8/10 Very good! (1,002 reviews)
"Room and everything was nice, but omg the noise! I understand hotel is at the bars area which is very nice and they give you ear plugs but it is 2026 and there are technologies to isolate such noise levels. For me was ok, but if you want to rest it would be difficult even with the ear plugs."

"I booked a junior suite in late August 2026. Overall the hotel was nice but noticed some wear and tear in the room itself. Nothing that serious though. The staff is friendly and promptly assisted when I asked for new towels. Also the location is great as it’s right next to Yongsan station."
