The hotel and staff were lovely. We found it to be a bit far from where we wanted to be. We found other areas of Seoul to have more food options around at all hours. It was also very hot in the room even with air conditioner on cold the whole time. It was hard to sleep as it was hot overnight as soon as the sun started rising and hit the building.
