Positive: Location is great, close to subway and bus stops, though not a touristy neighborhood. It's near the market so the roads are not very clean. Staff are nice. Room is clean.
Negative: Exterior photos are a lie. It's actually in a run down shophouse with a seemingly host bar on 1F and karaoke on 2F. A bit scary for solo travellers. It said it has elevator to floors. But elevator only go up to5F and if you are on 6F you need to go by stairs. Bathroom not very convenient.
Summary: A bit scary looking but the room is clean

Positive: If you’re in Seoul and can live with just ramen, tea, coffee and water then this place can save you a whole lot during your trip. The staff is amazing. The bed is perfect. The toilet can be challenging if you’re huge like me, but thats not the hotels fault. They have free noodles. Free tea. Free coffee. Free water. Unlimited. Yes. Unlimited. And its very near some famous tourist spots.
Negative: Not the hotels fault to be fair but some taxis find it difficult to locate the hotel through the address given. But Seoul happens to be huge so that is understandable.
Summary: Perfect. Almost.

Positive: The location of this hotel is pretty decent, being close to a metro station, Dongdaemun and Gwanjang Market. The hotel offers free ramen from the communal kitchen, and the beds are pretty comfortable. It's a "you get what you pay for" kind of place. It's a cheap, clean stay in Seoul, but don't expect any bells and whistles.
Negative: This place is somewhere between a hotel and a hostel. The rooms and bathrooms are private, with a shared kitchen area. The rooms have terrible soundproofing. I could hear full conversations from adjacent rooms and people making food in the kitchen area. The bathroom was very cramped. I'm not a big guy but even for me the shower was tight - so tight that the water hit the opposite wall before hitting the floor. The hotel can't really change that now but add another bathroom light - it was like showering in a dark cave!
Summary: An alright place for a cheap stay in Seoul
