    The bathroom was tiny and had mold on the title floors. My bed was wobbly, and the pillows were uncomfortable.

    The staff were very helpful and kind. The property is close to everything I needed and wanted. The location is the best thing about the property.

    You can feel the room is a bit dusty, with some stain on walls and dust on shelves. We tried to move two single beds to form one double bed and the floor was very dusty.

    Perfect location, just 2 mins walk from the bus stop to the airport. Nice Staff.

    They should remind customers of their cleaning routine upon checkin. They don’t clean your room on a daily basis.

    Clean bed and mattress - all I need for a room when travel. Good value! Efficient heater. No odour from the drain.

    Nothing I disliked to be honest. Except maybe the fridge that was being quite loud at times and the table and closet are a little small for two people.

    It was a really nice stay! Reasonable price, great location, clean and just everything you need. Room service provides you with free water, new towels, shampoo and everything else you might need. Staff was friendly and beds were comfy and you have an AC which is surely necessary during summer.

    The toilet gets really wet after each shower. but it is not a big issue.

    good location. it is very easy to find (a few minutes walk from Myeongdong exit 9 and about 10min walk to euljiro-1 ga (inner circle line). it is also very affordable. i managed to find this place at the very last minute, after being cancelled by Airbnb host. the place isn’t super fancy but it is fine since we are there to sleep. it comes with hair dryer and small towels, fridge and bottled water.

    Good location between the line 4 and line 2. I've spent a lot of time in Seoul but never stayed in myeongdong. Even though it is right in the busy night streets the rooms were quiet and comfortable

    The bathroom could be a tiny bit cleaner, but nothing truly problematic.

    Anytime we had an issue, the staff resolved it within 10 minutes. All issues we had were very small like the air unit getting stuck on heat, but the staff fixed it very quickly.

    Never staying here again; Dirty rooms, black mold.

    I would not recommend staying here. The room we stayed in was dirty, the walls and ceiling were covered in stains/squashed bugs. And the wallpaper was peeling off the walls. The bathroom had black mold everywhere. The sheets on the bed felt a bit greasy, and the pillows were very uncomfortable. The bathroom smelled bad and we tried to avoid spending time in the hotel as much as possible.. We eventually decides to check out early (without a refund) because we woke up with various (itchy and painful) red bumps on our arms. I’m 100% certain that I got them in the hotel room, because I found small blood stains on my sheets at arms height (they weren’t there yet when I went to bed the night before). I can’t be completely certain at what caused these.. But I would highly recommend steaming all of your luggage and bagging everything up after staying here!

    The hotel had a good location, most tours have a pickup point near the hotel. MRT, shops and restaurants are located nearby too.
