- kelly (10/5): - It's old, but it's cost-effective. The location is good. You can go anywhere in Seoul
- Josue (7/5): -
- Ilse (5/5): Tranquilidad - la ubicación estaba bien, pero en un barrio un poco feo, de todas maneras era accesible el metro, las micros, negocios, restaurantes, todo estaba bien en ese sentido. las camas, horrendas, eso si debería mejorar, nos quedamos en una habitación con 3 camas y termine con dolor de espalda por que muy delgados los colchones.
- Thomas (1/5): - Extremely strong smell of mold and sewage in the room. Mold all over the walls, stains on the bedding. We didn't expect much at the price point but the place was a legitimate health concern. Pictures very inaccurate. Do not expect any sort of refund from the owner

- Shantelle Alana (6/5): - Good for budget travellers. Would recommend.
- Baasanjav (1/5): The environment was ugly and scary, and I didn't feel safe - very dirty, not comfortable, no bedding, the blankets were torn, very dirty, my sister and I had 2 children, we were very scared to stay in the hotel for 1 night. There was no information staff or cleaner inside very dirty, not comfortable, no bedding, the blankets were torn, very dirty, my sister and I had 2 children, we were very scared to stay in the hotel for 1 night. There was no information staff or cleaner inside
- Ardila (6/5): Económico pero feo y estrecho - La cocina y el agua caliente El sector tiene un mal olor y el internet era malísimo
- Selma (7/5): Idéal pour les petits budgets - Le logement est bien situé, et la personne qui gère le logement est très gentil et attentionné (m’a proposé de rester dans la chambre plus longtemps car il faisait chaud dehors). Avec mes amis nous avons trouvé les lits plutôt confortables (bien que beaucoup de commentaires disaient le contraire, nous ne comprenons pas pourquoi). Le point faible de cette établissement est évidemment l’hygiène cependant pour le prix des chambres il ne faut pas espérer un 5 étoiles … c’est vrai qu’il y a avait un peu de moisissure dans la salle de bain mais rien de très méchant. Il faut également éviter la cuisine.
- LIMIN (10/5): 性价比高的一次旅行 - 第一次住青旅 性价比也很高 也看到了很多不好的评论 但其实我认为还可以 并没有那么夸张 旅社分两层 无电梯 办理入住也很简单 告诉这里的服务人员你的名字就可以 不用确认护照 这里有公共的厨房 有洗衣机可以用 我认为是一个很划算的住宿了 而且 这里的交通也很方便 离地铁站也很近 我们遇到了这里的旅客 大家也都很好

- Arvid (1/5): -
- Kim (10/5): - A cheaply price and kindness Nothing was there
- ODONTUYA (4/5): Real honest legit review - I liked that there were no staff watching us. It was also close to subway station. It smells, the bunk beds were creaking when we try to move while sleeping, not clean. The hotel looked like an abandoned kindergarten because of the lack of repairment. They didn't gave us toothbrush and slippers. The hallway stinked. The hotel looked like it was collapsing. After all that everyone seems to be glazing the hotel with all the sticky notes of thanking for the "comfortable service". These people are truly blind or too nice or it's just fake notes made by the staff. The staff didn't speak English.
- mac (10/5): - Thank you very much for allowing me to check in early. I was satisfied with being able to use the Cheonbyeon promenade that connects Cheonggyecheon stream.
- Shirley (10/5): Rapport qualité prix impeccable - La proximité de tout les points fort de la ville. Le personnel très gentil et à l’écoute. Machine à laver, sèche linge. Il n’y avait pas d’odeur ou quoi ms bcp de poussières sous les lits.

