I recently had the pleasure of staying at Cave Myeongdong for six nights. From the moment i checked in, the staff were welcoming and attentive, ensuring that all my needs were met throughout my stay. The location was perfect for my needs, situated in a central area with easy access to public transportation and nearby attractions. Whether i wanted to explore local shops, dine at nearby Halal restaurants, or visit popular tourist spots, everything was within a short distance.

The bathroom has no really shower, but headshower attached to faucet of sink. The bathroom drainage is clogged. But the location was supreme
Response from Property: Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the bathroom drainage and the shower setup. The drainage issue has already been resolved, and we are continuously working to improve our facilities. In Korea, it is common for bathrooms to feature a combined sink and shower head setup, which is why our facilities are designed this way. We will make every effort to ensure you have an even better experience on your next visit. We're glad you enjoyed our location, and we hope to welcome you again soon!

Our stay with Cave Myeongdong was great overall, and we're so glad we chose it. Cave Myeondong is at the perfect place near all the fun stuff but far away enough not to be overwhelemed by people when you want to rest and unwind after a long day of touring. It' also strategically sandwiched by multiple convenience stores when you want a quick bite before leaving for tours or late night cravings. Our check-in was also super smooth despite coming in late. The instructions were laid out clearly that we had no problems for everything.
Response from Property: Dear Danielle,Thank you so much for your wonderful review about your stay at Cave Myeongdong!We are so happy to hear that you had a comfortable and enjoyable time with us.It’s great to know that our location and facilities helped make your trip even better.Your feedback really means a lot to us, and we will continue to work hard to provide the best service possible for all our guests. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!Wishing you all the best and a great day ahead!Thank you again,Cave Myeongdong Team

I arrived easily enough, but there was no one there to check me in, and they did not send the information to the correct email so I could not enter the main door until other people came. They were slow to reply to my messages, so I could not leave the hostel for fear of not being able to enter again. There was never anyone at the desk to help me, and the walls were so thin I barely got any sleep because of the other people living there. I would not recommend this place to anyone. There are plenty of better places to stay.

Cafe on the 1st floor, 2-4 living rooms, and an exit to the roof.
Room 305 on the 2nd floor. Comfortable room, comfortable beds, window facing the street, there is a refrigerator with a freezer (for ice cream). Three-piece sliding window: mosquito net, double-glazed window with a soundproofing effect (%70), and total black roll. The air conditioner works.
The lounge on the roof is gorgeous, open from 10 to 22. Apart from me and my friend, there was no one in the morning. You could drink your morning coffee in silence and enjoy the views of Mount Namsan and the city.
The cafe on the 1st floor will provide delicious breakfasts at a reasonable price, for residents there is a discount on certain menu items.
The Myeong-dong Station metro station is 5 minutes walk away. The cable car to Mount Namsan is 10 minutes walk away.

Response from Property: Thank you very much for such a detailed and warm review!
We are very glad that you liked room 305, especially the comfort, comfortable beds and the presence of all necessary amenities, including a fridge with a freezer. Special thanks for the high rating of our soundproofing and window solutions.
It is also nice to hear that you enjoyed the morning moments on the rooftop overlooking Mount Namsan and the city. This is one of our favorite places, and we are glad that you were able to spend time there in peace and quiet.
Thank you for mentioning the cafe on the ground floor and the discounts for guests - we try to create a cozy atmosphere not only in the rooms, but also in the common areas.
We hope to see you again in the future and give you even more pleasant impressions. See you soon!

You have to go through a long slope to reach the hotel, and there are several stairs outside the door. The weather was not very good that day, it snowed suddenly, and I had to drag two suitcases with me. It was so hard to arrive first.
The room was relatively clean, but the two water pipes in the bathroom were loose. The toilet board is loose again. Lack of maintenance
Hot water is ok

advantage:
1. Cheap.
2. The location is convenient, there is a convenience store 1 minute away. Near the subway station, walk straight for 1 minute from Exit 8 of Diqiao Station to the airport bus station.
3. There is a window and it can be opened.
4. Check-in is originally only available at 15:00, but before 12:00, the hotel has sent check-in information (door password, room number, room password) on trip.com, so you can check in early.
5. There is a water dispenser in the public kitchen and a public electronic luggage scale.
6. The little girl at the reception is very beautiful.
shortcoming:
1. The cleaning was not very good. When I opened the window, I saw dead spiders in the cracks of the window. There is dirt where the toilet plate is fixed.
2. The toilet seat is loose.
3. The toilet is leaking. I need to drain the water from the toilet and turn off the water switch before going to bed every night, otherwise there will be a leaking sound all night long.
4. Pay attention to the direction when taking a bath, otherwise the water will flow out of the door.
5. The sound insulation is very poor. When the hotel door is closed, there is no buffer, so there will be loud noises when guests come in and out. One night due to the first snow, people could still be heard coming in and out at 02:00 in the morning. As long as there are residents in nearby rooms taking a shower, the sound of water will be heard.

It was close to Myeongdong Station and the room was clean and very nice.
However, I arrived when the front desk was closing, so I panicked because I couldn't find the entrance (there were signs if you looked closely, but it was dark and I couldn't see them well).
The next day, I saw someone similarly fumbling with the lock near the entrance, so I called out to them and showed them the way.
I think it would have been easier to find if there had been a sign at the entrance facing the street.
Thank you for your hospitality over the past two days.
