Pros:

The location was great, super easy to access cafes and restaurants. Very convenient for transit, especially being close to a airport bus stop. There was a scale in the lobby to weigh our luggage, which was helpful. And the staff allowed us to store our luggage in the lobby safely on our last day after checkout.

Cons:

There was an awful sewage stench in the public areas of the building. We were holding our breath through the lobby and elevator. The hallway of our floor smelled like a mix of the stench and air freshener that was trying to cover it up. The mattress was unbelievably uncomfortable, it reminded me of camping and sleeping on the ground. We felt so sore from sleeping there.

Soggiorno perfetto in una posizione incantevole
Pros:

Struttura molto ospitale con camere essenziali ma di buon gusto. Il vero punto di forza è lo staff: ringrazio di cuore la ragazza della hall per l’aiuto fondamentale ricevuto con una consegna (non avendo io un numero coreano). La posizione è perfetta, immersa in uno dei quartieri più belli e a pochi passi da molti punti d'interesse. Tornerei sicuramente qui se dovesse esserci occasione.

Cons:

L'unica piccola nota riguarda la distanza dalla metropolitana: pur essendo in una posizione centralissima, la fermata più vicina non è immediata. Tuttavia, questo si traduce in una piacevole passeggiata tra i vicoli di un quartiere meraviglioso, rendendo il tragitto tutt'altro che pesante. P.s. la vista dalla finestra nella foto è dal corridoio e non dalla camera, la quale affacciava direttamente su un altro palazzo.

Pros:

Lo staff è gentile e si possono lasciare le valigie

Cons:

Il bagno è SCOMODISSIMO, la doccia è in mezzo al bagno senza pareti, quindi si allaga tutto e si bagnano gli oggetti che sono in bagno e poi bisogna camminare per la stanza con le ciabatte bagnate

Perfekte Lage um Seoul zu erkunden
Pros:

Die Lage der Unterkunft ist super! Man ist direkt an verschiedenen Sehenswürdigkeiten und Metro-Stationen. Es gibt in unmittelbarer Nähe sehr viele super schöne Cafés und Restaurants.

Cons:

Das Zimmer riecht immer etwas muffig und das Hostel ist sehr hellhörig. Das Hostel ist aber auch etwas älter, vielleicht liegt es daran.

Отличный и недорогой отель в центре:)
Pros:

Прекрасное расположение отеля - до метро 500 м, круглосуточные магазины в радиусе 100 м, а еще - живописная улочка с магазинами и кафе на любой вкус.
В хостеле очень чисто, свежий ремонт в номерах, хорошие кровати и белоснежное постельное белье. На общей кухне можно попить чай, кофе, приготовить какую-то еду при желании, посуда для этого есть.
Зонтики для прогулок под дождем.
Персонал исключительно приветливый, но при этом ненавязчивый. Узнали, что дочь - поклонница BTS, подарили ей три альбома, стоявших как декорация в холле у ресепшена. Это было очень мило с их стороны))

Cons:

Все отлично, единственное пожелание - добавить в номер еще вешалки для одежды (плечики). Было всего 2 шт, пришлось докупить самим в Дайсо.

Séjour au top en solo
Pros:

Le rapport qualité-prix est excellent, avec un emplacement idéal à proximité de nombreux transports et dans un quartier animé rempli de restaurants, petits cafés, konbinis.

J’ai particulièrement apprécié l’autonomie que l’on a, il s’agit davantage d’un appartement que d’un hôtel, puisqu’il n’y a pas de service de ménage quotidien sauf sur demande. Personnellement, cela m’a beaucoup plu, car j’ai pu profiter de l’espace sans avoir à ranger chaque jour pour le passage du personnel. Des réassorts sont facilement accessibles en toute autonomie (papier toilette, sacs poubelle, serviettes…). J’ai pu faire une machine à la fin de mon séjour sans aucun problème et sans frais !

Enfin le personnel a été d’une grande aide, ils ont contacté mon précédent hôtel où j’avais oublié un vêtement et ont organisé sa livraison en seulement deux jours. Un grand merci à eux !

Cons:

Le matelas n’est pas des plus confortables, mais cela reste tout à fait acceptable.
