Myeong-dong
The transport guesthouse in the middle of Seoul is quiet and cozy, and the staff are friendly and my family visited their homeland stayed comfortably. It was a great luck to find a place where you can stay comfortably without any cost while looking for a suitable place to do Seoul City Tour. There were many restaurants around, so I could have a food dinner. It was great to have a friendly staff guide the restaurants around.

The young lady at the front desk of the hotel is super good, and the booking on Ctrip is also very fast. We searched for several hotels, but they were all booked and refunded, and the online and offline were inconsistent. This one was booked online, and an email was sent immediately, very much. There is a convenience store around, and you can store your luggage in advance. It's very good. There is a big cockroach in the room, and the trembling slippers are killed. I still hope that the cleaning can be done. thanks

Insadong / Bukchon
Major security and food hygiene issues. Beware! Food hygiene issue: They provide bibimbap + other side dishes for breakfast. The alarming thing is their re-use of the side-dishes. When the breakfast was over and all other guests have left the dining area, the host casually put the unconsumed side dishes back into the larger pots where they are stored. The reason this is alarming is because the side dishes are shared among all the guests, and the sharing nature of the side dishes inevitably means that their saliva will also be shared. Not only is this gross to think about, but this will also potentially promote infectious diseases. Security issue: We stayed in a private guest room as a couple with our private bathroom. The locks were the old Korean style, with 2 sets of 4 sliding doors - one set on the outside, one set on the inside. The outer set of sliding doors have 2 screw-in locks which can be padlocked. The inner set of sliding doors only have screw-in locks. When leaving the room, I had the inner set of sliding doors shut, with one side of the door remaining locked. We were shocked to find that upon returning, both sides of the inner doors were unlocked and opened, indicating that someone had entered our room. No tampering of the padlock was evident, suggesting that this person had the proper keys to the padlock. What was more disturbing was that there was no good reason for anyone to have been there! No cleaning and no rearranging of amenities! We tried several times to contact the owner to no avail. We immediately packed and left after the first night. Value for Money: Quite expensive for what it is. But, if you want the experience of staying in an old-style traditional korean housing, there are several other such guesthouses. Location: Good location. Close to Anguk subway station, palaces and insadong, but far enough from the main road to not be affected by road noise. Cleanliness: Clean enough. Staff: Questionable business practice & work ethics. There is one elderly woman who appears to be helping to keep the guesthouse clean and to prepare meals. She only speaks Korean, and does so very loudly and abruptly. I am a Korean, and this does not bother me as I do have some idea about how some people speak, but my wife found this very confronting. Facilities: Minimal. Very small rooms with no furniture. But this is, after all, a part of the traditional Korean Hanok experience.

Dongdaemun Market
Hotel DM is een vrij nieuw hotel en dat zie je goed terug. Alles ziet er netjes uit. De kamers zijn klein maar modern en schoon. De medewerkers zijn erg aardig! Het hotel zelf is dus prima! Wij zaten er 1 nachtje als overbrugging voordat wij weer naar huis zouden gaan. Toch zou ik hem niet per se aanraden aan mensen die Seoul voor het eerst bezoeken om deze 2 redenen: 1. Locatie. En dit is meteen de belangrijkste. Ondanks de vrij centrale ligging, in de buurt van Dongdaemun met de DDP, is de buurt niet ideaal. Het is een wat ouder gedeelte van Seoul, je ziet vooral ouderen op straat en er zijn weinig hippe cafés en restaurants te vinden. Geen stijlvolle winkels, maar wel een tweedehands rommelmarkt op straat. Voor ons leuk om eens een andere kant van Seoul te zien, maar niet voor mensen die voor t eerst naar Korea komen. Eigenlijk heb je hier dan vrij weinig te zoeken. Ga dan naar Myeongdong, Hongdae, Itaewon, Insadong. 2. Kamers zijn erg klein. Ik had in mijn eentje een tweepersoonskamer, wat prima was! Maar ik kan me voorstellen dat het voor 2 personen erg krapjes is. Daarom is 1 of 2 nachtjes prima, maar meer niet. Kortom, op het hotel zelf is weinig aan te merken maar de buurt eromheen is niet ideaal. Daarom toch 4 sterren. Min 1 voor de locatie.

The location of the hotel was good, 5 minutes walk to subway and 5 minutes to the Gwangjang Market. Room was clean, facilities were rather old. You can wash and dry your clothes in the basement for a total of 600 South Korea won. The staff at the front desk was super helpful and nice. Would stay here again.
