Great location to stay

The staff were helpful and the location is very convenient for me.

While they do attempt to clean the room, it is actually not very clean. The bathroom still had hair on the floor and the walls had stains from previous shampoo and toothpaste. The kitchenware was not properly cleaned either.

Very good

Great location, directly in between 2 Metro Stations (Gangnam and Yangjae), 20 minutes into City, and most tourist attractions. Express-Bus 6009 from Incheon Airport (direct) stops about 300 meters from the hotel. Show the address to the driver. He'll tell you where to exit, don't get out at Gangnam station, or you'll have to walk longer! Express-Bus terminal to other cities 4 Metro stops away. The apartment comes fully equipped with a gas stove, electric kettle, dishes, air conditioning, and a proper bath with a real shower cabin. This all for a great price: the total package could hardly be better, esp. in Seoul.

There's potential for improvement regarding the cleanliness. We found so many hairs from strangers in our bath that we called for another cleanup from the service. The towels and sheets were stained so we asked for a change. Service came and "helped out" within a few minutes, but the "new" towels and sheets were stained as well (though clearly fresh from the laundry and pressing service). During the week, towels were changed daily and never looked good. Otherwise, we would have kept them. In the end, we used our own. Staff at the front office ranged from professional "I don't care" to super friendly and "happy to see you". Unfortunately, we had the friendly one at the checkout... Our Korean is not worth mentioning, but communication was possible via App. ...would have expected a bit more english, at least in a hotel in Seoul-Gangnam. Anyway, still great price - value ratio. We'll give it another try if we come back to Seoul (maybe with better Korean) and can definitely recommend Urban Place Gangnam.

Come Here 🛏️

Urban Place is perfect for Gangnam tourists. The hotel is clean, staff speaks English and is very friendly, and it's close to public transportation. Come here!

dust everywhere and no privacy from the cleaning person

location

very unclean, dust everywhere all over the bathroom, some mold, and clumps under the bed. the lock on the door didn’t work and the first night we couldn’t find the do not disturb hanger for the door - just before 10:00 am the cleaning person opened the door and started to walk in as I shouted no no no several times and tried to dress myself, she didn’t close the door and leave despite seeing me upset and distressed from being walked in on and proceeded to insist to give towels and smiled like she had no idea she had breached our privacy. it was bizarre and extremely uncomfortable. the front desk workers were lovely otherwise. we’d never stay there again.

Say a 5.5 out of 10 would be fair, price too high for what’s offered.

All in all this is a well located place, however the price is too high for what’s on the offer. For one in need of privacy and ok conditions, it does the job! Mind you, they don’t offer shuttle from/to the airport while the floors are very smelly full of all sort of leftovers placed at the doors for some reasons. It’s not too attractive outside the rooms but once inside, yeah it’s ok, while also having a kitchenette which is handy while travelling and the cleanliness is ok.

If you are on a budget and would like to do cooking in your hotel room, this isn't a bad place.

Excellent location. Convenient price.

Cleanliness was on the lower side. I was told at the front desk to buy a toothbrush and other amenities from them. It was not a hotel, but a one room apartment.

Very good

The bedding was comfy enough to sleep. The room was quite:) The location of the hotel is good as well.

It is undergoing the ground floor renovation, so the temporary reception is running in a small room. It's very busy at the check-out. The noise you will hear during the day I guess.
