Very well located near markets, shops, bus stop, and Seoul National University subway station. Like other hotels/motels surrounding the subway station, this is basically a so-called love motel catering to short stay visitors but it also welcomes regular tourists. My parents stayed here for 2 weeks. Upon arriving late at night, they paid for their entire stay and received a discount for cash. It's pretty good value for the budget traveler.

The room was smallish (although it had a bath tub that could seat 4!) but this was more than compensated for by the standard amenities. If you're just after somewhere to sleep after a day out and about, it's more than adequate. The staff were most obliging (and knew a little English) and the overall safety, privacy and service were superb. A whole range of shopping, eating, outdoor markets and even a sauna (jimjilbang) were nearby. Public transport by bus, taxi and subway were easy. 

My parents liked the location and inexpensive rates and would stay there again if they were ever back in Seoul. It's true there are no closets, but they got by without them. Also, they had to get use to a singing room somewhere in the street that played songs on a loop at night. After a night or two it wasn't a problem. There is no view to speak of, but you could open the window. Free bottled water, coffee and juice drinks were in the fridge in the room and in the downstairs kitchen (which also had free ice cream).

Not just a love motel

Well, the "Hotel" is in a good spot. Just 100-200 meters away are a lots of small restaurants and such. Subway approx. 5 min. by foot. That was very convenient. They even picked me up with a cab (on their costs) as i was send to the wrong place by the airport information. 
One thing though, the hotel is a former Love Hotel. Although it runs now as a usual hotel with very moderate costs, you can still see very much the former business. Hearts at the entrance and kind of dim light throughout the whole hotel.
If you want to stay in a more nonusual accomodation, thats the place. But if you're looking for a more usual hotel with windows, good english speaking staff and so on, i'd recommend a different place.

Interesting place

I should've took pictures. Although the price was very reasonable I expected more from the pictures. The room was very small, the bed took up almost the whole room. I was there for about a week and a half and had to live out of my suitcase the whole time because there was no place to put your stuff. No closet or dresser. 

The TV had a variety of channels even ones in English. The hotel is 2 blocks from the subway which is good. The staff was very friendly too. Also what I did not know when booking was this is a "love hotel", people come in and rent rooms by the hour.

I wouldn't stay here again but if your on a budget and just looking for a place to sleep at night this is the place. Went to visit my husband in the military and wished there was openings in the on base hotel. Ooh well, I enjoyed my time.

Good place if your planning on just sleeping there

STAY AWAY! Rooms are dingy, outdated, dark and reek of cigarette smoke. Also very far from all Seoul has to offer.. Checked in and checked out immediately! Thankfully I had booked through hotels.com so I was able to get a refund for 2 of the 3 nights booked. Do NOT stay here! Look for a hotel near Seoul station instead.

DO NOT STAY HERE!

Never ever stay here.

The cleaners are Chinese migrants working on minimum wage and they stole all my cash and jewelry from my room one day while cleaning. 

Checked the CCTV footage, they were the only ones who entered my room that day. The police are now investigating. 

They are dirty rotten thieves. They denied it of course. But the guilty looks on their faces said it all. Couldn't even look me in the eye. 

The hotel staff man also did nothing to help me and refused to call the police after I told him what happened. He was probably in on it too.

NEVER EVER STAY HERE.
