We had an amazing stay at DADA Insadong.
The location is really good, the hotel is next to a bunch of very pretty coffee shops and restaurants, Korean and also western food. It's walkable to the shopping street of myendong, it took us around 30 min. If you don't want to walk there is a metro station nearby (10min walking max).
It's very convenient to arrive with public transport.
The staff is outstanding, the nice lady at the reception was always very nice to us, we felt very welcomed.
The hotel room is small, but that's Okey. We had two big luggages and two small ones and managed to handle it :) The room was super clean and tidy, that's the first hotel I wasn't afraid of walking without shoes.
Also it had floor heatersš That was very comfortable especially during the cold winter. I would prefer this hotel over the bigger once we have visited before every time!:) You can also wash and dry your clothes for 5000 won.
Thanks for the amazing stay!:)
I stayed here twice between late January and February. It is located on the 11th and 12th floors of APM place. It is located a few dozen meters from the metro exit 10. There is an elevator for residences a few meters to the left of the mall entrance. The room is like a one-room apartment, but the bathroom and toilet are spacious, and it is equipped with a kitchen, washing machine, microwave, and water server, so it has everything you would want to have while traveling. The floor heating is on inside the room, and even though it was minus 13 degrees outside and it was snowing, I was able to spend the time in short sleeves. The owner, Sunny, is kind and considerate, asking if there was anything I needed, and when I asked something I didn't understand via LINE, he answered right away. There is a convenience store, CU, next to the building, so even if I went out late at night, APM is open until late at night except on Friday and Saturday, so I felt safe because there were people around. From the window, you can look down on the cityscape of Seoul. It was very comfortable as I stayed here twice in a short period of time, so I would like to stay again next time, but I think it may become difficult to make a reservation if the reputation is good through word of mouth.

I really liked it! Close to the metro, shops and cafes nearby, there is somewhere to walk. It is quiet around, and clean inside. This is probably the most comfortable accommodation in all my travels, even despite the shared bathroom. I would like to come back again and live here longer. I was especially pleased with the communication with the owner. They sent me information in advance on which metro station to get off, through which exit number, sent a map of the walking route and all the access codes to the doors. Ideal interaction! I wish your home prosperity!

The rooms and public spaces were neatly maintained, so I was able to stay comfortably. The bedding was clean, and the shower and toilet were hygienicly maintained.
The price was quite reasonable for the central location of Seoul, and the facilities and services were excellent for the accommodation. Simple breakfast is also included, so I would recommend it to those looking for a good value for money.

It's about 10-15 minutes' walk from the subway station, which is quite convenient. You don't have to take the subway to go to major tourist attractions. There is a bus stop nearby that is 3 minutes' walk away. The room is not very big, but it is actually quite enough for a single traveler. Although the counter service staff mainly speak Korean, they are still very friendly when they meet foreign guests and can speak simple English, which is quite cute š

This hotel was perfect for me as a solo traveler. It might not be well suited for larger groups or families but it was just right for me, and I truly miss staying here. The staff could speak English and greeted me every time I came in, and at 4 am when I checked out, there was even a self-checkout station for me to insert the key. The rules were straight-forward, and they provided a lot of amenities such as skincare and free water, coffee, and tea. Not to mention, the TV was huge and the view was pretty nice. The shampoo and body wash smelled really good, haha. I miss it there already..

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our 6n stay at Hotel Myeongdongjang, despite some minor inconveniences, which were quickly rectified. The hotel staffs were very friendly and polite. Check-in and out were a breeze!
The rooms each have in room aircon and even a water purifier! There is no need to boil water or buy from convenient store! The beds were very comfortable and comforters were nice and fluffy. The rooms were very clean. Thereās a pantry on each level (4th and 5th) and coffee machines, teabags and ice maker. Thereās even a microwave and fridge. I wish their Netflix were in English as I do not know if I could change the language from Korean.
Located in the heart of Myeongdong - a 6mins walk from Myeongdong station, and shops and eateries all around.
I notified Hailey when I spilled coffee on the comforter and she nicely assured me it would be handled n cleaned.
A note of feedback :
1/ to cover the Exit signage with a cloth to reduce the glare at night and
2/ to install shower curtains in each shower would significantly reduce water splashes. I didnāt ask as I didnāt want to bother the staffs too much
If I ever visit Seoul, Iāll stay here again!

Location: The hostel is conveniently located between two metro stations, making it easy to explore the city. However, it's in a bustling market area with nearby restaurants, so there might be a risk of encountering pests..
Room: The room was surprisingly spacious, allowing me to comfortably unpack my luggage. The mattress was a bit firm for my liking, but the pillows were perfect. I appreciated the unlimited supply of garbage bags, which made it easy to keep the room clean. The room key was a bit old-fashioned and heavy.
Amenities: While the hostel doesn't provide a kettle or mugs in the room, there's a convenient water dispenser at the entrance. Unfortunately, they only provide face towels, so be sure to bring your own bath towel. The room is equipped with a hair dryer and a selection of complimentary toiletries, including shampoo, conditioner, face wash and body wash.
Despite a few minor drawbacks, I had a pleasant stay at the hostel. The staff (Sam) was incredibly helpful and responsive, especially when I made my last-minute booking. The convenient location and spacious room were definite pluses.

