It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the nearest station to the hotel.When going up to the ground, there was no elevator, so it was difficult to lift the carry case. 💦There was a hairdryer, pot, slippers, and a refrigerator. There was no toothbrush, so I'm glad I brought my own. (It would be a good idea to bring it with you to any hotel.)I didn't look into it first, but I was a little embarrassed that I couldn't read the paper.The trash can doesn't even have a lid, it's just a box covered with a plastic bag.There was also a toilet next to the front desk, so if you feel uncomfortable, you can use that.There was a convenience store nearby which was helpful.There is a Starbucks within a short walk.I think it differs depending on the room, but the outlets were in the bathroom, near the pot, in front of the mirror, and under the wall. ⚠️You can't charge it unless you bring a convertible plug. There was something stuck in the place where I first plugged it in and the plug was bent, so I recommend checking it before using it.I was in trouble when I had only one card key for my room and went somewhere else, but I explained it to the front desk and they kept it for me.Around 7:00pm to 8:00pm, the front desk was full of groups and there were only two elevators, so it took a while to get to our room.The elevator will not respond unless you hold your card key and then press the number.

You need to change trains instead of going to Dongdaemun Station.Don't be fooled by the hotel nameThe front desk is unfriendly and there are no staff who can speak Japanese. Southeast Asian guests: Elementary school and junior high school students from within Korea were traveling in a group.It takes a long time to move two elevators.There was minimal service, and I didn't feel it was unclean, but it wasn't clean either. Although it depends on the price, I do not recommend it.The toilet situation in Korea is unavoidable.There were small insects flying in the room.It was disgusting.

Although it was a beautiful hotel, it seemed like a good deal, so I decided to stay there.It's far away from the main placeThere aren't many shops around.The bus stop is right in front of you, so it's very convenient if you want to take the bus.The room is clean.Even in a twin room, there is only one room card key.Amenities include shampoo.Two bottles of water are refilled after refrigerating.The bathroom only has a shower.The front desk is sometimes crowded, probably because there are a lot of people on tour.There is a wowpas charge and exchange machine.I slept well.

The towels were stained and so were the sheets. This is a hotel with problems in terms of cleanliness. The room size is ideal for two people. It is a 5-minute walk from the metro, but it takes 40-45 minutes to reach central places.

Hotel is clean but it’s quite stuffy and humid. Breakfast buffet doesn’t have so many options of food. No fruit.
Location is so so. There is small night market near hotel (less than 1km) but it closes by 10pm completely.

Khách sạn đẹp và ở khu dân cư nên ban đêm có thể dạo chơi và mua sắm.Dù là lần đầu đến Hàn Quốc và đi theo đoàn nhưng tối sau khi đến thời gian tự túc là mình và mẹ cùng đi tản bộ và ghé siêu thị gần đó để mua sắm đồ ăn. Đi vào cuối mùa dâu tây nhưng dâu vẫn còn ngon và rẻ hơn mua từ cty du lịch.The hotel is beautiful and in a residential area so you can walk around and shop at night.Even though it was my first time coming to Korea and going with a group, the next night when it was time to be on my own, my mother and I went for a walk and stopped by the nearby supermarket to shop for food. Went at the end of strawberry season but the strawberries were still delicious and cheaper than buying from a travel agency.

It's more like a personal experience, but the gentleman at the front desk helped me when I had a panic attack. It was very kind of him.

Like many people, the counter staff were mostly aloof, but we didn't think it was a big deal. The room was big enough, comfortable and clean. We stayed for five nights and booked a room for two people and a room for three people. The price was acceptable. It was quite close to the Changhanpying subway station. There were convenience supermarkets and burger restaurants nearby, Olive young. Transportation and late-night snack replenishment are convenient.

Clean rooms, beds and bathrooms, view from the windows of the buildings at a distance of 4-5 m, the so-called pathoconstruction. Close to the bus stop and shops. Kettle, tea and hairdryer, TV. Normal sockets. French-style breakfasts with sausages and fries. Lettuces, corn, beans. Toast and jam, cereal and milk. Apple juice and coffee. Soups.

