The walk to the station was a bit difficult due to the many market shops, but the room itself was convenient and I was able to stay comfortably. The refrigerator contained water and something like Real Gold, which I appreciated. The shower was also spacious. The building is quite old, but it was very clean!

For the money this is just a great place! The location is great, the room is stylish and comfortable, the cleaning is good. But it depends on which floor you go to and which administrator. On the fourth floor the rooms are much newer, on the fifth they are already shabby. The first time they checked into room 4 without any problems, the second time the administrator gave me a bad room for room 5, and when asked to change, she blatantly said that rooms for room 4 are only rented out to couples for hourly rent. The next day, another admin calmly moved me to the 4th floor and even to the same room that I asked for, for which I thank him very much! I think management should pay attention to the adequacy of its employees. Respect to grandpa admin!

It's within walking distance of Dongdaemun, although it takes a little while. I had a late check-in due to other plans, but the self-check-in at the kiosk made the process smooth. The rooms are a bit small, but the hotel is clean and comfortable.

Location: The location is very convenient, with direct subway access to Gimpo Airport and KSPO. Namsan Tower is also right nearby.
Hygiene: Overall, it was very good. The hotel interior was also clean.
Usage: Every time I wanted to use the elevator, I had to scan a new QR code that popped up to get it to work. Since I used it frequently, I found it a bit cumbersome, but it definitely makes it much more secure.
Facilities: I booked a bunk bed and I was on the top bunk. At first, climbing up hurt my feet, and then I realized the ladder was rusty and broken. However, since I was only there to sleep at night and was out all day, I didn't bother changing rooms. So, you might want to take some time to inspect it. The second picture might show it more clearly.

Overall, pretty good! The bathrooms could use some renovation.
The host is cool and fun – she speaks Chinese and Korean, but not much English. No worries, a translator app will help you out.
The location is a bit far from the city center. It takes about 40 minutes by bus to get downtown. The hotel is on a hill, surrounded by mountains, with clean air. It's about a 10-minute walk from the bus stop to the hotel, up a steep slope, but it's not too bad.
Anyway, if you prefer to stay in a private room, this is the best option for the price in Korea, rather than renting a bunk bed in a hostel downtown or near the city for the same cost.

Wonderful motel near 3 metro stations. We spent here a great week. As many reviews said, it's host is a helpful and kind woman. She let us wash all our clothes in her washing machine and a dryer twice. She treated us with fruits and gave juice cans. She even got up at 4:30 AM to say good bye!
The room is small, but cozy and clean, with a fridge and a warm sheet on a bad, the bathroom is clean too. A microwave and a cooler are in the hall.
We like this place and thank the amazing host!

This place is pretty great. Hosted by a kind Korean gentleman (zero English) who is attentive to detail and ready to help when asked. Narrow staircase up to the 2nd floor rooms. Door security is lock and key, neighborhood is quiet and safe (like everywhere in Seoul), though you may hear the subway trains a little bit at night. Separate bathroom (wet room) has towels, hair and body cleansers, a shower head attached to the same faucet as the sink, toilet paper, a mirror and of course western commode. Host provided a useful waterproof vanity bag with toothbrushes, toothpaste, razor and more. The room itself has barely enough space for the bed and your feet, but it did contain a desk and seat, window (no view), small refrigerator with 2 waters 2 juices and 2 cups, a computer (didn't use), TV and air conditioner both working on the same remote, bug spray, hair dryer and a few hair products, 2 more towels, box of tissues, a mirror and a hot water pot, all in good working condition. Less than 150 meters from the metro station entrance as well as bus services, and it was just about the best price I could find in Seoul. All in all I would stay here again and can firmly recommend it

Low price is merit.
The cleaning was satisfactory.
However, it was a pity that the dryer was weak and it took a long time to dry my hair.
The location was great because there were many shops around the motel.

討討伐中的吉伊Location is excellent, convenient for subway or bus, including airport bus. Lots of dining options and shopping areas nearby. The hotel facilities are probably getting old. Some issues with the water tap, sometimes water kept running out even it’s closed, though the staff solved it fast. The room and corridor outside is a bit dark. You will always hear music from the street during daytime, but night time it is okay, not sure if it’s becoz I stayed during weekdays, so the music didn’t last till midnight and it won’t affect sleep.

