We stayed at the Prima three times during our trip to South Korea. Each time staff were extremely helpful and considerate. It is ideally placed to explore Seoul, close to the metro, airport bus, great coffee shops, shopping streets and close to the contemporary history museum, Deoksugung Palace, markets and the Cheonggyecheon Stream walk. The room was clean and the air conditioning worked really well.

Pretty good stay, really enjoyed it Owner/Manager were very attentive and flexible. Room lends itself for a great sleep. Had good airco in the heat of the summer. Benefits from central location. Good, cheap restaurants around the corner. Metro very close. Comfortable though -like everything in Seoul- very packed and comes at a steep price. (Smaller cities are much cheaper and have more rooms.) Really enjoyed our stay here. I give high marks as I would like to support the owner. Only expect a basic, affordable tourist hotel so your expectations are fully met.

It was a very good deal for a budget traveller considering the location, it's perfect and easy access to almost everywhere and everything. For an Asian like me, the room's size was just enough. Special thanks to the staff who let me checked in early coz I wasn't feeling well. Will stay here again if I'm traveling solo to Seoul again. :)

Money for value a great deal. Location is hard to beat as it's in Myeongdong's heart and connects to many tourist sights even in walking distance, has plenty of bus and metro connection in proximity too. A great start into Seoul on a budget. It was clean and tidy. Free drinking water in the kitchen and other amenities.

This is a very good budget place. It is well managed, spotlessly clean, excellent location, nice staff. The accommodation style is ‘goshiwon’ - very basic and cheap. So you get what you pay for.
