Rainbow Hotel Myeongdong

Rainbow Hotel Myeongdong

3.1/538 Reviews
Myeong-dong
時間を言って来てるのに受付に人は居ないし連絡つかない。３０分後探しに行くと本人はスマホ握ってるのに無視して５階で他の客と会話。この時点でモラハラを感じて嫌な気にになる。会うと突然日本人か当てようとする失礼さ。 部屋は高めなのに狭いし、食事は５階でしかできない。モラハラ親父がスマホでモニター見て監視しており、きっと現れるので行きたくない。 もっぱら買い食い。 何かにこじつけ用もないのに上から目線で客の容姿ジャッジしつつ結婚歴まで聞いてくるキモさ、もう話したくなくて黙ってるのに話さないと注意を探して話そうとするができないのでやめる事を繰り返す。境界線なくてかなり最初から不愉快。構って欲しがってる人だけにしてよ！ 終わってるのに洗濯を手伝うと言いながら、何度も断ってるのにニヤニヤして手を突っ込もうとする。すると、一回目は無料と言ってたのに読めないんだろだから助けてるんだよ。見たか？洗濯には金がいると言い出す。面倒だから五千ウォン払いました。 その時他の人いたので、一回目は無料だから金は良いといい始める。けど結局金は受け取った。もうめちゃくちゃで嘘ばかりで適当に言って絡みまくる時に言ってること覚えてないんだと思う。 支配欲すごい自己愛性パーソナリティ障害人格障害のようで、拒絶を示すと罵って人のせいにして嘘までつく。 こちらはセクハラもやめろと言ってるだけ。貴方はただのスタッフだし私は客だからプライバシーを話したくないと言って怒っても理解出来ず支配を諦めない 日本人女性だと思ってセクハラできると思ってしてるの！？と言ったらさっきのフランス女性は洗濯物を見せてくれたと開き直り、全員にセクハラしてることにニヤつくキモさ。 他のサイトの広告ステマ酷かった。 宿泊客に支配欲丸出しで好意に見せかけ支配する。宿としては安全性皆無なのでランク外。評価すらつけたくない。金返せって気持ち。 突然部屋をノックして、酒飲もうと誘ってくる2日連続も。好意的に会話することも一度すらなかった。我慢して返事をしたことが数回。 高額で部屋のレベルは平均的に低く、シャワーに入ると便器は水浸しドア閉まらず、排水口は匂い留守にすると充満する。エレベーターなくて移動がキツイ。 セクハラ拒否の翌日からゴミと使用済みのタオルを片付けなくなったので、ハラスメントを抗議、その後片付けはしたが、最後の日の前日、部屋に来て一緒に朝部屋を確認すると言ってきた。拒絶したら喚き立てる。 最初に聞いてたのは、鍵を返すだけで、何かあればあとからカードに請求するとの話だった。 言ってることが違うし、おかしいしキモいから拒絶したら、突然カードからお金を引き出そうと試すといい始め、勝手にお金を引き出そうとした。警察も呼ぶと言い始める。汚してもいないのに。 オーナーは大人しそうなイスラム女性を呼び出して、この子にもこれをしてるだろと訴え説明させる。 客なのに客のプライバシーを私用することにためらいない。スタッフのくせに個人的に自分のトラブルに客呼び出したくせに本人は謝罪なく私だけにその後謝罪させに連れて行かれる。その子を巻き込んだのは悪いので誤ったけどなんであんたが謝らないわけ？ チェックアウトのとき一緒に居ることは妥協したものの、そしたら態度豹変し、今度は飛行場までついてくると言い出す。キモい！ 時間あれば女性皆についていってると言ったけど私はこんなキモいおっさんと宿出てまで話したくなくて何度も断ったけどしつこくやめない。客に拒否権は無いことになってるらしい。 こっちこそ警察呼んで欲しかった。自分でよべと言い始めたので来なかったけど。 支配出来なきゃ不安になるような人格障害者を静める為だけに会話のボランティアなんて嫌なので、つき合う義務ないと思うしどうせ立会なんて嘘だろうから部屋の証拠写真だけ撮影して逃げます。そうすると後でいちゃもんつけて嘘ついても理由つけて通報されるんだろうな。 会話と立会拒絶罪？ 面倒たけどカード番号とめます。完全に病気。自己愛性人格障害ぽいので相手を所有物とみなしていて、拒絶され逃げられると、俺の金を奪われたかのように嘘をついても発狂しつきまとい支配する人格 The day after he refused to sexually harass me, he stopped cleaning up the garbage and used towels, so I protested the harassment and cleaned up after that, but the day before the last day, he came to my room and said that he would check the room with me in the morning. The first thing I heard was that they would just return the key and charge the card later if anything happened. I refused it .After he said to call the police. But He was a call to like seems easily dominant girl and has ask to explain that she is doing is ok. He was taken away to make me apologize after that without his own apology. I apologized because it was a bad accident for her. But Its just his problem. He never apologized to her. Very creepy but I finally give up will checking room when I check out with him. So, he changed smile and said he want to follow the airport or Soul . Dominate again... He told every girls to do it, but I don't want it and too much the act. So I refused many times, but he didn't stop follow me. Before I refuse , He said that he would call the police . But I just refuse his creepy kindness. That time He try to withdraw money of my card said check number if even though he didn't do anything. Too dangerous. He seems completely narcissistic personalit

