My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were lovely and comfortable with daily turn-down service, but the thin walls between rooms were a bit of a downside. The staff was super sweet, friendly, and helpful, though some operational communication issues were noticeable. The hotel's central location in Itaewon made it easy to access local amenities conveniently.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room I was given had noise issues both day and night, especially being near the bars, although it was spacious and clean. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being friendly while others were rude. The hotel's location in Itaewon was convenient with plenty of dining options nearby, but it could get noisy with rowdy guests. The dining experience was average at best, lacking variety and quality. Despite some shortcomings, the facilities were decent overall.

Despite being located above a nightclub that was open until 6 am, the rooms at the bars side are very well-insulated, so there's no noise issue. The hotel offers a variety of tour packages, and the staff is accommodating and efficient. The location is right next to the subway station in Seoul's Itaewon district, making it convenient for transportation. The dining options are up to the mark, offering a nice variety of Korean and continental dishes. The hotel's facilities are satisfactory, providing essential services for a comfortable stay.

I was delighted with my stay at this hotel. The rooms were immaculately clean and super comfy, although I did spot a minor issue with the room above us. The staff were incredibly friendly and always greeted us warmly. The location was perfect for exploring, especially for a Muslim traveler looking for Halal food nearby. However, the noise from the clubs nearby could be bothersome at times.
