Pros:

Un bagno pubblico sarebbe stato più adatto ad ospitarci. Condizioni indegne e offensive. Siamo arrivati a mezzanotte e costretti a dormire una notte per poi trovare un altro albergo ovviamente al doppio del prezzo.Riconosco all'host di averci restituito l'intero importo.

Cons:

Sporco, pipì nel bagno, ascigamani sporche e lenzuola sporche. Un incubo

3 nuits à Séoul
Pros:

L’emplacement était très bien, le quartier est tranquille et le métro à 5 min à pied. Nous avons eu un problème avec la clim résolu dans l’heure grâce au personnel réactif.

Cons:

Le ménage était moyen, la climatisation très sale est pas entretenue ce qui m’a causé un rhume. Le matelas est très taché et loin de sa couleur blanche naturelle. Il y’a bien une protection par au dessus mais l’état est pour moi obsolète. On voit que le logement est entretenu au minimum syndical ce qui est dommage car l’emplacement et le quartier sont très bon. L’isolation est très mauvaise mais nous avions des voisins respectueux et n’avons pas été impacté par cela. Le logement a une fenêtre mais il est assez sombre. Le ménage n’est pas fait tous les jours.

Pros:

Hostel location is good. Facilities provided are also better.

Cons:

I was being cheated by the Taxi driver for asking the expensive taxi fare, more than 3 times of the normal charges on the 1st day arrival to stay there.

For carrying luggage, no elevator is not good indeed.

Walking from the Subway Station to November Myeongdong is tired for me because of the slope road.

L'emplacement

Cons:

Les chambres ne sont pas propres, pleins de poussière et de déchets sous les lits. En plus d'un lit bancal !

価格が安いからこんなものかなって感じ
Pros:

駅から近いので、買い物したら一旦ホテルに戻るみたいな…利便性は良い。部屋も広々していて、冷蔵庫、洗濯機はありがたかった。タオルも沢山あった。近くにコンビニ3つある。いちばん近いコンビニ店員さんの対応良し!

Cons:

坂道を登る。まぁまぁの距離登る。部屋が4階で階段キツイ。清潔感に欠ける。ベッドの下も汚い。何かに刺されたみたいで、足がブツブツできた。洗面所の排水口の水はけが悪い。

Check-in was easy and information was clear and communicated in time. Good WiFi and Aircon.
