Located along the road lined with yellow tents in Dongdaemun, right in front of DDP! The limousine bus stop is also right there! It's not near an entrance with an elevator or escalator, but it's very conveniently located as it's close to the entrances to lines 2 and 4!
The room was 7-8 tatami in size with a double bed, TV, air conditioning (probably only in the summer), a large window with a screen door, 4-5 hangers, and a full-length mirror, and the bathroom and toilet were about 2 tatami mats in size, so it was plenty spacious for a solo traveler.
The shower was between the bathroom and toilet, and I used a large plastic bag over the toilet when using it.
There was only one toothbrush for my 4 nights.
Soap and toilet paper were replenished when they ran out, bath towels and hand towels were changed every day, and the room was cleaned up every day.
The towels were fluffy and very comfortable.
The washing machine was a very large vertical type, so I had a bit of trouble getting it out of my 160cm tall frame, but it was very well-used. Detergent and other things were provided.
There was a simple kitchen, so you could make instant ramen. There was also a microwave there, so you could heat up retort meals. There was no kettle in the room, but hot water was available from the water server in the kitchen.
The staff were also very kind and cheerful.
They spoke to foreign guests in English, but they also seemed to understand Korean and Chinese.
There were often a few young people staying there, so there was no soundproofing, and there was always a lively atmosphere until late at night, so sensitive people may not be able to sleep.
Also, before arriving at the hotel, there were only stairs in the hotel. It may be a bit difficult for people with a lot of luggage. There were only female staff, but when I called out to them, they said in English, "I'll carry it for you! I'm strong!" (I'm quite strong, so I carried it myself...)
The location is great and the cleanliness is top notch, so I'd like to use it again if I have the chance, but the stairs leading up to the second and third floors are very narrow, so I'd prefer to use it on the first floor if possible.
