hopeless hotel

although the location was good, the room was tiny and not very clean. has a gross musky smell (like drain water smell) in the toilet, bed was slanting down on 1 side, room lightings super dim. hotel bf was terrible. only 1 standard bf style. front desk staff was unfriendly; we asked for ONE extra pillow and they just curtly said “NO!” that’s it. overall, please don’t waste money on this hotel. there are a lot of other hotels around myeongdong area. it was a VERY uncomfortable and unpleasant stay. i hope hotel rex will do something about it.

The hotel was built in the early 70s and allegedly renovated in the early 90s. Our mattress was definitely from the early 90s. The location of the hotel is excellent. The staff were very accommodating. I don’t mind a retro vibe but at least update your mattresses.
Ironically, our room was 911.

近くにコンビニが3軒あります。両替所もすぐ近くにあり、中国大使館前よりレートが良かったです。 南大門市場へは5分、明洞も10分程度歩けば行けます。 ソウル駅も徒歩15分ぐらいで、地下鉄を乗るのにスーツケースを持って階段を上下するより、全然ラクでした。 70代と80代が一緒の旅でしたが、タクシーや地下鉄に乗らなくて良かったと言っていました。

ホテルが古いため、客室は広く、スーツケースを2台広げられます。部屋が臭い、またお風呂のシャワーカーテンにカビがたくさんついており、バスタブもついていましたが、お風呂でゆっくりつかる気には全くなれませんでした。タオルも古く黄ばんでおり、ほつれていたり、バスマットも置いていないとの事でした。立地はよく駅もすぐ近く、コンビニは目の前にありました。アメニティも古く使い回しかな?と思ってしまうレベルです。もう利用はしないです。
