服務親切環境溫馨有早餐
離東廟地鐵站近,2號或是10號出口都很近,附近就有美食,24H馬鈴薯燉排骨、橋村炸雞、香港飯店401炸醬麵、麥當勞、本粥.......超多,還有很多當地小店,不用煩惱吃的問題。也有大創及超市可逛,散步到東大門也行。 住宿有早餐,吐司牛奶飲料泡麵,貼心提供,更適合小資組。 服務親切有禮,可代叫炸醬麵或炸雞。

2/10 Poor

極嬲的体驗
之前8月尾住過這間旅館留下鎖匙和匙扣已即刻通知員工代我保留到Nov 会取回,員工已答應会keep,点知去到問話冇,我即時極嬲,求問老闆又吾回應,觉得完全不負責任。另外,其中一晚廁所燈消左,又冇人換,搞到果晚要系黑房冲凉,好危險。仲有房暖地又無端端冇左,搞到有D凍,最後職員態度吾好,不能盡錄。

因為是輕木板隔間,所以到了晚上大家都回到房間了,隔壁房的對話可以聽的一清二楚,即使對方已降低聲量。其他都還可以…

Lovely and great hostel
A really lovely hostel with friendly and super helpful staff! It was easy to find the hostel and there was a bus that got from the airport to near the hostel. Before coming to Korea they sent out an email with directions to the hostel (with map and pictures) to make sure that you'll find the way. Which I felt really comforting as I traveled alone. It was a good area to find transportation to places I wanted to go to in Seoul. If I ever fo back to Seoul I would love to stay there next time.

들어가는 입구는 다소 위험하고 위생상태 좋지 않았으나... 숙소는 아늑하고 청결했습니다. 별채? 비슷한 곳이여서 다른 투숙객의 소음도 많이 들리지 않고. 동대문 및 청계천... 서울역과도 가까워 관광하기 무척 용이하였습니다.

小而巧 高cp值
選了有自己的冰箱跟廚房的房型 房間小而巧,比較可惜的是沒有電梯,不過可以請飯店的歐巴幫忙拿行李,以補上這個不足 退房後還可以寄行李,也可以幫忙叫外送,真的很讚,唯一不足的是浴室蓮蓬頭的位置設置沒有很好,就算很小心洗了, 水還是會透過門流到門口,整個踏墊全溼><

Excellent
Although room is not as big but with window! The cozy decoration makes you feel at home. Cleaning staff clean up the room everyday. The best part is the warming mat under the sheet. When we traveling in Seoul, it’s raining and cold weather those days. The warming mat gave us a good sleep. There are staffs who can speak English and Chinese. Especially Nadia, who checked us in, is very welcoming and helpful! We have wonderful experience when staying here. Definitely recommend!!!