GGuest UserHave been to Seoul many times now but it was my first time staying in Insadong. Convenient location, where first floor connects to the Insadong alley and also near bus stops and the train station.
Double room was spacious for a single person, and I believe it would be spacious enough for 2 too.
Amenities in the room are standard, like what you’d find in most hotels.
There’s a coin laundry room, 4,000krw to wash/dry respectively. Overall design of the hotel was
very tasteful.
Only thing I noticed was a corner of the bedsheet being slightly stained when I arrived on my first night, but nothing else that I’d deem negative for this hotel.
Would definitely recommend to others.

GGuest UserThe hotel boasts convenient transportation. You can take the airport bus to and from the airport, and the drop-off point is also where you catch the return bus, which is super handy. I took bus 6015 and got off at Myeongdong Station. After getting off, you'll see Subway Exit 8. Head towards Exit 8, and at the first intersection, turn right and walk straight. (Make sure you don't go past the CU convenience store; it's actually right opposite Exit 8.) It's quite close, just a few hundred meters walk. The hotel is also very close to our embassy, which gave me extra peace of mind. Every morning, I could see the embassy from my window seat. The room was a bit small; opening a 28-inch suitcase made it feel a bit cramped, but the hotel's cleanliness was good. The soundproofing was excellent; even though it's in lively Myeongdong, it was very quiet at night, which was fantastic.

AAnonymous UserLoved the location, close to metro and there’s a convenience store onsite. Room was bright, spacious, clean, had well built storage spaces. Gym was spacious, clean and new. Washing machine and dryer in room. The service staff were very polite and helpful.
The only thing that I thought could be improved on was perhaps the hotel providing some free laundry detergent. It’s not expensive to purchase from the front desk (krw 1000) but it’s a hassle to have to go down to purchase it. It’ll be nice and much more convenient if they just provide enough for a use or two in the room.

GGuest UserThe hotel's location is excellent. It's very close to Sinsa Subway Station, and if you stick to the main road, there's no steep hill like some photos online might suggest.
It's right next to Seoul Forest, and you can walk to Apgujeong in about 10-15 minutes. There's also a three-story Olive Young just a few minutes' walk from the hotel, which is super convenient! While the rooms aren't huge, the soundproofing is pretty good, and the shower water pressure is absolutely fantastic!
If you stay here, definitely make sure to check out the cafe on the top floor – the views are amazing. Overall, highly recommend. (Pics 1 & 2: Hotel rooftop cafe/bar. Pics 3 & 4: Views from the room)

YYan-ZhengThis hotel is super close to Seoul Station, accessible from either Exit 1 or 7 (see picture 4). We had an overnight layover before catching the KTX, so staying here was incredibly convenient. You can even walk here along the Seoullo 7017 Skygarden. Plus, there's Lotte Outlets and a supermarket nearby for some shopping. We booked a family twin room with a queen bed (1.5m) and a single bed (1.1m), perfect for three people, and the space was just right. Check-out is at 12 PM, and at around 700 [currency, presumably KRW], it's really good value for money. The service was good, though we didn't get a chance to use any other facilities!

BBokexierdienThe hotel has a great location. It's just two turns away from Chungmuro Subway Station Exit 8. Airport buses 6105 and 6011 also stop near Exit 8, making it very convenient to get to the hotel.
It's a fully self-service hotel with a self-check-in machine that has Chinese language options, which is super handy.
The room door uses a key code, which is easy to operate. The bathroom is very clean, and there's a slight step down from the toilet area to the shower, which prevents water from splashing out.
Myeongdong is also within walking distance. I would definitely choose this hotel again on my next trip to Seoul.

MmunimunitantanThe room looks exactly like the pictures. The bed was really comfortable and clean, with no strange smells (housekeeping came daily to clean and empty the bins). The bathroom was spacious, making for a pleasant shower experience. We chose a quad room, and there was enough space to spread out my luggage. There are also lockers for valuables, but you need to bring your own padlock. The accommodation is on the third floor with no elevator, so it's a bit of a struggle if you have large luggage like I did. Also, the beds don't have curtains, which can make you feel a bit exposed. Since the room is small, any noise, like using the toilet in the middle of the night, is amplified, and I worried about disturbing others. However, for the price, I'm very satisfied! No complaints at all!
