Dongdaemun Neighbors

We truly enjoyed our stay here. The room was spacious, comfortable, and had everything we needed. It was exceptionally clean and pleasant. The neighborhood is lovely and has all major public transportation and convenience stores within a short walking distance. We also loved the caring and helpful staff, who made our experience even more special. Highly recommended! Thank you so much for an amazing stay ❤️

Good value for money

The bed felt a little bit unstable

Cuando llegué me equivoqué de alojamiento y el hombre llamado Kan (perdón si no es correcto) me llevó hasta el alojamiento correcto, me compró una Pepsi y me ayudó con la maleta pesada todo el trayecto! Fue una gran experiencia nada más llegar al país :) Las instalaciones son muy completas, tiene varias lavadoras, un tendedero que la gente puede llevar a su habitación, cocina. Puedes coger toallas si las necesitas en la entrada. La ubicación es buena, a 3 minutos andando de la parada del autobús 6002 que llega del aeropuerto y a 10 minutos del metro de Silseong.

Tal vez la limpieza, sobre todo el aspecto de las sábanas

We arrived at 3am due to flight delays, and to our shock, the room wasn't ready! We tried to contact the host, but understandably, it was 3am. We had no choice but to look for fresh bedding ourselves and disinfect the room, and we didn't finish until 6:30am! Thankfully, the host acknowledged what had happened and was extremely apologetic. He even offered us a refund to make up for the error. He was very kind and true to his word, which we really appreciated! It was our first time in Korea, and despite the initial issue, he certainly made a good impression on us and gave us a great first experience of Korean hospitality. We understand that human errors are inevitable, and we don't hold it against him. Thank you, Kang! Once we settled in, everything went very well. The air conditioning worked perfectly, and the facilities, including unlimited drinking water, a kitchen, and a washing machine, made our stay very comfortable. Yes, the property may appear a little run-down at first impression, but for the price we paid, it was definitely worth it! We fell in love with Seoul so much that we wanted to rebook our stay after our trip to Busan, but unfortunately, it was fully booked. Thank you, Kang, for honouring your word and for making our stay as comfortable and welcoming as possible. We really appreciate it. We hope to return one day! All the best from the family from UK! 🇬🇧

A little run down at first impression but you do get used to it!

The staff was very friendly and accommodating and in a good location as well

nothing

everything. there was mold everywhere, aircon was broken and no hot water. place was much smaller than on photos. there was also a strange orange bag on top of the aircon that contained unknown contents. we moved the same night we were supposed to check in because it was horrible. property was terrible at responding and couldnt get a reund

Nothing

So dirty, old, nobody cleans that place in very long time, mold on the walls, in corners, in fridge, all over bathroom, absolutelly terrible. Dirty kitchen, very old dirty carpet all over hallways, no floor cleaned, The WORST place I have ever been to and I am use to hostels, small rooms, shared bathrooms, so I am not that picky, but this place is something extra. I choose it because of ďhood price for privat room and location, but I wiuld rather be in hostel room with 5 other people than this. Not worth of anything.

Nothing

The property is dirty and full of mould This is not safe to stay in as u can get sick from mould the property smells . The photo is miss leading in reality it’s dirty even the bed sheet is dirty . It’s also feels abandon We supposed to stay for 5 days but we didn’t stay Cos it’s very unhealthy to sleep in that place. The photo show clean room and it’s actually not So many trash in the area and the toilet smells bad and full of moulds too. It should not be listed in booking.com Also it should be reported to korean tourism as this is very bad condition nobody should be staying in this place.ill be filing a consumer case as they refuse to refund me even I didn’t stay. I will make sure to file a case as this is Mis leading

숙소 환경이 좋았고 청결하고 사장님이 스마트하셔요

없음

식사하는곳이 매우 가깝고 객실이 깨끗하고 훌륭했습니다

없어요

I cannot believe anyone can live there in such a condition It was so so dirty and It looked like haunted house.

Шикарное расположение ,в 5 метрах от реки,где чудесная прогулочная зона,со всеми удобствами. 2 станции от рынка Дондемун и 4 станции от Мендон

Жёсткая узкая кровать,комната грязная и вообще вся гостиница! Кондиционер воняет,не чистили давно! Почти не включала,а уже было жарко! За 2 недели ни разу не было уборки

It is a good place to crash a night after a long flight from/to Europe. If landing at ICN airpot, this place is really a quick walk from from one of subway stations The place is ralmost ight in the city center, close to big shopping mall with anything You might need for Your stay. The rooms - typical dormitory beds, maybe a little place to move around, small toilets and so on, but everything works and gives You another perspective and experience. Around or near the hostel there are some usual vending machines with any kind of stuff You could imagine plus some shops like famous G25. The owner is a cool guy, who knows travellers` needs and always ready for a chat or help. The place has lots of passing tavellers, who can share some incrediblie stories with You or give You some tips or news about Your next destination! Would love to visit this palce again! Thanks for all the hospitality!

