“Gwanghwamun's shilla stay”
On a convenient quiet-in-the-bustle spot — Gyeongbokgung and Myeongdong walkable, bus and metro near, the 6002 airport bus three minutes off — Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun (Myeongdong) is a good second-stay stay: a compact fully-equipped room, a good living environment, warm timely daily cleaning, full L'Occitane amenities and family-friendly sightseeing access. One nit: centrally-controlled AC that ran less flexible for one guest.