The Recenz Hotel was by far the best thing on my trip to Korea! Both the service and the salespeople at the convenience store next door were rather indifferent and annoyed towards us, but that didn't bother us much because we had everything we needed. The location made it pretty easy for us because there was a train station, delicious restaurants with a good selection of snacks and our trusted CU convenience store waiting for us right in front of our door. Conveniently, there was a refrigerator in our room where we could store our purchased delicacies. There was also a useful air conditioning system directly above our beds, so we were never short of wind while sleeping (the cool air hit our faces). All in all we had a good time, even though we all have colds after the fantastic climate. #Recommendation #Hotelwetrust

This hotel was so prime! No joke! The time in the hotel was some of the prime time here. I'm actually afraid of elevators but the elevator in this hotel was top notch!!! Otherwise everything was clean and you could shop in the trusted convenience store, CU, next door and store your things in the refrigerator in the hotel #supply. (The CU employee was a little annoyed by our hourly visits but I mean who wouldn't want to spend the whole day there?!) The location was also bomb! You had the Janghangpyeong stop right outside your door! So it was very easy for us to continue traveling. I only have one thing to criticize... the toilet doors need to be replaced... the lock fell off and I locked myself in (I had to sit on the toilet floor for half an hour and be taken out by a repairman...) except that they still charge ₩10,000 for one When we asked for an extra key, everything was great!! Really recommended!

Phòng cũng bình thường, buffet có mấy món. Đi bộ xíu có mấy cửa hàng tiện lợi và có con phố ẩm thực.The room is normal, the buffet has a few dishes. Just a short walk away, there are a few convenience stores and a food street.

Sorry, I'm not sure. I want to know what I'm saying. Later on .Rooms were spacious with nice views of Seoul below. The extra price is worth it, as the breakfast served is very delicious and the hotel is in a safe and clean area. There is a C U Later convince store nearby with snacks and essentials. If you have the money, would recommend for a hotel in Seoul.The room is spacious and has a great view of Seoul below. The breakfast is very good and the hotel is in a safe and clean area so the extra cost is worth it. Nearby is a store called CU Later that sells snacks and essentials. If you can afford it, I recommend a hotel in Seoul.

Very bad hotelHygiene: The sheets and quilt covers looked like they had been cleaned and replaced, but they were actually stained. Pulling back the sheets, the mattress underneath was horribly dirty: hair, all kinds of debris, stains! ! ! ! ! We asked to change the bedding, but after the hotel said it had been changed, it was still dirty.The carpet was also very dark and it hadn't been cleaned for I don't know how long it had been.Equipment: The hair dryer is from more than 10 years ago and makes as much noise as a motorcycle without a muffler.The soundproofing of the hotel is average, and the sound of doors opening and closing outside and other people's conversations in the corridor can be heard clearly.Service attitude: The attitude of the front desk staff is very, very, very bad. There was only one staff member at the front desk when checking in, and he spoke English in a very impatient tone when informing us of the check-in requirements. After I asked the front desk about it, the front desk just rolled their eyes.To sum up, I don't understand how such a hotel can be rated as a three-star hotel. Definitely not recommended to stay!

Maybe it's just recently, but hotels in Seoul are surprisingly expensive. However, this hotel was still affordable. Moreover, since the hotel name was Dongdaemun, I thought the location would be even better, so a friend arranged it for me.It was actually about a 4-5 minute walk from the nearest station. However, the hotel was located in Dongdaemun Ward, so it was not close to Dongdaemun itself and was several stations away.This is not just the nearest station, but surprisingly every subway station seems to have a lot of stairs. In other words, it may not be friendly to tourists with suitcases.When I go to a hotel like this, it feels like a regular hotel, not old, not new, not luxurious, not cheap. The room was clean and had the feel of a business hotel. It's not dirty and the WiFi has a router in each room so you can connect without any problems. The front service was okay, and I could speak both Japanese and English, so I didn't have any problems.It may be surprising, but the bed was comfortable.I didn't really feel like sightseeing in this area itself, but it felt like I was going to go out from the nearest station.

Khách sạn khá sạch, gần đó khoảng mấy chục mét có cửa hàng tiện lợi CU, máy lạnh và máy nước nóng sẽ chạy theo chu kì chứ k chạy liên tục. Tuy nhiên phòng hơi ngộp, đặc biệt là phòng tắm quá nhỏ, gây khó khăn trong việc sử dụng. Khu vực gần khách sạn k có gì nhiều, sau lưng chủ yếu là các cửa hàng sửa xe, đi xa hơn thì mới có một con phố mua bán nhưng cũng k quá tấp nập. Buffet sáng khá chán, không nhiều đồ ăn và đồ ăn cũng không ngon.The hotel is quite clean, a few dozen meters nearby there is a CU convenience store, the air conditioner and water heater will run periodically, not continuously. However, the room is a bit stuffy, especially the bathroom is too small, making it difficult to use. There's not much in the area near the hotel. Behind it are mainly car repair shops. If you go further, there's a shopping street but it's not too busy. The breakfast buffet is quite boring, not much food and the food is not delicious.
