K-Guesthouse Dongdaemun Premium

The room is small, but it’s ok for one person. The location is good and easy to get access to the subway station.

Very nice location. I think the AC/heater was controlled and I was so hot. I didn’t sleep well. I called three times but no one answered. I went down by the lobby and it was unattended.

The room was as advertised in the picture! The place was really nice and the rooms were clean. The place did not look old either. The reception was also accommodating. Location-wise, it’s usually a 4-6 min walk to the bus stops. Really close to dongdaemun plaza but around 6 bus stops to Myeongdong. The neighborhood was also nice and clean. It’s located on the side of the road which is convenient but I see why other travellers would find the noise from the road uncomfortable. I didn’t mind though. Breakfast was served and they had toast and cereal available. You can, however, cook if you choose to and they have an air fryer as well. We were assigned to room 403. The room was good but there was a leak outside coming from the lights so it floods a little outside the room so maybe just request to not be given room 403 but we had a window though. Overall a pleasant and comfortable stay :)

The hotel room not that clean

I chose to look at the picture of my room when I made the reservation, but in reality it was not clean, the air conditioner smelled terrible, it had a moldy smell, it stopped working after several attempts, and it turned on after several visits. There were no mosquito nets in the room. There were many mosquitoes inside the room. The ceiling wallpaper was very thin. There is no water in the refrigerator, there is no water bottle to drink, or you have to buy water and there is no toothbrush. It was a very uncomfortable night. Guest house breakfast is just bread and coffee. Instead of that, there is a difference of 10,000 won, but Toyoko inn seems to be fine. The breakfast is included in the price of the hotel.

Good hotel near by underground.
