My family and I really enjoyed the week that we spent at the Step Inn. By U.S standards our room was rather small with a double bed, bunk bed, small storage area, small bathroom, TV, cube refrigerator, and not much else There's so much going on in Myeongdong and Seoul that we really didn't spend much time in the room other than to sleep. The staff was very helpful and nice. Even though the street outside was noisy, the room was quiet. The A/C worked great, which was appreciated in July. The beds were firm but comfortable. The Step Inn is very close to the Catholic Cathedral, lots of shopping and restaurants. It isn't that far from two subway stations on two different lines, and the Lotte department store. We saw Superman at the Lotte Cinema in English with Korean subtitles. At night, there are food stalls all along the street. A simple breakfast is included. We would definitely stay at the Step Inn again. Happy travels everyone!
