Itaewon-dong 3 Stars Hotels

"Tokyo style hotel in Seoul. Positive: Very clean for the price. Negative: Lacks amenities. Mitigant: Buy your own toothbrush, toothpaste, beer, beer food. The front desk person will tell you to buy from the vending machine, but choices and prices are limited. I bought tooth paste & brush there, but for beer & some nuts, I went around the block to a convenience store instead. To me this Toyoku was excellent, hence I leave a review, because I value cleanliness above all. I don’t sleep well if it looks or smells bad, but I slept better than last place. For this price, in Gangnam, it’s very clean, hence, one of the best in value."

"The hotel is in a very convenient and easy-to-find location. It’s right near Sigil Station on Line 5 — just take Exit 3, walk straight, then turn left, and you’ll see the hotel at the intersection. The breakfast was also quite good, especially the Korean-style options, which were very tasty. However, there were a few downsides. I was traveling alone and was only given one small pillow, which was not very comfortable. I had to go to the front desk to request an extra one. The bedroom itself is quite small, which wasn’t a big issue, but the refrigerator is placed very close to the bed and makes a lot of noise, which affected my sleep."

"Very convenient with subway and rail "