HHope SanctuaryMy wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying at U Stay Hotel during our visit to Korea, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt the warm hospitality that this charming hotel is known for.
The staff truly went above and beyond to ensure our stay was wonderful. They greeted us with friendly smiles and offered us refreshing welcome drinks while we checked in. Our room was beautifully decorated, clean, and had an incredible view of the city skyline that took our breath awayāperfect for a cozy evening spent watching the sunset together.
The amenities at U Stay Hotel were delightful as well. We indulged in the complimentary breakfast each morning, which featured a lovely selection of both Korean and international dishes. My wife especially loved the freshly made kimchi pancakes! The dining area had a welcoming atmosphere, making it easy to relax and enjoy our meals.
The location couldn't have been betterātucked away in a quiet neighborhood yet still within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and cultural sights. It offered the perfect balance between exploring the vibrant nightlife of the city and having a peaceful retreat to come back to. We had fun getting lost in the local streets and discovering hidden gems only a short stroll from the hotel.
To top it all off, we appreciated the little touches: the hand-written note from the staff welcoming us to the hotel and the thoughtful arrangement of flowers in our roomātruly a sign of their dedication to customer service.
Overall, our stay at U Stay Hotel was nothing short of amazing. It's a perfect choice for couples seeking a romantic getaway or anyone wanting to experience the heart of Korea in comfort and style. We left with our hearts full and memories we will cherish forever, and we can't wait to return! Highly recommend! āāāāā

NNaomi JeanetteI really enjoyed my stay here. Not only is it in the middle of vibrant Sinchon and hongdae (bar/ shopping/ student area), but the facilities were really clean and the staff spoke English, Chinese and Korean and also they had free laundry services. The dryer did take almost two hours to dry my clothes but it didnāt shrink them so win. Everyone was really kind and it was easy to find but be careful not to confuse it with the other 24 guesthouse; this one is Sinchon Avenue.

JJust_tryingMinuses:
The room is much smaller than the one stated on the website.
Noisy air conditioner. In hot weather, you will not be able to sleep without earplugs.
There is an entrance area and you can leave bags there, but there is no place to put suitcases. It is impossible to keep them open to rearrange them.
The wardrobe is too small for two people. There is no way to store things.
The window goes against the wall.
The room is lived in, although cozy. There are problems with sockets, patches on wallpaper and doors.
Uncomfortable pillows. Inside is a protective plastic case. Because of this, it is very uncomfortable to sleep on.
Positive:
⦠Responsive staff. There was a request to provide a quiet room away from the smoking area - they did it.
They let us in much earlier and provided additional water.
The room is cleaned every day, changed towels. After cleaning, it smelled like disinfectant which means cleanliness.
⦠Towels and bed linen are intact, clean and pleasant.
A well-equipped set for guests: washcloth, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, toothbrush, paste, disposable razor, ladyset, shower caps.
⦠Good washing and drying machines. They are paid, but they work well.
There is no window, but good artificial light.
Good water pressure and a spacious toilet.
There is a cool coffee shop and a convenience store nearby.
The area is beautiful with museums and old houses.
There are many beautiful restaurants nearby.
GGuest UserThe check-in process went smoothly, and the staff was not only helpful but also proficient in English. The location is excellent, especially for Muslim individuals, as there are halal restaurants within walking distance, such as Kampungku and Bakso, Korea BBQ. However, the only downside is the strong sewerage smell, even though the private toilet is separate from the bedroom. I stayed in a family room on the 4th floor. Unfortunately, the staff during check-out were extremely unpleasant and impolite. The check-out time is 11am, but you have the option to pay an extra KRW10,000 for a one-hour late check-out until 12 noon at the latest. I have decided to pay for the late check-out, but the staff informed me that we cannot use the luggage elevator as it only operates until 11am. However, the notice clearly states that the elevator operates from 8am to 10pm. After presenting the facts and arguing my point, the staff finally allowed us to use the elevator ⦠i dont really understand why at the first place he keep saying its their rule that the lift can be used until 11am only and he added only 2 of them is working . It is important to note that this building does not have an elevator for people, only for luggage. Therefore, we have to climb the staircase to reach our room. The family room or quadruple room is located on level 4. Please educate your staff to learn more english to cater international guests . Thanks !!

GGuest UserI love the place itās far from every tourist places I wanted to visit .but bc of the people there it was great I meet a friends that is really kind and cute , the room are clean the only things that annoy is the water up the bathroom bc of the heat of water , and no windows in the bathroom , no elevator and you canāt book in the place you need to book in the internet
GGuest UserThe room is clean and well preserved. Quite and hygiene. The owner is really nice. Neighbour is a bit noisy but hey, it's travel not studying in the library so it's fine.
There's kitchen but I did not use it. Not many shops around so it is better to go back to hostel earlier if you are traveling alone.
Drawback: really humid that I have to open the windows in the toilet but then cool wind came in.