- Fernando (1/5): NUNCA RESERVAR ESTA MIERDA, NEVER BOOK THIS SHIT..¡¡¡NUNCA, NEVER, NUNCA , NEVER!!! - Que me fui de ahí. En mi vida he estado en un sitio así de cutre, viejo y sucio.
-En la habitación había pelos de mujer por el suelo e incluso dentro de lo podríamos llamar frigorífico.
- El baño estaba lleno de moho en el lavabo y en el inodoro...con el riesgo alto de infección.
- El frigorífico estaba amarillo por dentro, con pelos dentro y hacia mucho ruido.
- El pasillo y las escaleras del hotel sin sencillamente asquerosas.
- El papel de las paredes despegado.
Que a nadie se le ocurra nunca reservar está mierda de albergue. Debería estar clausurado por las autoridades sanitarias.
- Tatyana (8/5): Норм за свои деньги - Очень удобное местоположение, рядом две станции метро и автобусная остановка, недалеко от центра На кухне воняло. Ремонта в здании не было лет двадцать. Комната была на 2 этаже и был странный смеситель воды в душе - кипяток или холодная вода, настроить тёплую воду было очень сложно
- Kseniia (5/5): - Расположение очень хорошее, всё остальное... вводит в депрессию. Душ капец странный, горячей воды не было, окно есть, но оно перекрыто плакатом снаружи, шкафа нет, есть одна вешалка.
- Kang (10/5): - cheap price and good location old
- LIWEN (5/5): - 位置方便, 地鐵新設洞4號口上來走路4分鐘 ,便宜 浴室極小、衛生不佳,有異味,臉盆塞住,水下不去,水管漏水,設備老舊,上下床鋪老舊,搖晃嚴重,爬上鋪須小心
- LUIS ALFONSO (10/5): - La ubicación y el precio estaba excelente. Voy a volver seguro
- Kang (10/5): - cheap!!!
- 凱翔 (6/5): 整體環境跟照片呈現出來的感覺有點落差 實際環境會有點髒髒的感覺(?) 床墊看起來也髒髒的,建議帶自己的衛浴用品。離地鐵站的距離還算近,但民宿位置滿偏的,第一天找了很久。最後就是隔音很差!!!! 外面其他房間有人開門或是走動的聲音都聽得到,而 -

- Bin (10/5): 가성비좋은 숙소.편리한교통 - 서울의 명소인 청계천이가깝고 제기동전통시장이가까워서 좋았어요.교통도편리하고 풍물시장도가까워서 좋았어요
- Lee (5/5): - Location is good The hot water in bathroom
- Mi (10/5): 가성비최고의 게스트 - 청계천과 가까웠고 한국사람들의 삶을 들여다볼수있는 풍물시장도 가까워서 좋았어요.가성비좋은 숙소에서 좋은여행하고합니다
- Esra (7/5): Gut für den Preis. Ausreichend - Gutes Personal.
Gute Lage.
Es gab zwei 7eleven in der Nähe. Bus und Bahn war ebenfalls sehr nah. Es gab viele Restaurants in der Nähe. Kleine Empfehlung: 자매손칼국수 , sehr lecker!!!
Als Gruppe ist es geeignet hier zu bleiben. Die Sauberheit hat bisschen zu Wünschen übrig gelassen.
- Alejandra (2/5): - Ubicación Nadie se veía acargo, cero limpieza y mal olor.
- Jinmi (5/5): 今まで数十回渡韓し、色々な場所のゲストハウスに泊まりましたが、汚さはno1でした(笑)ただ、値段が安いのと、立地がいいので我慢出来ました。もう少し綺麗にしてくれたらとてもいい施設になると思いますが… - 地下鉄、バス停どちらからも近いので移動はとても便利でした。バスで明洞、東大門、景福宮行きました。
洗濯機が置いてあったので、長期滞在で洗濯出来た。 水周りがカビだらけで(事前に口コミ見ていましたが想像以上…)不快だったのと、2段ベッドの下もホコリだらけ…洗っているのだろうけど、かぶり布団も臭くてかぶらず寝ました。
台所のゴミ受けも小さい虫がいっぱい…水を流すと居なくなりましたが…

