Myeongdong Mom House

Do not be deceived by the official photos aa they seem to be from long ago. The room I was given was in a sorry state. The intro said mountain or city view, there was no view to talk about, that is if you even dare to touch the extremely dusty blinds and Window. The sink was faulty on day 1 and I reported it to reception who told me they will need some parts and will change so on day 2. Day 2 came and went and nothing was done because the manager had more important thing to do than repair a faulty sink. Asked again on Day 3 to see if they could change my room since they can't fix the sink and was told 'there's no extra room'. By then,i had already put up with 2 nights with a faulty sink and had 2 more nightscat this place. On day 4, the receptionalist came to me to offer to change my room (I guess they have no intention to fix the sink) but by then I had only 1 night left so i rejected. It took them 4 days to even remotely solve the problem. As per the photos, the room was extremely dusty at places. The receptionist are very polite and communicates very well. Sadly, though they had no power to problem solve. The fridge in the room stopped working the moment you take out the key card. I learnt it the hard way when I went back to warm drinks at night. The best feature is the fridge in the common area.

The hotel is very close to subway and myeondong shopping/walking street

Location is great. Just a 3-min walk from Myeongdong station. There is a ramp at the guesthouse entrance for luggages and there is a lift and stairs in the 6-storey building. Bathroom is quite spacious. There is a pantry with hot and cold water dispenser. There is also 1 washing machine and clothes rack on every floor. Room is quite small for 2 guests with luggages. No side tables. No individual slippers. Towels might be torn. Hangers might be broken. There was also uncleared dirts below the tray compartment. TV might not always work. It is difficult to navigate the TV channels. There isn't a 24-hour duty staff.

The location is one of the best, 3 mins from Myeongdong Station. It’s close proximity to Myeongdong Streets means lots of food and shopping options nearby. Beds are comfortable and cosy even during winter.

Location is super convenient, located just right next to one of the mrt’s exit. The room is good for solo travellers. Not big but enough. Basic amenities all equipped. Kitchen and laundry can also self service at one of the levels.

Accommodation Review: Myeongdong Mom House Myeongdong Mom House is a great choice for its convenient location near the subway and the lively streets of Myeongdong. The heated floors are a highlight, keeping the room cozy during cold weather. The property has an elevator, which is helpful, and most services are self-service, though staff is available during limited hours. Towels are small but can be exchanged anytime at the lobby. There’s also a shared kitchen and washing machine for guests to use. One small issue was the slightly unsteady toilet in our room, but it didn’t affect our stay much. Overall, it’s a comfortable and budget-friendly option for exploring Seoul.
