"お勧めはしません。夏に泊まった時、部屋に無数の虫が沸いています。ゴキブリの赤ちゃんもいました。部屋に入るまでもホテル自体に虫が多いし、匂いも厳しいです。虫が大丈夫な人なら、価格は安いので泊まるメリットはあるでしょう。立地は明洞通りなどが近くにありアクセスは非常にいいです。"

"I had a great stay at Loft13 Hostel! It was an excellent value for the price. The hostel was very clean, and everything was well maintained. The highlight of my stay was definitely the staff—they were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with anything I needed. I also really appreciated having access to the washer and dryer, which was so convenient during my trip. As a bonus, the city views from the windows were beautiful, especially at night. I would definitely stay here...

"The hotel was very well-kept and tidy. The AC worked well and the provided breakfast was fine for our family. We were never in contact with any staff during our stay, but it was easy to navigate everything through the technology provided to us. There was a slight odor coming from the bathroom, but it was not that noticeable if the bathroom door was closed. Overall, we had a great experience at this hostel :)"

Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station

8/10 Good
"Tout était très propre, déjeuner excellent, personnel très gentil, les commodités dans la chambre j’aurais aimé une machine à café et des vrai verres et un peu de vaisselle à disposition et la salle de bain est un peu petite mais très fonctionnelle. Somme tout c’est un très bon hôtel très près du métro gros plus."
