Decent hotel with standard facilities. Suitable for short stay. Corridors are quite dark and rooms are not very sound proof so it may be quite noisy at night.

Finding this place was a little tricky. If you see Ramada Inn, go down the little road next to it and you will reach this place. I was satisfied with my stay. The bed was comfortable. In my room, I couldn't get the TV to work but then again, I didn't come to Seoul to watch TV so that issue was irrelevant. The hotel staff was also flexible in letting me check out early since my flight left early in the morning.

Fine for a night, for the price

I spent one night at this hotel. It was fine for a single night, and is very, very centrally located for access to the Dongdaemun Design Plaza, shopping in the area, etc. There are also several local restaurants on the small backstreet where the hotel is. However, I would not recommend it for more than a night, if you can afford to stay elsewhere. The room was dirty (as in old, and not redone), there was a moderately loud, high-pitched running water sound all night, my room did not have a window (others do though, I believe), and it smelled very slightly like it used to be a smoking room. Although it no longer is, that smell must have seeped into the room, which has clearly not been renovated for some time.

Smoking old hotel trying to survive

I booked a non-smoking room for 12 days. On our first day (Tuesday), they gave us a room with thick tobacco smell. I complained and they said its the only room available (yeah like i will believe that, its friday and off-season, hardly any hotel got full booked). I told them I do not care since I clearly stated a non-smoking room on my reservation notice and they claimed to be non-smoking hotel. His supervisor then check on computer, get up on elevator, after 2 minutes he called his friend to tell us check another room. I guessed the supervisor will use room deodorant before we checked it beforehand, and i was correct. The other room now overwhelmed with deodorant. The carpet has lots of cigarette burn, even in their plastic sink has cigarette burn. The room was the same situation as the first room except they use deodorizer. I gave up since we are tired with our 15 hours flight. We accepted the room, rest 1 hour before we start our vacation (the hotel on Dongdaemun and this is our first trip to Korea). Before we depart, we asked them to change the sheets of our room because we are going to stay there for 12 days. Assuming this is partly love hotel (below has small pub), we did not want to use others cement traced sheets. The receptionist hardly understand my english until the supervisor finally understand what I meant after 5th try. The rest of the days are ok, since we adapted with the smell which are getting better each day we stayed due to us non-smoker.
