Positive points: Cost, room size, location
Negative points: Bathroom needs a bit of touch up
Review: Ok
Positive points: The location of the hotel could not be any better, right in the centre of Myeongdong. Transportation through the city was a breeze through transport and walking distance. Would recommend!!!
Negative points: None
Positive points: The location is very good, easy to commute to many key places in Seoul, walkable distance to Myeongdong street and the hotel staffs were also very helpful.
Negative points: The cleanest (a lot of dust) and room condition can be improved.
Positive points: I had a great stay at this hotel! rnThe bed was super comfy, and I really appreciated having a safe in the room for my valuables. rnThe place was clean, and the location was perfect for visiting nearby temples and attractions. rnI also liked that they had snacks and drinks available on the first floor, and the microwaves on each floor made it super convenient to heat up food.rnI recommend !!!
Review: Arrived at the hotel around 6pm and was told that the room was not available for check-in (was asked to wait 2hours) overall Staff have attitude, they rather give you a weird look and we did not feel welcome during our 4 nights stay. Local friends told us that this “hotel” is more like a motel, so hence the check-in issue. Will not return again.
Positive points: The Russian speaking guy that cleans the floors (Vladimir) was amazing and helpful.
Negative points: Photos are catfish. Rooms are small. Staff speaks ZERO english. Horrible.
Review: Comfortable but not the cleanest and not exactly the most convenient location. Bathroom gets entirely wet during showers as there is no dry and wet area.
Positive points: Nothing
Negative points: So dirty in the room. This is so called love motel, not even a hotel where you can rent a room for several hours during the day. This is not definitely a place for tourists. If you are a budget tourist, please go to a hostel or cube bed place. You don't want to hear any strange noise during the day waiting for the elevator. I saw bunch of fallen hair and hair band next to the bed. When I complained to the receptionist, he said how clean is in the eye of the beholder. The bed was stone stiff, hurting my back.
Positive points: Kind staff and location, affordable accommodation, provided chargers …
Negative points: Surrounded with dirty environments, not clean bed covers, tiny room..the photos look amazing but different in reality.
Positive points: The location is great. The room we ended up in was nicely designed, in theory, although the wetroom bathroom didn't drain.
Negative points: Very dusty, not very clean but much better than our first room, which wasn't clean, felt very old and rundown, and smelled bad. We had to change, which they quickly accommodated and the second room was significantly better, if still not great. This place is really nice in theory, but is just not well maintained or cleaned. And the shower flooding the bathroom indefinitely every time you use it is pretty annoying.
Review: Great location near public transport, airport bus location, surrounded by street food and restaurant, also within walking distance to In-Sadong.
Negative points: The bed was super firm but that might be a Korean standard
Review: It’s goodnLocation to stay
