Kiva hotelli hyvällä sijainnilla mahtavalla hintalaatusuhteella
Pros:

Sijainti, ystävällinen henkilökunta ja hiljainen huone.

Cons:

Kylpyhuone on samassa huoneessa kuin sänky mikä oli hieman erikoinen, mutta tämä myös tottumuskysymys

It’s a perfect place to stay if you want a bit of peace but still have easy access to restaurants, the market’s & at
Pros:

The rooms were small but surprisingly the storage space was good for two people. The staff were great! Very friendly & helpful. There were lots of eating places around the motel & a close walk to Myeongdong markets.

Cons:

I didn’t like that the room was small but it was fine. There is a shared lounge area which is nice & you can buy light meals from a cabinet. One suggestion is to have plates & cutlery to use

A perfectly located, clean, and friendly stay that made exploring Seoul effortless
Pros:

We stayed at Hotel ShinShin Myeongdong in Seoul and had a wonderful experience. The location is easily the biggest highlight; the hotel is just a few minutes’ walk from the train station and bus stop, although we never needed public transport because taxis and Uber were very affordable in Seoul. Myeongdong Market is right opposite the hotel, and all the major shopping streets are only a few minutes’ walk away. We didn’t need to take a single taxi to reach any of the main shopping spots.

Another huge convenience is that the airport limousine bus stop is only a minute’s walk from the hotel, which made both our arrival and 4.30 AM departure incredibly smooth and stress‑free.

The hotel is clean, spacious, and comfortable. The room also had heated flooring, although we didn’t need to use it during our stay — still a nice feature to have. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, always welcoming us with a smile and ready to assist with anything we needed.

Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would gladly choose Hotel ShinShin Myeongdong again on our next visit to Seoul. Highly recommended for its unbeatable location, comfort, and warm hospitality.
