Convenient Location
Convenient location to the Dongdaemun station and big market. This was the fastest check-in and checkout process I've ever experience. The room was smaller than expected but the bed was very comfortable. The heater can either be turned on or off. Can't adjust the temperature. The wood floor was warm which was perfect for the cold weather.

Oldy but a goody
Location is really good.
If you are not bothered by hotel condition being old, value for money is good because of location.

Hotel near subway.
The hotel is clean although a bit old. Very near to subway Dongdaemun Line 4 & 1 and the entrance is in front of hotel.
Taxi arrangement to Incheon Airport by hotel staff and on time. The staff is very helpful and kind.

The hotel is not money worth. Not next time
The hotel was disappointed. The facilities were old, there was not even a curtain on the bath tub. Room was small, light were too dim. Everything was not right. The only good thing is location, right close the Dongdaemun station, nothing else.

Nice room but
Poor experience walking through a busy market to find the crowded lift. Outside the room was like a construction site. Not what I expected

Good location
The hotel location is very good however it is a very old hotel and what I am very concern of is the room carpet.
It is really very old and torn at some part which I dare not even walk barefoot in the room. It will be good if
they can look into it and change all the old carpet.

Bad, stinky hotel rooms, Good location
The hotel Dongdaemun locates right next to the Dongdaemun Market and several other shopping malls. So, for fashion shoppers this is a very convenient location. Also, there is a metro station right in front of the hotel- another big plus. Hotel itself is very very old and shabby. No breakfasts are served at the hotel so you would have find food among many asian style, fast food shops. Rooms were stinky, dark. Bathroom was old, toilet flashed poorly. In overall, hotel itself is poor although it is still in business because of its location.

my vacation
Quite nice for 24hours shopping neighbourhood, but it has a bar or spa on something loud on the 8th floor, and can't sleep very well during midnight, because i can hear the loud on 7th floor.
Don't expect too much on the room service, since i only saw 1 single person in the lobby, and no services offered.
Rooms are quite tidy but very very old.
