I had a fantastic stay at Mini Hotel Insa. The location was perfect, being just a short walk to both Anguk Station and cultural sites like Changdeokgung Palace, though I did find the roads around a bit bumpy (classic Seoul!). The room was quiet and cozy, which I appreciated as a light sleeper. Overall, the hotel provides great value for money, especially with its friendly service.
