Delightful boutique hotel for a reasonable price in Koreatown!

The lobby was absolutely lovely. There is a baby grand piano and an antique typewriter available for guests to use. There are bookshelves full of old books available for reading and plenty of comfortable seating to use while you relax in the lobby. Every evening the hotel provides a complimentary wine tasting.

The rooms are cute and clean! Comfortable pillows and I particularly loved the deep bathtub! Each room has a mini fridge and TV. Unfortunately the TV lost signal frequently, and the fridge wasn't very cold, but neither of these were enough of a bother to effect my stay.

The location was perfect if you want to be in Koreatown! The hotel is next to Mape Kkak Doo Gee, which has great grilled mackerel! Electric scooters are regularly found outside the hotel entrance, which provide an easy way to see neighborhood (especially when it's 100 degrees and you're determined to explore the city anyway).

At $22 parking was a little expensive. However this is the same of you stay one night or several, so it quickly becomes affordable over a long time. The parking was across the street, but there was a loading zone in front of the hotel.
