Review: decent hotel for its price, shower is a bit low

6.0 Nice location in a basic room - Débora 05-06-2025

Positive points: The location is great! And it’s kind of a hostel, so on the 3rs floor there are a lot of things, like washing machine, coffee machine, fridge and a useful kitchen

Negative points: It felt a bit dirty, it smelled like heavy cleaning stuff.

4.0 Acceptable - Anonymous 05-06-2025

Positive points: It has a pretty good location.

Negative points: The staff was not there for check in. We waited quite a while as their self check in didn't work. The room didn't have a window while in the picture it indicated windows. Nobody cleaned the room during 10 days we stayed and there was water drainage in the bathroom. I think the staff could pay more attention to this.

9.6 Exceptional - RUBILIZA 20-05-2025

Review: The purpose of my trip was to attend a medical conference. I just need a good place to sleep, take a bath, and do some research documentary work. The set up of the hotel worked for me. The only drawback is the uphill location. But it is workable. :-)

6.0 Good location, but small room - SZE 22-05-2025

Positive points: Location was decent, within walking distance from shopping in myeongdong and myeongdong subway station. Bed was fairly comfortable, room was decently clean

Negative points: You have to walk uphill to this hotel, so for those dragging huge luggages might have to take note. Room was really small, but for this price in this location, i think the price is fair. Toilet had a slighty unpleasant smell, and the toilet walls were moldy.

6.0 Spacious area - Cathy 12-05-2025

Review: Accomodation very close to public transport and spacious rooms with communal kitchen well stocked. Easy self check in facilities. nnCons- room has cockroaches inside however customer service was efficient. The next day it was throughly cleaned.

6.0 Good value for price, great location - Giulia 01-05-2025

Positive points: The property is very conveniently located, close to Myeongdong station and easily accessible. It has coffee shops, supermarkets and anything you might need nearby. For this price it was good value.

Negative points: Rooms don’t have windows and are therefore very humid and moldy. You can hear everything from the hallway so just make sure to bring earplugs. nThe biggest concern though was safety. I feel like anyone at anytime could walk in the structure, and most importantly, anyone could’ve checked in our room before us. Speaking from a solo traveler point of view, security here ie concerning and should be better thought out.

8.0 It was a great stay - Jennifer 07-01-2025

Positive points: It is very conveniently located in Myeongdong and bus/train stations. However I had a hard time finding the name of the hotel using maps. I couldn't really rate the staff since I was not able to meet them during our stay, nevertheless all our needs are there. The self checkin and out are also simple and easy.

Negative points: One thing I can think of is that there are no towels (only small ones available)

10.0 Exceptional - Joyce 06-05-2025

7.0 Very good - Afsana 21-10-2024

Negative points: the room was smaller than expected

9.2 Budget hotel myeongdong - Gordon 26-04-2025

Review: Nice budget hotel in myeongdong. No elevator, but has free use of washer and dryer, kitchen with microwave and filtered hot and cold water. No maid service, you bring out your own garbage and exchange your towels. But for the price, you can not go wrong. Save your money here and enjoy Seoul at reasonable prices.

10.0 Grest value, location and facility - Glenn 11-09-2024

Positive points: Super quiet aeea but close to everything. Easy automated cgeck-in and super clean facility. The bed was more comfortable than many $$$ hotels

Negative points: Nothing

8.8 Budget hotel myeongdong - Gordon 19-04-2025

Review: Great value hotel in myeongdong, Seoul. You take out your own garbage and get your own towels, but for the price, the hotel is of great value in myeongdong. Use line 4 to get here and exit 4 is closes to the hotel.

10.0 Amazing place great location. - Sharon 24-07-2024

Positive points: The property was amazing. It was close to the train station and a night market. They provided umbrellas when it was raining. Self check in/out. Towels and toilet paper was available to refill by your self. Laundry are available to use.

Negative points: Nothing

8.4 Excellent hotel in myeongdong - Gordon 15-04-2025

Review: Great hotel for the price, much cheaper than other hotels in myeongdong, Seoul. Only thing is you change your own towels and take out your garbage every day. My only other issue is no elevator so you must carry your luggage up the stairs. Rooms are small, but you can't beat the price for a hotel room in myeongdong, Seoul.

9.0 Will recommend this hotel for the price, service, and excellent location to night market and shopping. - Dieu 13-06-2024

Positive points: Love free washer and dryer usage. Love the waterfall shower, shared kitchen usage, perfect location near Myeongdong, and most of all, the exceptional service by the staff John. He assisted us with transportation and even arranged a van for us to the airport. Greatly appreciate his hospitality and patience. Many thanks!

Negative points: The mattresses make noise when you turn or move.

10.0 Strategic Area - Fa'iz 26-03-2025

6.0 Above average - Daniel 13-04-2024
