Staff was very nice and helpful. The location was very good with a view of Seoul Tower from room 508. For this price, the not-so-clean-looking room was very good. In my case, there were no bed bugs :)

Not exactly as shown in the photos. The room smelled a bit old, so I got room freshener. There was no hand soap, so I got some. The fridge was not so good. After showering, there were puddles of water in the bathroom, so I got myself a squeegee. All these things can be bought for 1-3€ each at Daisoo. For hygiene reasons, I bought shower slippers for 5,000 Won. If I showered in the evening, I had to leave the light on in the bathroom, as otherwise the fan in the bathroom would turn off. To get rid of the moisture, I left the light and fan on in the bathroom. But after closing the door, the light didn't bother me. There was no toilet brush, but I had no problem with that. For hygiene reasons, I got an all-purpose disinfectant cleaner from Daisoo for 3,000 Won and cleaned the bathroom quickly.

Great location and price. Staff is also very kind. Free breakfast is a plus. Everything you need is there, so it was my second time staying here. Would like to stay again.

The previous room had a window, but this time it was a room without a window. The ventilation was poor, so the slight smell bothered me a bit, and there was poor drainage in the shower, and there was mold in the room and shower. Still, considering the location and price, it's really good.

Very limited breakfast and the room facilities need maintenance.

The transportation is really convenient. Coming out of Exit 4 of Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station, it takes less than 5 minutes to walk and you will arrive immediately.

Stayed here for two nights, it was a hell. The hotel staff had a bad attitude, they saw us as foreigners but didn't say a word in English, communicated entirely in Korean. There was a power outage without notifying guests, the power went out at 8:40 in the morning until noon, and we only found out on the evening of check-in. Why were the pillows in the building pressed against the curtains, super disgusting. The floor was always wet, the walls were very dirty with unknown black stains, and the air conditioner on the ceiling had a lot of dust. The toilet did not have dry and wet separation, the water pipe connected to the sink fell off after the first person took a shower, and there were hairs where it fell off, super gross. Discussing with the hotel staff to change, they said they would come the next day to change, but we didn't see anyone coming to change the whole afternoon, and the hotel side said they did. Even if it was changed, it continued to fall off, and we had to stick it back ourselves. And sorry, what does it mean that room cleaning service is only available for stays of four days or more?? Your hotel is so dirty, do I need to stay for more than four days to tidy up? Completely missing the point. This is a super, super crappy hotel, with no advantages except for convenient transportation, and the price is not very cheap, the value for money is very low. I strongly do not recommend foreign travelers to stay here because the front desk staff don't bother to say a word in English 🙂

The only positive thing was that the Metro is nearby

It was an absolute shithole: mold in the whole bathroom, the white blanket had blood stains or holes on it, gummy floor, dirty walls, and a terrible smell.

When entering the room, there was a smell of smoke, and the floor looked a bit dirty, the fridge was very small
