Everything was excellent. The only bad thing was that I couldn't bring friends or family to my room when I paid so much money to stay for 9 nights and 10 days. They have to improve on that, but afterward everything was wonderful.

The location is perfect as it’s near enough central to the main shopping area. The staff were friendly and while there was a language barrier they showed no frustration. As the hotel is in a building with other businesses a couple of restaurants to be exact I was able to meet people. Felt completely safe I smoke and would go outside at 1pm-3pm as I sometimes suffer from insomnia and never once felt at risk- I am aware not everyone may have this experience but for me the location the facilities and the people were perfect.

Staff didn't seem so friendly and accommodating. Wish they were to make my stay enjoyable and comfortable. I would come in and out of the hotel and the person at the front desk always looked stressed and did not give at least a smile or a nod. If you just need a place to sleep, this place is good as it is conveniently located INSIDE the myeongdong shopping street, with lots of dining options outside of the hotel.

Not really a hotel

The customer service is very unfriendly. There is nothing much in this hotel. Its just for sleeping and bathing. i have 3 hotels on this Seoul Trip and i think this is the worst. the towels are very yellowish not white anymore. The toilet is very small its like you shower area and toilet area are together. They dont clean the room during 5days stay. While my other accomodation they clean everyday.

Worst “hotel”

This place was not as expected at all. Check in is exactly at 3pm, no one will even be at the counter a minute prior. While I was checking in there was so much construction going on and wires hanging from the ceiling. The hotel is near a cosmetic surgery facility, so the rooms are being used as recover stays for patients. No actual visitors are staying there. They don’t provide actual towels. They only give you a small face towel. The restrooms are located are public, so any business on that floor has access to it! I was so uncomfortable, I ended up leaving a couple hours after check in. I wish I could get a refund!

Only has public washroom but great location

CONS: The front desk guy is very rude. Always cuts me off when I am speaking. Knocks and comes into the room to turn off AC even if I was still in the bedroom. I talked to him about it but he kept doing that. I even asked if the use of AC is timed, he said no. But he still went in to turn it off, multiple times. NO SHARED WR(Toilet) FOR DORMITORY. This hostel is on the 4th floor of a commericial building. There are other offices in the bldg so you will be using public toilet because they only have wash area inside the dormitory. PROS: Great location. It is in the heart of Myeongdong. Clean dormitory.

Very disappointing

First of all, the location could not be better! It is a short walk from lines 2 and 4 and close enough to the main Myeongdong hub without being too affected by the noise. Unfortunately, that was really the only positive I had about staying here. I had to wait in the reception while the worker behind the desk showed guests around which wasn’t very necessary. The rooms are extremely tight which was never much of an issue but, because there are no windows, it was far too warm. We were not allowed to put the air con any lower than 25 degrees which didn’t make much difference and people would switch it off through the night. The bedroom light also stays on throughout the night and the curtain does not do a great job at blocking the light so I did not get a full nights sleep for the entirety of my 4 night stay. My biggest negative would be that the

お値段相当です。 タオルだけは絶対に改善された方がいいと思います。 3泊4日で毎日タオルを置いて下さっていましたが、使い回しなのか汚れも目立っていて、そんなことならタオルはオプション購入にされた方がいいかと思います。 また、小さいタオルでした。バスタオルは無し。 他の口コミ拝見して私もダイソーで何枚かタオル買いました。 また、シャワーやドライヤーの威力は問題なかったのですが、シャワーが温水になったり冷水になったり、かなりしんどかったです。 結構長い間冷たい水の時もありました。 ただ、宿泊女性エリア、ドミトリーベッド部屋ごとにナンバーロックがあり、安心しやすかったです。 15時前はスタッフ居らずチェックインはできず、キャリーを4Fホテル横のロッカーやロッカー付近に放置、という感じです。 ロッカーは手荷物しか入らないようなサイズで、キャリーはその辺に一時置いておきました。 シャワールーム、キッチンエリアは1:00〜6:00は使えないので、もう少し遅くまで遊びたかったのが残念ですが、ドミトリーですし仕方ないかな、と。 ただ、全体的に掃除がかなり行き届いていて そこは気持ちよく利用できました。 防犯カメラもかなり設置されているので安心。 シャワールームは、5部屋程×4人に対して、3ブースでしたが、案外被ることはあまりなかったです。

明洞のDAISO本店からまっすぐ行った所にあります。立地めっちゃいいです。2人部屋ドミトリーに泊まりました。韓国のホテルはたまに部屋が臭い?のですがここは問題ありませんでした。お布団も臭くなかったです。テナントビルを何店舗か借りてる感じの作りで、フロントでチェックインして女性専用ドミトリーのテナントまで行く感じです。なので廊下ではなく、フロアの共用スペースを移動します。同じフロアにはマッサージ店や美容クリニックがありました。お手洗いもフロアの共用トイレを使います。トイレットペーパーは流せないタイプのお手洗いです。でも綺麗でした。シャワー室は3つ並んであり、スリッパを履いて浴びるタイプです。お湯の出は不安定です。一度1番手前のシャワー室に入ってお湯が出るのを待ちましたが全然出なかったので諦めました。せめて顔だけでも洗おうと洗面台でお湯を出したら出たので(笑)、違うシャワー室で改めて浴びました。お湯の温度は熱くなったり冷たくなったり一定ではないので、根気良く使ってください(笑)部屋では水以外の飲食禁止なのでキッチンスペースに行き飲食しますが、キッチンスペースでの会話は響きます。耳栓の用意をお勧めします。チェックアウトは無人で「チェックインの時に渡したカードキーをここに入れてください」でチェックアウトとなります。が、ドミトリータイプのお部屋はカードキーありません。なのでなにもせずチェックアウト😅防犯カメラに写ってるので何かあったら連絡してくると思います。古さや不便さははあるものの、立地はいいしお安いので良いかと思います。斜め前にはオリヤン、コンビニも近くご飯屋さんもたくさんあります。お手洗いが不便なのと洗面台が共用なのと、部屋で飲食できない点がありますが、友人2人で2人部屋に泊まって更に旅程にスパが入るならアリかと思います。
