Reviews

Staff was very friendly and helpful
-
Cool hotel in a great location right in Korea Town. Beds were the most comfortable hotel beds ever!
-
We had a great stay the staff was friendly but if you ask for early check in don’t get too excited. Our early check in was approved only to find out it actually wasn’t and we were told that it happens all the time.

Great experience very friendly staff and spacious rooms

Had a couple of small issues on arrival which their maintenance guy sorted straight away. The only other issue I had was a duplicate room charge which unfortunately took a few days to sort but once I found the right person to deal with this it was all sorted. Would definitely return here again.

Very good

The hotel was beautiful and very boutique but the resort fee was extraordinarily expensive without additional amenities.

This is a beautiful boutique hotel in a very good location. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The bed was just okay but the restaurant and bar are great.
-
The room was impressive 1800s vibe, reminded me of my grandma's home. However the bathroom has some molds on some corners of the sink. I think an exhaust would help lessen that. Nevertheless, the whole stay was a pleasant experience and would luv to go back next time. And if you luv Korean stuff, this hotel is in the midst of Korea Town, and that is a treat!

From the moment I arrived, the front desk staff came across as cold and unwelcoming. I had requested an early check-in, but no effort was made to accommodate the request. The initial room I was assigned on the first floor had no window and felt dark and claustrophobic. To make matters worse, the air conditioning unit was extremely loud—comparable to a jet engine. While I was eventually moved to another room, the overall experience did not improve significantly. The cleanliness and condition of the property were also concerning. There was hair in the bathroom upon arrival, and the elevators were exceptionally slow and very small, making getting around the hotel frustrating. Overall, the hotel fell well below expectations in terms of service, comfort, and attention to detail.

Room 202 had a faux window where there was a lot of noise and light shining in the room at late hours.
-
The cleaning staff was good, but the room needed some updating. Cracked sink, stained sofa and worn out duct covers. There are only two old elevators-which add to the charm of the place—but are just an inconvenience when trying to get up and down during high traffic hours. Currently, most hotels have electric keys that also serve as a security feature for the main entrance and elevators, not here. You have the room key and anyone who comes in to the restaurant or bar can just get on the elevator and go up to the rooms.

The staff very friendly and the location is excellent; the room was too small
