If you are coming up Seoul to party then this is a good hotel for you. The area offers a LOT of bars, night clubs, late night food. The hotel itself is decent and unkept with the exception of some strangely designed architecture and the bathroom.... There is a lack of storage or places to hang towels. Our biggest issue was the bathroom the shower toilet and sink are all within the same room with the shower spraying EVERYTHING and leaking under the small glass shower partition, this freaked me out a bit as of course there was a plug in for the bidet that water would leak to... It was a question if we're going to be electrocuted or not? I've been to Japan and this room was even smaller than hotels I stayed in there. So overall if you pack light and like partying this be a good place for you. I don't think I would recommend this area for solo female travelers it felt sketchy. Parts of the hotel were also under renovation so I'm not sure what amenities were actually available. They are supposed to have a spa and coffee/restaurant but that was not available to my knowledge. However, the staff were accommodating and overall friendly enough. But we would not stay here again

A great spot near lots of lovely cafes and restaurants. Great to go out to eat in this vibrant space at 12 midnight arrival after our long flight. We really enjoyed our stay and liked the convenience store at the bottom of the building. Beds were comfy and I never heard the neighbours at all. Room was small but worked for us.

N285 Hotel was beautiful and worth it for the price. Conveniently located in Insadong, close to train station, many shops/cafes near by, and walking distance to the Gyeongbokgung Palace. Room and property were very clean and staff were pleasant and helpful.

Very good location for a budget hotel. Staff have a good understanding of English so communication was an ease for me. The rooms are a bit smaller than I am used to but this was a base for me to rest tired feet after exploring. Bathroom came with a full bidet system like japan so this was a nice surprise ! For anyone that loves to walk and explore, the hotel is approximately 30min walking pace to myeongdong night market/Myeongdong Cathedral. 20mins to Kwangjang market. (Time will vary based on your own walking speed) Comments: the bathroom door handle was a bit loose so please get someone to get this fixed for that room.

This place is extremely small. I was only 1 person in this room, I couldn’t imagine staying here with another person. There’s no space for luggage, I had to open it on the couch. The bathroom is tiny. The glass between the shower and toilet do nothing. Absolutely everything gets drenched. They don’t even give you soap at the sink cause I presume they just want you to turn around and use the body wash. Towels, extra TP etc are all kept outside of the bathroom cause everything will get drenched. Fridge barely gets your drinks cold and there’s no way to adjust the temperature. Room was clean, bed was alright. I would not stay here again based on what I paid.

Insadong is in the art and diamond district, theres plently of shops and souvenirs around, plus restaurants too. The hotel is tucked away a little and can feel a little unsafe for the short walk along the pavement if you are alone. There are lights, though. The cafe area in the lobby was shut, but it is attached to a 'CU' which is similar to 7eleven. Theres a massage place in the lower ground floors and a lot of close transport connections. I asked for my room to be made up 10 minutes after the cleaners were meant to have finished at 3pm, but when I came back later that day they had cleaned my room which was so lovely! You get 2 bottles of water a day and they also give slippers and robes which is not something I expected. Great bonus. I didn't really enjoy the wet room since there was only 1 mirror in the room and it was in the bathroom. The wetroom got everything wet when you went in the shower. The room was a little tight around the bed and the wall to get round to the couch area and table, but not a big problem for me. Overall, it was a really nice place and I would go back if I wanted to stay in the same neighborhood.
