the outlet near the bed was difficult to use. Other than that, everything was perfect, and I want to make this my regular place to stay when I visit Myeongdong in the future.

    “First time in Korea! Amazing!”

    It was very near Exit 10 of Myeongdong, and access was great with the subway, taxi, and bus! They were able to hold my luggage both before and after check-in, and the staff at the front desk had a great atmosphere and were very kind. They communicated with me in Japanese 😊 The room was clean, and the water pressure in the bathroom was strong and comfortable! The hairdryer had strong airflow, which really helped me since I have a lot of hair!! I was taken care of for two days. I will use it again♬.*゚

    “Great hotel!”

    The location is very close to Myeongdong Station, making access perfect! The staff at the reception were very kind and helped me in Japanese, which was appreciated. Upon entering the room, it was as clean and spacious as shown in the pictures, with a vanity table, and there was enough space even with two opened suitcases. If I have to mention one downside, the windows were frosted, which made it feel closed off and I couldn’t let the morning sunlight in, so I rated the facilities with ⭐️4 stars. I’m grateful for the wonderful trip, and I would like to use it again!

    “Access is great!”

    I used this hotel for my first trip to South Korea! I stayed for 3 nights, and there was cleaning every day, as well as water provided daily. It was a trip with a friend, and the room size was more than enough. Moreover, it is very close to Myeongdong Station, so the access is excellent! I will definitely use it again when I go to Korea. The front desk staff spoke fluent Japanese, which made this trip enjoyable and worry-free!

    “Good value hotel in a great location.”

    It was a quiet and friendly hotel in front of Myeongdong Station. If you don't eat breakfast, it's good value for money. The room's layout was well defined and spacious, which was nice. It was close to Namsan Tower, so it didn't take much time to leave my luggage and go to Namsan Station.
