Dapsimni 2-dong Packages (Flight + Hotel)

Stayed in both the hostel option and private room option. For both, you can find better in the neighborhood on both price and quality. This is not a 3 star hotel. Maybe a 1.5 star if generous. It’s just poorly maintained and a cheaply renovated hotel conversion in an office tower. For the hostel. I’ve stayed in 40+ hostels so I know what I’m getting into. Beds are fine but showers / toilets are poor. It’s bc they tried to cram too many toilets/showers into too little space. Especially a space with no windows. This means everything is constantly wet, humid, musky, and rusty. For the private rooms. Your mileage really varies depending on the room. I’ve stayed here previously and the room I got was much more serviceable. This was not the case this time. Room is so poorly laid out that it borders on unusable. The bathroom has the toilet blocking half the door. So you get to side walk into the bathroom each time you use the sink. The bathroom is also so small and unvented that it never fully dries after showering. So mold and rust are issues. There is no table and the shelf is built on top of the mini fridge and the opening faces the bed instead of the walkway. The linens are also questionable. Stained in random spots. The stairways are a fire hazard bc the doors can neither stay fully closed or open bc the staff stores boxes and laundry in the stairwells. Location is central to many other neighborhoods. Laundry in the big machines work.

it was a great experience

Perfect location, clean and modern room, hope to come back!!

I went to Korea for the first time solo and this place was just what I needed: a place to sleep. I’m rarely ever in the room so I just wanted something basic and affordable to sleep. I got the 2 twin bed room and it was a perfect size for me. Yes the place is a bit dated and old and you can tell they just patch work some of the things falling apart like the walls and floor. But overall it’s decent if you want an affordable stay. Toliet and shower are separate which in Korea is hard to find. Usually it’s together in one closed room so the floor is always wet when you use the toliet but not here. It even has AC, tv and fridge. Close enough to myeongdong shopping street just across the street. About less than 10 min walk. In a small alleyway but still very safe to go to even at night as a solo female traveler. Next to a lot of restaurants. Staff was nice and helpful. They even had a scale for me to weigh my luggage. Would stay here again if I’m doing solo trip again in Seoul. Also has a bus station that takes you straight to the airport. Just look for the sign 6001 sotetsu splasir myeongdong just at the end of the block. Costs 17,000 cash

The staff was so helpful when a family member left something on the taxi. They were able to locate and contact the taxi. Arrangements were made to bring the item to us.
