The room was clean and with airconditioning, but the main light started flickering at times during the last day. The bathroom is a wet room where also the sink is not connected but water goes down into the main drain of the room. The structure is advertised with having laundry facilities, also confirmed by staff through chat, but when there I was told that there wasn’t any laundry facility. Staff was never present, except cleaning staff in the morning. Check-in consists in picking up your key layed out on the counter with a post it with your name on it. Water, extra towels, microwave and cutlery was self service and very useful. Overall it wasn’t bad for the location near the metro and shops around it and also considering that we only needed the room to sleep as we were always wondering outside.

It was a run down old hotel next to Namdaemoon Market. Conveniently located close to the subway station and many restaurants and stores. We found a cockroach in the room on the first day. The sink water was coming out of the pipe and wetted the bathroom floor for draining. The bathroom had a strange odor. The staff was never at the front desk. It was good to have supplies by the front such as a free towel change, chopsticks, toothbrushes etc. The air-conditioning was working well in the hot humid summer.

安いけど

近々のソウルホテルが高すぎるので、こちらに滞在。 旅行にはおすすめしません。 不潔感はありませんが、女性にはいかがなものか。 南大門で、仕事の方は近くて便利です。地下鉄駅もすぐです。空港リムジン6015で、すぐ近くにあります コンビニは通りに二軒あり、便利。 まあ安く旅慣れた方や出張で寝るだけでいいならば。
