6.0 Above average - Aishath 30-05-2025

Review: For the price it was okay, but we had issues as they did not have any bedsheets on the bed

1.0 Better avoid this place. Not recommended. - JACEK 19-10-2023

Positive points: Nothing

Negative points: No service, no cleaning even once during 4 nights stay, no maintenance, if you get noisy neighbors you cannot sleep, dirty, run down place and hugely overpriced. Breakfast is a joke. If You want to come to Myeongdeong , just get hotel outside with easy connection by bus or metro.

2.0 Terrible guesthouse so far - Zuraifah 14-05-2025

Review: I asked 4 times for the locations and other questions but NO reply from the property. The room does not have any bedsheets and undet the bed theres a loys of paper, tissues, bottle and even cotton buds. The kitchen wat not organised and the kitchen floor is sticky. The outside sitting area is dusty and pantues hanging there from the day we come until the next day. Please improve and it got potential.nnThe only good is that the room was ready early. However we check out after one night although booking for three nights.

1.0 Just don’t - christopher 17-09-2023

Positive points: I had my own room

Negative points: The hotel wasn’t clean and my room smelled. My room was full of mosquitos (I killed at least 10 before I went to bed) I woke up with bites and an infection in one arm. There was bed bugs, too. The staff was hiding away in a room downstairs and weren’t friendly, just wanted my money and give/take the key to my room. There was noise all night from other guest — I woke up multiples times due to misquotes and from guest dropping, or banging something, as well as talking. This occurred until 3am, then everyone wakes up at 6 am, so there is noise then, too. The walls are paper thin and the area is rough. I wanted to leave and stay somewhere else but nothing was available. My next day was rough because I had no sleep and an infection in my arm form a bite.

3.0 Although Disappointed ☹️ stay but pros & Cons. - Jinge 10-04-2023

Positive points: 1. Location at Myeongdong is a thumb up. It is very convenient to take subway or as a meeting point for a tour. n2. Heating pad is a plus to keep you warm.n3. Seoul milk taste good . Kitchen at basement is clean and thoughtful.

Negative points: The room smells very moldy and humid. Dark without any sunshine. It is not cheap when I pleased order. Not worth of value. nTurning on A/C dehumidifiers can make it improved but not much.nnWater leaked at sink. nnNo bath towels at room except you ask the staff.

10.0 Exceptional - Leonard 14-02-2025

Review: Nice

9.0 Excellent - John 26-12-2022

Positive points: Very clean, nice staff, friendly/family atmosphere. Overall good value and I liked that I didn't have to pay until check in, so I was able to use my Korean bank card.

Negative points: The walls/doors are very thin, and I could hear what other guests were doing in their rooms very easily. Also, my headboard wasn't secured to the bed frame, which was a bit odd.

9.6 Exceptional - Muhammad 12-02-2025

Review: Worth of price

3.0 You get what you pay for, but this is a bit much. - Kyle 20-10-2022

Positive points: There wasn't much to like about this place, other than its location.

Negative points: The room had a very musty smell. Mold was growing on the ceiling of both the main room and bathroom. When my wife and I went to eat breakfast, there was mold growing on the bread that was provided. The walls were also thin, so we could hear the other tenants. The biggest problem was that the staff couldn't be reached by either the number provided at the entryway, or the number on their listing.

Review: Affordable stay!

7.0 Don't expect exceptional value but just good value for the money. - Timothy 08-08-2022

Positive points: You get what you pay for. Location is really good. Subway station is nearby within a 10 minute walk. Staff was really helpful to fix any problems. I didn't have hot water at first but was able to get it turned on.

Negative points: Several things: 1. Room is quite small for the money you pay 2. Air conditioner wouldn't adjust fan speed and looked like it could be cleaned 3. Shower stall had visible mold around some places 4. Bed/mattress was not real comfortable. Not bad but not real good. Breakfast could've provided fruit and hard-boiled eggs though I understood it was continental. They provided cereal, toast, jam, peanut butter, coffee, and cup noodle. Walls a little thin so I could hear noise from other room and hallway, but fortunately other guests were not too loud. Just when they had entered hallway and their room
