It’s more like a hostel than a hotel or inn. You could find some dust, hair and dirt by the window and on the bed linen. We got our own washroom in the room, but it's actually an open space for wheelchair, and the shower is right above the sink without curtain separating the space from the toilet. Wifi is not password protected so everyone can use your room’s wifi. We didn't use their free breakfast. You can leave your luggage there but unattended - you can leave them in the corridor or under the breakfast tables and no one cares what you put or took away. A good cheap choice if you don’t mind too much.
It is super convenient for shopping and for the night market, even though we are just living above all these busy business, it is safe to go back where we live quickly.

For the price, the location, breakfast ,staff everything was fantastic. I would definitely stay again.
The location is very ideal especially if you wanna go for shopping. It is in the heart of Myeongdong and nearby subways too. Safe for solo travellers as well. Highly recommended!
The room smelled like bleach which should have meant that it was cleaned. But there were still balls of hair in the bathroom and the floor was sticky. Lot of flying fruit/flea bugs in the room. Got a headache from the bleach smell.
The noise from other guests is obviously uncontrollably, but you can hear people talking in the other adjacent rooms. During my stay, some guests got back to the room around 2:30 am and were talking loudly so I was awaken by them. At first I thought they were talking in the hallway because it was so loud, so I checked and they were just talking in their room.
The price for the room was cheap with sale discount, but it was initially listed as over a hundred dollars a night. Even with the sale discount, I don't think the room is worth staying in unless it's a last resort.

You pay for the convenience. The place is in the heart of Myeong-dong. So watch your spending.
The rooms are tiny. It’s like a child's bedroom with a toilet and shower. Breakfast is what you eat when you are running late for work—bread, peanut butter and jelly, coffee, cold ham and coffee. There’s a big bottle of juice to share.
One thing that makes me smile is that you wash your own dishes after you eat breakfast. I have never seen one like that, and I have traveled a lot. Either you learn to wash dishes right there, or it reminds you of being home. Either way, I think it humbles people who stay here.
The staff is helpful, and I think the place is clean. Just know that check-in is on the 15th floor, and the rooms are small. As I say again, you pay for the convenience.
And I think its worth it especially if you are not staying in your hotel most of the time.
It's a great place for a budget hotel, quite clean, close the public transportation, about 5 min walk to the train stations; it is in the middle of the famous Myeondgong shopping street where one can shop for all kings of Korean products, such as skin care, clothes, shoes, snacks etc; it includes breakfast that is good enough. I stayed for five nights. The staff speak different languages - English, Chinese, Japanese and are very nice and helpful. Though the room and bathroom are small, they are pretty good for me.
It’s pretty confusing trying to find the property. The bathrooms are more quaint than I’m used to. So if you are a bigger individual i wouldn’t recommend this inn. Also I was under the impression that it was a female inn. There are male patrons on that floor as well. Our bathrooms are separate but you may have male neighbors. It includes a laundry facility which is convenient and breakfast is self serve. Not a bad place for solo travelers or those on a budget.