Some kind of renovation/refurbishment in all areas would be handy;)

Would love to come back

None

Near in tourist pot

Lack ameneties

It's old, but it's cost-effective. The location is good. You can go anywhere in Seoul

la ubicación estaba bien, pero en un barrio un poco feo, de todas maneras era accesible el metro, las micros, negocios, restaurantes, todo estaba bien en ese sentido.

las camas, horrendas, eso si debería mejorar, nos quedamos en una habitación con 3 camas y termine con dolor de espalda por que muy delgados los colchones.

Extremely strong smell of mold and sewage in the room. Mold all over the walls, stains on the bedding. We didn't expect much at the price point but the place was a legitimate health concern. Pictures very inaccurate. Do not expect any sort of refund from the owner

Location

smelling, blankets and sheets no good,

Good for budget travellers. Would recommend.

La cocina y el agua caliente

El sector tiene un mal olor y el internet era malísimo

very dirty, not comfortable, no bedding, the blankets were torn, very dirty, my sister and I had 2 children, we were very scared to stay in the hotel for 1 night. There was no information staff or cleaner inside

很干净，价位很便宜，交通方便，这次旅行很满意哟，还会再来预约房间的，

第一次住青旅 性价比也很高 也看到了很多不好的评论 但其实我认为还可以 并没有那么夸张 旅社分两层 无电梯 办理入住也很简单 告诉这里的服务人员你的名字就可以 不用确认护照 这里有公共的厨房 有洗衣机可以用 我认为是一个很划算的住宿了 而且 这里的交通也很方便 离地铁站也很近 我们遇到了这里的旅客 大家也都很好

Le logement est bien situé, et la personne qui gère le logement est très gentil et attentionné (m’a proposé de rester dans la chambre plus longtemps car il faisait chaud dehors). Avec mes amis nous avons trouvé les lits plutôt confortables (bien que beaucoup de commentaires disaient le contraire, nous ne comprenons pas pourquoi).

Le point faible de cette établissement est évidemment l’hygiène cependant pour le prix des chambres il ne faut pas espérer un 5 étoiles … c’est vrai qu’il y a avait un peu de moisissure dans la salle de bain mais rien de très méchant. Il faut également éviter la cuisine.

시설은 좀 낡았지만 교통이 편하여 목적한 여행을 쉽고 편하게 할수있엇어요.가성비최고의 숙소입니다

A cheaply price and kindness

Nothing was there

I liked that there were no staff watching us. It was also close to subway station.

It smells, the bunk beds were creaking when we try to move while sleeping, not clean. The hotel looked like an abandoned kindergarten because of the lack of repairment. They didn't gave us toothbrush and slippers. The hallway stinked. The hotel looked like it was collapsing. After all that everyone seems to be glazing the hotel with all the sticky notes of thanking for the "comfortable service". These people are truly blind or too nice or it's just fake notes made by the staff. The staff didn't speak English.

Thank you very much for allowing me to check in early. I was satisfied with being able to use the Cheonbyeon promenade that connects Cheonggyecheon stream.

La proximité de tout les points fort de la ville. Le personnel très gentil et à l’écoute. Machine à laver, sèche linge.

Il n’y avait pas d’odeur ou quoi ms bcp de poussières sous les lits.

Que me fui de ahí.

En mi vida he estado en un sitio así de cutre, viejo y sucio. -En la habitación había pelos de mujer por el suelo e incluso dentro de lo podríamos llamar frigorífico. - El baño estaba lleno de moho en el lavabo y en el inodoro...con el riesgo alto de infección. - El frigorífico estaba amarillo por dentro, con pelos dentro y hacia mucho ruido. - El pasillo y las escaleras del hotel sin sencillamente asquerosas. - El papel de las paredes despegado. Que a nadie se le ocurra nunca reservar está mierda de albergue. Debería estar clausurado por las autoridades sanitarias.

Очень удобное местоположение, рядом две станции метро и автобусная остановка, недалеко от центра

На кухне воняло. Ремонта в здании не было лет двадцать. Комната была на 2 этаже и был странный смеситель воды в душе - кипяток или холодная вода, настроить тёплую воду было очень сложно

Расположение очень хорошее, всё остальное... вводит в депрессию.

