Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Place is small and they lied to me that it was king beds. After paying and getting to the room it was too small for my children to sleep in the bed and they refused to refund my money. I spoke with the manager and he acknowledged his rep/co worker lied and still he refused to cancel. They kept my money and my children and I had to leave and find somewhere else to stay. They ruined day one of my vacation and robbed my $500 USD

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very friendly, professional, and accomodating staff. I stayed in a single-bed room (as a solo traveler) for 5 nights. Worked for me as I was out exploring the area most of the time. The hotel is in an excellent location, close to parks and shopping malls. It's also about 15 minutes from Meongdong, which I didn't know upon booking the room. Meongdong is a fun touristy place to walk around and try street food. The single rooms in the hotel are quite compact, so if you are planning to travel with others and/or be inside for lengthy periods, perhaps opt for a larger space. Still, I was very comfortable--bed, bathroom, shower etc. all was well-kept and clean. I also paid for breakfast each morning at a very reasonable price. They offer buffet style with many options. I am vegetarian and was able to get my fill of eggs, fruit...and coffee. I will plan to stay here again when back in the area. Many thanks.

I stayed at this hotel mainly because of its convenient location — being within walking distance to Myeongdong, Dongdaemun, and Cheonggyecheon. In that regard, the location is excellent. However, the experience overall was disappointing. The hallways had no ventilation at all, so the air was stale and the temperature was uncomfortably hot. The room itself was extremely small. While the air conditioning worked, it was too strong — it actually felt cold, and there was no way to adjust the temperature. There was a laundry room, which was convenient, but for a hotel with over 240 rooms, having only one washer and one dryer was simply not enough. It felt like there was no real consideration for guests’ needs. When I entered my room, I found leftover makeup stains from the previous guest and dirt at the bottom of the trash bin. It was clear that the room hadn’t been cleaned properly. On top of that, the drain near the laundry area smelled terrible, likely because it hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. I stayed here for two nights as a way to slightly cut down on costs during my month-long trip in Europe. But looking back, I wouldn’t stay here again. Even at a similar level, I’d say Toyoko Inn offers a much better experience in terms of cleanliness and guest care. If the ventilation and cleanliness were improved, this hotel could be a good choice given its location. But as it stands, I can’t recommend it if you value space and cleanliness, this may not be the right choice

Overall I had a good stay. For the price, it was a great choice. I think they can improve on keeping the rooms a bit cleaner. My room was dusty on the desk and there was hair on my bed. There were a lot of marks on the wall which made the room look dirtier than it actually was. Also it looked like there was a lobby bar/cafe on Expedia’s pictures, but it was closed the whole time I was there. I may have considered other hotel options if I had known that. The best part by far is the rooftop terrace with great views that is open 24 hours. A great place to bring a group of friends or sit by yourself, have a drink and enjoy city and mountain views of Seoul. The staff were also friendly. In general, a good option if you’re traveling on a budget, but if you have a little extra to spend, you may want to consider other options in Dongdaemun area, especially if offer similar rooftop views.
