"The location is very convenient, in the heart of Insadong. Food alleys just across the street with many yummy options. There is Paris Baguette bakery next door, 7 Eleven, GS25 convenience stores as well. It also close to some main attractions such as the 2 famous palaces. The room is very clean and the staff are very helpful and courteous."
