Cozy and comfortable place to stay

The hostel is very welcoming and has offered snacks as small gifts upon check in and check out. There is complimentary breakfast everyday (toast and tea or coffee) which is heartening. They also offer laundry service at affordable fee per basket which is great, no need being too much luggage. Would like to commend a staff named 美成,very helpful and friendly to tourists. Room is a little small for 2 people but manageable. Overall is great and would consider staying again. (:

I enjoyed my stay at OYO hostel Myeongdong 1. I will most definitely return and get a private room. Having a private room made a big difference and I was able to get a good night’s sleep. It was a bit dated but still you get good value for your money in Seoul. It was also a quiet and safe place. I will recommend this property and several other OYOs in Seoul.

Location is the best. Right in the middle of myeongdong and 6 mins walk to bus and train. Food and shopping right downstairs. Rooms are small. Bathroom is toilet and shower in one. So if you need more space, may not be the best option for you. Travelled as a couple and we could navigate two large pieces with a carry on in the room i.e. take what you need and keep them closed to make space. Also, the rooms have heated floors and was very nice and comfortable in winter. Also, they have laundry services too.

It’s actually really near myeongdong station that has escalator excess. Plus just a turn in from the main shopping street in myeongdong. Do not trust google map to find it, use kakao or Naver map instead! It’s right above a bbq restaurant but no smell (in winter). Have to climb a small flight of stairs to excess the lift to the main floor though.

明洞の繁華街のど真ん中のホテル

場所は明洞で非常に便利。街中にも関わらず、騒音などほぼなく静かに眠れた。 ただ部屋はとてつもなく狭い。 そしてバストイレも狭い。 この価格でこの狭さか…と思った。 朝食の無料サービスがあり、2日とも利用した。チェックインとチェックアウト時にお菓子のお土産がもらえた。

極狭。ネタレベル。

先ず部屋の広さは写真の通りです。縦にベッドのみ(写真)。ドライヤー、スリッパなどの清潔感も人によっては難しいかと。タオルも足ふきタオルみたいなのが1枚。いくら円安とはいえ、、。良いのは立地です。

値段も安く部屋の広さなど期待はしていませんでしたが、キャリーケースを広げられるくらい広く、オンドル(韓国式床暖房)もついており寒いこともありませんでした。 スタッフの方も優しく笑顔で挨拶してくださいます。朝食は利用していないのでわかりませんが、軽く済ませる程度なら充分なメニューだと思います。 エレベーターに乗るまでに数段(5〜6段)、階段があるのでそこが気にならない方ならオススメします! チェックイン、チェックアウト時にプレゼントもありとても嬉しかったです♪

・立地は最高! ・朝食付き~食パンとジャム、フルーツジュースのみ、一度も利用しませんでした"(-""-)" ・ウニットバス?トイレの真横に仕切りなしでシャワーがついてるだけで、今まで宿泊したホテルでシャワーは最低でした(( _ )) シャワー浴びたら、トイレはびしょびしょ、床はびしょびしょで、水周りは最低点でした。 ・総評は、ホテルは寝るだけ、立地重視の人には◎ その他は△です。

チェックイン時に日本語で施設の説明の紙を頂けました。説明は英語でしたが難しい単語使われないので普通に対応出来る気がします。Wi-Fiも快適でした。対応は丁寧でした。 部屋はダブルを1人で使用したので広くて良かったです。隣の声はかなり聞こえますが、耳栓があればそれほど気にならないと思います。 タオルは廊下に設置しているボックスに入っているので不足する事もなく交換も24時間出来ました。 場所的に騒音がすごいかと思いましたが、フロアには全く外の音は聞こえず静かでした。場所が買い物や明洞の屋台に行くのにすごく良い場所でした。 隣の部屋の音とシャワーがトイレと一緒なため、使うのにコツがいる所以外は快適に過ごせました。窓がある部屋でしたが小さく、外の景色は見えない部屋でしたが、ほとんど外出していたので気になりませんでした。 歯ブラシやコップは備品では無いので持っていった方が良いですが明洞はコンビニや100円均一も多いので現地購入でも良いかと思います。
