I stayed in this hotel for just a couple of nights in november 2012 when on business in seoul. I was pleasantly surprised: the price was reasonable, it was in a good location in Itaewon and best of all the decoration of the hotel was quite unique, outside and in. The room was a decent size, wifi service was fast and the staff were helpful. On a negative note, no breakfast included although there is a cafe in the hotel and there are restaurants and loads of coffee shops just outside, which i used instead. Also, there was what looked like a bleach stain on the bedroom carpet. However i was too busy marveling the views across seoul and the enormous strawberry painted on the bedroom wall!

Hotel is very easy to find just a 5 min. walk from the subway (line 6) location is very international so lots of food choices. Check-in was seemless staff speaks enough english and is very helpful they could only give us 1 key card the 1st night they out of them that was odd. Lobby has really cool swings you can sit on. Room was very clean beds were of above average comfort, bathroom is a glass cube frosted accross the middle very nice looking but does not give a lot of privacy, tube/shower is high and there is nothing to hold onto getting in and out everything was very nice bright and clean one entire wall lights up so very bright. This can be an issue if someone is trying to sleep in as turning on the lights in the bathroom will light up the entire room. Room had very limited storage space one drawer in the closet almost no place to put your luggage as well. Plug-ins will take almost any type we had no issue using our US laptops and phones without getting the adaptors out. WiFi was free but speed is slow even uploading pictures to facebook was an issue. Hallways are very nice but dark and I mean dark enough to make it hard to find your room.

We would stay here again was a good value for what we paid.

Itaewon was bustling when we arrived in the hotel on a Saturday. We found a food truck selling excellent Vietnamese fare near the hotel past 10 pm. (Unfortunately, we didn't see the truck during the next four nights we stayed in Seoul.) All the other places open that time seemed like drinking places. Bracing ourselves for loud sounds till the wee hours, our room cocooned us from the street noise of a partying Itaewon. We had good wi-fi connection on all our devices, the bed was comfortable with pillows to my liking. The toilet and bathroom were clean. Interesting though, the hotel did not have complimentary tooth care kits which I assumed was a standard for a hotel of this level.
