4/10 Fair

We chose this hotel mainly for its location near the DDP, which was very convenient. Unfortunately, aside from the location, the experience was disappointing. The hotel is in poor condition, looking old and poorly maintained. Cleanliness was a major issue. Even though we put up the “please clean my room” sign every day, our room was never cleaned during our two-week stay. The bed was only made about four times, and while fresh towels were provided, no actual cleaning was done. The air-conditioning unit was dirty and triggered allergic reactions for me (I have asthma), so I had to sleep with a mask at night. The bed itself was very hard and uncomfortable, even for Korean standards. On a positive note, the front desk staff were friendly. However, the lack of proper cleaning and maintenance really affected our stay. I’ve stayed in better 2-star hotels, and I hope management addresses these issues.

2/10 Poor

All the negative reviews you've read here are accurate and confirmed—there’s really nothing more to add.

8/10 Very good

The room was dirty, and dusty. We we arrived the lobby staff took a 10 minute phone call in the middle of us checking in and we thought that was rude. The bed was cozy, but the room was very dirty on the walls. In the bathroom the paint was peeling by the tub.

I recommend

Beautiful property and perfect location. However, it might be a cultural thing but you will not experience the same kind of welcome you feel in America. People will not greet you. Room is a lil smaller than I expected and I’m an airline employee that travels the world. Room was cleaned daily and sheets were replaced. I would definitely recommend just wanted to highlight certain things so travelers are aware. Ps: I didn’t recognize that there was mold on my bathroom ceiling. I can tell they didn’t pay attention to detail when cleaning. Over all a clean property

The room was incredibly dirty when I was checked in. There were dusty everywhere, floor, shower room, bath tub, even on the bed sheet.I told the staff to change the room but unfortunately, there were no available room. So, I asked for cleaning my room asap, the staff promised. But there were no one came to clean. An hour later, I told the staff again about my unclean room. They apologized me again and promised to clean my room. So, I went out and come back later night. MY ROOM STILL DIRTY AS BEFORE.

東大門総合市場での買い物が目的でこちらのホテルを利用しました。 最寄りの東大門歴史文化公園駅は3本の路線が入っていて、交通の便はかなり良く便利でした。 部屋の広さも充分で、洗面・トイレ・お風呂が広いので浴槽でシャワーを浴びてもトイレがずぶ濡れになる事はなく、用意していたシャワーカーテンも必要なかったです。 ただ一つ、コンセントを刺す所が2箇所しかなかったのが不便でした。 他は何も困った事はなくスタッフも日本語が話せて親切で良かったです。

古いのは仕方ないけど、お風呂とかピンクカビ生えてるし不潔。 部屋のドアも力を込めないと閉まらない。 評価が高かったから選んだけど失敗。

湯船があるのは良いが、浴槽周りの水捌けがなく、水たまりになってしまう。入り口ドアの立て付けが悪い。トイレから出る時、ドアのつまみが小さすぎてつかみにくい。
