Jinsim House in Hongdea

to leave.

In my case, I mostly used the place as luggage storage, so I expected nothing — and somehow it still managed to surprise me. An experience for very normal people. There is a sign warning about a cleaning penalty; I’ve attached a photo of what was actually under the bed. That sign should be rewritten, as it borders on discriminatory. Also, the curtains need to be washed: they have visible white stains. If anything should be fixed first, it’s the bathroom. The bathroom door is swollen from humidity and doesn’t close, and the sink isn’t properly connected to the plumbing — dirty water leaks out underneath and drains onto the floor. There is no closet. There is only one hook glued onto the wallpaper, which is not properly attached to the wall — the wallpaper is only fixed at the edges and hangs loose in the middle, and the hook is stuck onto that. The TV is mounted crooked, with all cables exposed, and I never found the remote control. During my first week I was traveling in other provinces. When I came back, I found a cockroach. There was no food in the room and I hadn’t eaten there. As a precaution, I covered the drain with a cloth and didn’t see any more after that.

I like the location. It’s close to Hongdae Market

The facilities are inadequate. There is no clothes drying rack or hooks to hang clothes. We stayed for 4 days but were provided with only one small towel per person. There is no bath mat and no mirror.

Comodissima e vicinissima alla metro. Lo staff è staro gentile e disponibile mentre la camera era molto pulita.

Avrei voluto ci fosse stata una scopa per spazzare un pochino e un armadio/attaccapanni. Per non lasciare più sporco o disordinato del dovuto.

Close to Hongdae’s train station

Poor quality/run down room and furniture, bed felt like it was moments away from breaking under us, with random staples in the headboard. Thin walls, conversation audible from adjacent room and hallway. Very small room, shuffling to get around the bed in the middle of the room. Cleaner was still in the room at 4pm check in. Room code that was sent was missing a character but we managed to work out what it was.

Great location, short walk to Hongdae amenities and shops but located in a quiet street

A bit small
