深夜遅くのチェックインの際は要注意

今回夜遅くに仁川空港到着だったためどうしても宿に着くのが深夜0時を過ぎてしまうので、予約時にそれでも大丈夫か問い合わせました。その時には、ベルを押してくれれば対応するので心配無いとのことでしたが、出発前日午後にメールが届いていて、24時を過ぎてのチェックインはできないので、翌日7時以降にチェックインしてくれと連絡が来ていました。これに気づいたのが飛行機出発直前でした。メールのやりとりの履歴も残っていたので、予約時は対応するとのことだったのにこれでは困る！とメールを送っても返事はなく、じゃあ一泊キャンセルするから返金してくれとのメールには、すぐにNOの返事。Hotels.comに問い合わせても混み合っていてつながらず困ってしまい、韓国の知り合いに相談して電話で問い合わせてもらったところ、対応するとの連絡が来ました。結局深夜のチェックインは無事に対応してもらいましたが、韓国人が問い合わせなればどうなっていたのかわかりません。宿の周囲は夜中は車もあまり通らず、タクシーもすぐにはつかまえられなかったと思うので、宿無しになるところでした。最初から対応できないとの回答であれば、別の宿を探したのに。韓国の友人様々です。 こんなことがありましたが、このチェックイン前のトラブル以外は滞在中特に問題なく過ごせました。 現在はチェックインの欄に24時以降は対応できないとの記載がありますが、万が一飛行機が遅れたりして深夜24時を過ぎてのチェックインになる際には注意が必要です。

친구랑 서울에 놀러와서 급하게 찾아서 들어갔는데. 급하게 연락 드렸더니 정말 12시 자정 직전까지 기다려주셨습니다. 친절하게 잘 대해주셨구요. 객실도 깔끔하고, 인원수 맞춰서 필요한 세면도구도 다 들어있고, 물도 잘 나오고, 잘 내려가고 좋았습니다. 에어컨이 안 좋다는 평도 있던데. 고친건지 제가 지낸 곳이 좋았는지. 그런 것도 없이 에어컨도 시원하게 잘 나왔구요. 굳이 흠을 찾자면 머문 객실의 세면대가 조금 뻑뻑해서 물 조절이 약간 힘들긴 하더라구요. 너무 열려서 물이 너무 콸콸 잘 나오거나 쬐끔 열려서 물이 졸졸 나오거나 적당히 잘 나오게 조절하기 살짝 불편한게 있었습니다. 사람에 따라서는 계단이 약간 경사가 높고, 2층부터 100번대 호실 3층부터 200대 호실인 것은 약간 불편할 수도 있을 것 같네요. 호텔 위치도 을지로4가역 6번 출구 나와서 바로 다음 골목길로 쭉 직진하다보면 바로 큰 돌출된 간판같은 걸로 이정표가 되어 있어서 밤에 찾아갔는데도 위치를 바로바로 알 수 있어서 좋았습니다. 지도에도 나오지만 실제로도 역도 정말 가까웠어요. 저는 다 좋았습니다. 추천합니다.

Great location, so-so cleanliness, friendly staff

Hostel has no elevator and the owner may or may not be there to help you (I had to frantically pack my things the night before my check out as the owner informed me she would not be available the morning after unfortunately). However, the staff are very friendly and try their best to help given the circumstances. The location is very convenient which was the best part of my stay. Single rooms are quite cheap and have an individual wet room with toilet and showerhead, which was really great. Just be warned that if your luggage is heavy, the single rooms are on the third and fourth floors so expect to have to drag it up (although there is a metal ramp on the side to assist with this). Not sure if I'd want to stay here again but seems to be decent compared to other places in Korea, based on reviews by people online. If you're travelling alone and want to be within walking distance of Gwangjang market (a must-go), Dongdaemun, and Myeong-dong (about 20 minutes by foot), this has an ideal location with basic living quarters, so weigh the cost-benefit of it to suit your situation.

The hostel is near to the Gwangjang market and Cheonggyecheon stream. The overall was good. This hostel has plenty of bathrooms. One who wish to book this hostel need to take note that this area was less busy and all shops will be closed after 7-8pm.

旅行者には不向き

立地は良かったし常にいらっしゃる様なアジュンマは日本語が出来て助かりましたが、フロントに人が居ないことの方が多く困りました。部屋は3階と言われましたが実質4階でエレベーターはなく急な階段で上るのが憂鬱でした。上げ下げの手伝いもなくトランクのある旅行者にはとても不向きだと思いました。エアコンのリモコンも部屋には置いて無く６月までは使えないそうです。(お願いすれば貸して頂けました)

寝るだけだとしても…

時期を考えると料金的には格安で部屋も思ったより広かったので寝るだけにしてはいいな！と思いましたが、まずベットがマットとあっておらず寝返りを打つだけでギシギシと音がし、マットだけだったので硬く、掛け布団を半分にしており、包まって寝ました。寒かったら電気カーペット入れてねと言われていましたが、必要ないほど部屋は寒くはなかったです。バスルームが今まで止まったゲストハウスの中では1番良くなかったです。まず錆なども目立ちましたし、付属のタオルも小さめで、汚れが取れきれてなかったりしていました。あと冬だからかシャワーのお湯が出るまでも時間が必要でしたし、なにより水の水量が止まるんじゃないかとドキドキするほど悪く、温度調節も全然出来ないのに水すらも水量が悪かったです。髪の毛を洗うのに苦労するほどの水量だったので、寝るだけのために取ったホテルですが、バスルームが残念すぎました。受付のスタッフさんたちは人柄が良かったですし、朝に食パンとコーヒーがあるのもありがたかったです。が、寝にくいベットとシャワーの水量を考えたらいくら安くてもまた泊まりたいと思うホテルではありませんでした。立地は明洞にも東大門にも地下通路を通れば徒歩15分もかからず着きますし、最寄駅からもかなり近かったので立地は最高でした。

very small, but convenient place

I had the last room at the 2nd floor, it was really hard to get to my room. I couldn't find the room at once. But the staff was very polite and kind. It was really quiet so I had to be really quiet also. And I think the wall were too thin? I guess. I could hear everyone move or go down stairs at night time.

Pleasant

It was a pleasant stay although a few things.... The check out time is too early (10 AM). There is also a $10 deposit fee upon entry. If you go past the 10am checkout time, they keep the $10 deposit fee. The shower is also unacceptably low. Barely any water comes out and the owner had declared it to be like that in all rooms. So this hostel is a pleasant place to stay if you cannot find another lodging anywhere else in Seoul.

最寄り駅は乙支路4街駅で、東大門へは1駅、明洞へは2駅でアクセスでき、ソウルを効率的に観光するにはとても便利な立地です。 部屋の設備や清掃はきちんとしてありますが、安価なのでやはりホテルほどとはいえないレベルでした。 従業員は英語が話せるので、なにか困ったことがあったときも助けてくれます。