Gangnam
I really wanted to enjoy Hotel Cappuccino, they have a great location, accessible to pets, and a hip interior. But my 6day stay at this place was ruined one afternoon when I brought back my lunch to my room but couldn’t eat in my room because it was being cleaned. No big deal, I went to the downstairs cafe and started eating there, but the staff kicked me out because it was for guests who wanted to eat at the cafe. Honestly, there were plenty of tables and it’s not like I was taking away business but they fiercely insisted that it was bad for their cafe business. I asked the front desk if there was a communal kitchen or any space for guests to simply enjoy a meal but they apologized for not having this, and encouraged me to wait 30mins until housekeeping was done with my room. Would I recommend this to any tourist? Only if you’re ok with small spaces and mediocre customer service. Also, their bidets provide enemas! Woohoo!

The hotel is perfectly located in this new trendy place called Ikseon. Lots of small streets with restaurants and coffee shops full of life in the evenings. Walking distance to lots of Seoul hotspots. The room was clean and nice and the staff helped us book a car to the airport. Will definitely recommend this hotel and the location to friends visiting Seoul in the near future

I stayed here for 10 days on this business trip. The location, service and environment are good. The only gym is on the 2nd floor and then take the elevator to the 6th floor. There is a swimming pool and fitness equipment. There is a modern department store next door and Coex downstairs, where you can eat, drink and play.

I came here to see the cherry blossoms, so I chose this hotel by the Seokchon Lake. I went there a little early, so the cherry blossoms hadn't fully bloomed yet, but they were already very beautiful. I will stay here again if I have the chance. The room is large and comfortable. There is a supermarket next to it, and there is a newly opened restaurant on the first floor. This is my second stay here. It's a great experience. I will come again in the future~

Apgujeong/Cheongdam-Dong
I stayed here for 8 days. The reception staff were helpful and polite when we checked in, the lift's very fast. The room appeared clean and had good amenities, 2 bottles of water in the fridge, coffee machine, large bed, we loved the TV above the bath, kido loved the heated toilet. It looks clean, clean bed sheets, then I slide the bathroom door closed and it's pretty dusty. No problem, I grab a tissue and wipe it down, I have a dust allergy. We lost something in between getting out of the cab and sitting down in the room so I try to find it, I look under the bed, it's really dusty and also has rubbish from previous occupants. We could hear the traffic outside but it's a busy road and it's understandable, we didn't find it annoying. There are strict check in and check out times and they won't charge you extra if you stick to these, they need time to clean the room and get it ready (they do need to slide the bathroom doors and clean these though, and under the beds too). I had a shower the next day, the waterfall shower's not easy to use and there's no instructions, but there's a handheld shower head attached to the wall. Great, I thought, that will help, It would have helped, but there's no seal around the bottom of the shower door and there's a gap, and the shower head faced the shower door. 30 minutes later I magage to clean the large amount of water in the bathroom and around the toilet up using towels, and I pop downstairs to let them know there's a problem with their shower. They sent someone up right away, I explained the issue, the shower door is missing a seal, he says 'I can't sort that' and walks out. No more showers then. We get back from a walk at around 8pm, and there's a very high pitched whistle coming from the ceiling in our room. I check the lights, the air conditioning and it whistles for about 30 minutes so I pop to the reception desk and let them know. Someone comes up right away and lets us know it's a valve in the bathroom ceiling, there's a hatch, he opens it up, and it stops. Yay! 5 minutes later... yup, it's back. He comes back and adjusts the valve once again. It stops. 5 minutes later... yup. Then it stops. Until the following evening. I let reception know it's still happening, they send someone out, again, it stops, again, and starts, again a few minutes later. It stops and starts throughout the night, midnight, 1am, 4am, 9am. We're tired, I'm rather grumpy, so we ask to change rooms so we can sleep. They check with the manager and give us another room. The new room has a seal at the bottom of the shower, unfortunately their water fall shower lasts for 1 second if you try to use it as the handle on the door self adjusts. There's still dust on the sliding doors and under the bed. We're exhausted having had a pretty bad night due to the alarm, so we sleep, a lot. We didn't eat in the hotel, it's expensive, there's a little French baguette place not too far away and a Starbucks so we're sorted. The Nespresso only ha
