Very helpful and friendly staff

Good Location, near the subway station. Walking distance to some major attractions. Reasonable rate with breakfast already (same choices daily). Staffs were helpful. The room is compact but it worked out for us (Family of 3 with a kid). Even if it is compact very minimal noise coming from the outside so you could still have a peaceful rest. AC is good. Refill of water bottles daily. The only problem we had was the TV not working properly because it was not sync with the remote control provided. The staff tried to address it but still was not able to fix it. I just downloaded a universal remote control in our phone to use the TV. The area in the evening is like a night spot but before the drinking night crowd comes, try out some Korean BBQ stalls there. Their beef is so good.

Loved our stay. Very family friendly. The free breakfast was a bonus we didn’t expect would be as good as it was. Very clean and well maintained.

Location was great with easy walkability and access to subway and airport limo. The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The front desk helped my older parents make plans, navigate transportation, and gave great recommendations in both Seoul and Busan. One suggestion: towel hooks! Just somewhere to hang a towel in the bathroom would be great. Other than that, the place was perfect for our needs.

Staff very friendly I really recomend the hotel

This hotel is amazing! The staff is great and the breakfast is awesome! I live in America and I’ve never seen this kind of breakfast included at this price! Highly recommend!!

We only stayed here 1 night to attend to business we had in Insa-dong. This location is very convenient to walk to many areas around Insadong and Myeongdong. The breakfast was simple, but really good and appreciated. The beds were very comfortable. It was really good for one night for our family, and would be fine for a couple for multiple nights, but the room was too small for us to have stayed for a week. If it was just my husband and I it would work. This is a great place for couples on a budget though! Very good value for what you get!

Great choices of breakfast. Room is clean. Good location in a bustling area yet nestled inside a quiet lane off the busy street. It is close to Ikseo-dong and Insadong, and not far away from Myeondong and the Palace. Subway and buses are close too. It is in Jongno 3 ga area. Very convenient. The only strange thing is that the shower area is not walled/partitioned off from the toilet. So the whole bathroom floor gets wet after the shower. Also the room is a bit small.

SimpleStay Hotel really has allowed me to make the very most of the short time I've had in Seoul, and I can only thank the staff and owners so much for making the place comfortable, relaxing, and feeling like home. The booking process and checking in was simple, the rates are incredibly reasonable, and the room was more than I could have ever expected - so good, at times I had to make myself get up and explore the Jongno community the hotel is well positioned within. My room had the biggest television I've ever watched, with streaming service enabled; a mini-fridge; very comfortable beds (travelling solo, I had a double bed and an extra single bed in my room). The shower area, wash room, and toilet are all separate spaces. Self-check in is simple, but there are staff on the front desk to help you. The staff are able to provide insights into the restaurants and street food in the area around the hotel, while there is also a complementary breakfast provided, and a coffee machine in the reception by the front desk. In your room, there is also a kettle, coffee and tea, free Wi-Fi, and an art deco style modern phone that looks like the old dial type - loved it! There are laundry facilities available (2 washing machines and one dryer), which are simple to use, and very affordable. If it looks like you're struggling to use them (I was initially), a staff member was soon up there to help me. After that, no problems at all.