Душ капец странный, горячей воды не было, окно есть, но оно перекрыто плакатом снаружи, шкафа нет, есть одна вешалка.

cheap price and good location

old

位置方便， 地鐵新設洞4號口上來走路4分鐘 ，便宜

浴室極小、衛生不佳，有異味，臉盆塞住，水下不去，水管漏水，設備老舊，上下床鋪老舊，搖晃嚴重，爬上鋪須小心

La ubicación y el precio estaba excelente. Voy a volver seguro

cheap!!!

서울의 명소인 청계천이가깝고 제기동전통시장이가까워서 좋았어요.교통도편리하고 풍물시장도가까워서 좋았어요

Location is good

The hot water in bathroom

Gutes Personal. Gute Lage. Es gab zwei 7eleven in der Nähe. Bus und Bahn war ebenfalls sehr nah. Es gab viele Restaurants in der Nähe. Kleine Empfehlung: 자매손칼국수 , sehr lecker!!! Als Gruppe ist es geeignet hier zu bleiben.

Die Sauberheit hat bisschen zu Wünschen übrig gelassen.

청계천과 가까웠고 한국사람들의 삶을 들여다볼수있는 풍물시장도 가까워서 좋았어요.가성비좋은 숙소에서 좋은여행하고합니다

Ubicación

Nadie se veía acargo, cero limpieza y mal olor.

地下鉄、バス停どちらからも近いので移動はとても便利でした。バスで明洞、東大門、景福宮行きました。 洗濯機が置いてあったので、長期滞在で洗濯出来た。

水周りがカビだらけで(事前に口コミ見ていましたが想像以上…)不快だったのと、2段ベッドの下もホコリだらけ…洗っているのだろうけど、かぶり布団も臭くてかぶらず寝ました。 台所のゴミ受けも小さい虫がいっぱい…水を流すと居なくなりましたが…

Hiç bir şeyini beğenmedim

Hayatımda kaldığım en kötü tesisti

the price and location

Le logement est situé près d’une station de métro (ligne 1), ce qui est très pratique. Nous avons pu accéder à notre chambre tôt, et elle était globalement fonctionnelle. Dans la cuisine, un distributeur d’eau est également disponible pour avoir de l’eau fraîche.

Malheureusement, la chambre quadruple n’était pas très propre, en particulier la salle de bain, qui était remplie de moisissure. De plus, les lits superposés étaient abîmés (avec du scotch pour faire tenir les rambardes). Enfin, nous avions parfois de petits visiteurs à l’entrée de notre chambre (cafards). Mais très sincèrement, pour Séoul, le rapport qualité-prix reste bon. Nous n’avons pas croisé de membre du personnel par contre.

Location, Staff, Helpful

Has potential to be better. wifi was not that great.

The room was very basic. Location was good but not amazing, located near a nice river and walking path, restaurants and convenience stores, but not very close to main attractions.

The bathroom was filthy. The door frame was covered in mould. The underneath of the tap was covered in grime, really gross to touch. The bathroom stank so bad we had to spray perfume each time we needed to use it. The shower head wasn’t even attached to the wall! Overall, Dongdaemun Neighbors is in pretty bad condition.

Where to start. The hotel was really cheap, so that’s definitely a positive. And it was in a good location, close to the subway.

Now the negatives: There was mold in the hotel and it wasn’t clean. Some of the electrical outlets were sparking occasionally. And three times someone tried to turn our door handle. The third time, my friend couldn’t take it anymore and went to check the door. There was a young man behind it, apologizing — but he kept trying other doors too. This happened at 3:24 in the morning. What was he looking for? There a door open 24/7 On top of that, we found a cockroach in the room. I messaged the owner asking for a different room. He just replied that he apologize ,he applied some spray and that he’d move us once another room became available. After three days, it was clear he wasn’t going to do anything. So that is all I don’t want be evil or something but this is was really extreme experience. lesson learned not to take a cheap hotel, take serious review

service and provider

need big towel and more pillow

I was concerned about cleanliness and bugs because they were cheap, but they were clean for the price, and I didn't see any bugs. I'm relatively satisfied.

I couldn't see the staff very often.

THE MOLD WAS SUFFOCATING. being there made me want to die, thankfully there was so much black mold on the property that shouldn’t require any additional effort

Can cook and given appliances. Can leave luggage in while waiting for flights departure for free after checking out. The location of the house is very near the main road and public transportation.

At the pantry area the plugs and wiring are broken. Not serviced or changed. We moved all electrical appliances; induction cooker, rice cooker, pressure cooker exc refrigerator inside the room. Pantry area and bathroom smelled a bit musty.
