HOTEL JAK Insadong by Aank

HOTEL JAK Insadong by Aank
3.0 star property
Jongno-1.2.3.4 ga-dong, 4.9 km from Dongdaemun-gu
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (3 reviews)
"Really enjoyed staying here and ended up extending for another night. For the price, this place is such a good deal. Free ramen, free coffee, free water, and everything feels super clean and new. Honestly hard to beat at this price point in Seoul. Check-in isn’t the most straightforward if you’re a foreigner, but there’s a help button and someone is always there to assist, so it wasn’t a big problem at all. Rooms are a bit small (pretty typical for Seoul), but totally fine for our stay....

"The soundproofing from outside wasn't very good. With the heater on, it was warm but dry, and with it off, it was extremely cold. The bathroom had good hot water, but the layout was awkward, and it was cold even with the heater on. The towels were really good quality, and all the facilities were clean."
