Geumcheon-gu Vacations from $1,252

Location and simplicity.

Great location! The hotel is old. Really surprised to see that a bunch of garbage stuff has been piled inside the main entrance.

Room is cleaned, they address any issues or concerns right away. Staff is courtesy, respectful and very helpful. Hotel is in the middle of shopping and night market activities.

This hotel was adequate, but it has so much potential to be excellent if the rooms could be updated! The location is great - really close to train stations as well as the oldest street market in Seoul. Staff was very good; they helped us get taxis a few times within minutes (taxis are very cheap in Seoul). And they clean the room and provide water bottles daily. The wifi worked well, the AC was cold, and there were USB and two-pronged outlets compatible with US devices. There's a big old converter in the closet if you need to plug in a grounded three-pronged device. However, the rooms are older. Upon getting off the elevator on our 6th floor, you are greeted with a door to a storage room with peeling paint. The carpet is old. It seemed clean, just clearly old and worn. They attempted a few low-budget updates to the bathroom like newer wall tiles, but a few tiles were loose and needed grout or caulk. The sink was the lowest sink I've seen anywhere. Maybe we got a handicap-accessible room (I don't think it was), but I placed and sat down on a chair in front of the sink which made it about the right height for me ;-). All of this was fine and acceptable, but the biggest challenge was the old beds that were not comfortable. You can clearly see that the beds slope to the middle and it feels like it. Overall, it was a great location and clean room, but really just ok because of the age of the property and lack of updates, especially the beds.

Je ne recommande pas et ni j’y retournerai. Froid! J’ai du insister pour changer de chambre, la première chambre se situait au 1er étage=rez-de-chaussée, au fond du couloir, complètement isolée, donnant directement sur la rue arrière. À 148 euros la nuit, ça fait cher le paysage. De très mauvaise volonté, froid, le monsieur de l’accueil ne comprenait pas pourquoi. Je ne suis pas blanche de peau, je n’ai pas ressenti de la sympathie de sa part. Je me suis sentie reléguée à la plus mauvaise place. Au bout d’une demi-heure, il a accepté ma supplication en ayant la même vue mais 5 étages au-dessus. Si je n’avais pas payé aussi cher ( fois 3) je serai partie. Ne pas se sentir bien, pour quelque chose qu’on a payé aussi cher, c’est tres frustrant. La gentillesse est la première chose à offrir. Je ne suis pas difficile, je veux juste être respectée et ça je ne l’ai pas ressenti. Surtout que je l’ai vu très sourire avec d’autres clientes .