- Marion (5/5): Relativement un bon séjour ! - Le logement est situé près d’une station de métro (ligne 1), ce qui est très pratique. Nous avons pu accéder à notre chambre tôt, et elle était globalement fonctionnelle. Dans la cuisine, un distributeur d’eau est également disponible pour avoir de l’eau fraîche. Malheureusement, la chambre quadruple n’était pas très propre, en particulier la salle de bain, qui était remplie de moisissure. De plus, les lits superposés étaient abîmés (avec du scotch pour faire tenir les rambardes). Enfin, nous avions parfois de petits visiteurs à l’entrée de notre chambre (cafards). Mais très sincèrement, pour Séoul, le rapport qualité-prix reste bon. Nous n’avons pas croisé de membre du personnel par contre.
- Vishweshwar (7/5): They give the basics, the caretaker is kind and very helpful and prompt. It’s basic and budget. - Location, Staff, Helpful Has potential to be better. wifi was not that great.
- Dirk (5/5): Passable -
- Avontuur (2/5): Poor - The room was very basic. Location was good but not amazing, located near a nice river and walking path, restaurants and convenience stores, but not very close to main attractions. The bathroom was filthy. The door frame was covered in mould. The underneath of the tap was covered in grime, really gross to touch. The bathroom stank so bad we had to spray perfume each time we needed to use it. The shower head wasn’t even attached to the wall!
Overall, Dongdaemun Neighbors is in pretty bad condition.
- Žaneta (1/5): :( - Where to start.
The hotel was really cheap,
so that’s definitely a positive.
And it was in a good location, close to the subway. Now the negatives:
There was mold in the hotel and it wasn’t clean.
Some of the electrical outlets were sparking occasionally.
And three times someone tried to turn our door handle.
The third time, my friend couldn’t take it anymore and went to check the door.
There was a young man behind it, apologizing —
but he kept trying other doors too.
This happened at 3:24 in the morning.
What was he looking for?
There a door open 24/7
On top of that, we found a cockroach in the room.
I messaged the owner asking for a different room.
He just replied that he apologize ,he applied some spray and that he’d move us once another room became available.
After three days, it was clear he wasn’t going to do anything.
So that is all I don’t want be evil or something but this is was really extreme experience.
lesson learned not to take a cheap hotel, take serious review
- Putri (10/5): Exceptional -
- Muhammad (7/5): Good - service and provider need big towel and more pillow
- Sukchang (8/5): Awesome~! - I was concerned about cleanliness and bugs because they were cheap, but they were clean for the price, and I didn't see any bugs. I'm relatively satisfied. I couldn't see the staff very often.
- Jinky (7/5): Good -
- Naia (2/5): if this was a hotel they would’ve been shut down and sued years ago - THE MOLD WAS SUFFOCATING.
being there made me want to die, thankfully there was so much black mold on the property that shouldn’t require any additional effort
- Siti (8/5): Very good! We enjoyed every minute. - Can cook and given appliances. Can leave luggage in while waiting for flights departure for free after checking out. The location of the house is very near the main road and public transportation. At the pantry area the plugs and wiring are broken. Not serviced or changed. We moved all electrical appliances; induction cooker, rice cooker, pressure cooker exc refrigerator inside the room. Pantry area and bathroom smelled a bit musty.

- Naduni (10/5): Ideal stay for a couple who wants to travel all day and to close their eyes at night. :D - I loved everything about this cute stay right beside Sinseoldong Station. Absolutely worth for the money if a couple looking for a place for a week or two, this is a delight. This was our second time visiting Seoul, we were quite familiar with the country. So ideal stay for me and my husband. Thanks Dongdaemun Neighbours. We'll be back some day. :D Nothing at all. :D
- Hussien (7/5): Good -
- Michael (7/5): Cheap. No frills. Good location - It's cheap no frills cheap and the location is good! 5 min walk from the nearest station which is only 6 stops from Seoul station It is what it is it's cheap no frills
- Khayala (9/5): Superb -
- Mariane (3/5): Poor - Price was very honest for what we got and the location is very good also. Black mold all over the place.. dirty spot everywhere. Kitchen is never cleaned up, and a terrible smell coming out from it and spread around the building. Laundry detergent is not replaced. Very bad feeling about it and it makes the place not comfortable at all
- Elif (8/5): Very good - thank you for the help with the luggage!
- Lorenzo (5/5): Passable - Great position cockroaches
- Augustas (5/5): Passable -
- Leslie (7/5): Good -
- Algirmaa (9/5): Superb - Toothpaste and some samples needed for us.
- Carla (7/5): Good -
- Jiamin (10/5): I am satisfied. Good value for money accommodation. - A famous second-hand market in Seoul. An antique market. Cheonggyecheon. Gwangjang Market. A good location for sightseeing. It is not a new building, but it is clean and cozy.
- Murators (1/5): Never
ever stay there - After seeing the place we got shocked because it was unbearable, dirty, old rundown, it is almost impossible to carry our luggage upstairs, such a narrow staircase. I know it is cheap but we are not. The room was not like the one in the photos, misleading, a mattress on the floor, we had to go to another hotel nearby where we had to pay a lot of extra money. Stay away Everything, there was nothing to like. I am sorry for this, there were some good reviews but I couldn't find anythinh
- Chol (8/5): Very good -
- Villa (8/5): The place is cheap and your money’s worth. Aircon is very cool especially if you come during summer. - Cheap and cozy! Location is a liitle bit far!
- Bat-erdene (7/5): Pleasent. - Location, private bathroom. Shower gel, shampoo, wifi. There was nasty smell around kitchen table. There were not noodles in the public kitchen as it was on photo. Very tight stairs.
