Seodaemun Thema Reviews

everything you need at this price range. i think the best aspect of this hotel is the location. check in was quick and simple, although the staff don't speak english (you can communicate with them in chinese tho). you can tell that the furniture is quite old, but everything was clean. the bed is comfortable, there's a hot and cold water dispenser, small refrigerator, air conditioner, staff is changing towels everyday. the window could be a bit bigger. if you don't have high expectations, i recommend. would book again:)

When we arrived, we were put into a room where someone was already living, and there were someone’s things lying there. Okay, then we were moved to another room, at our request. But it was also very dirty and there was someone's waste in the toilet that they forgot to flush and there was very little paper left. It felt like someone had just been there before us.

The best motel ever I stayed while I was in Korea The price and cleanliness, the kindness everything was so perfect. I definitely going back there. Close to the subway station and airport limousine bus is right around the corner. They held on to my luggage for over 10days. Limousine bus 6002 would take you to the terminal 1 and 2.

We were in a double bed for 2. The room was rather small but there was a window. The hotel is very well located, it only takes 15 minutes by bus to be in the city centre where the attractions are. I think the cleanliness could be better.A good point is that there is a small fridge and air conditioning. The lady who welcomed us was very nice. I think it's good value for money.

Very very rude was asked to leave while waiting for taxi in lobby.we had left are cases in luggage room while I went to the British embassy in Seoul.on return to pick up cases to travel on the busan they came out pointed at the clock and told us to leave wait outside , if this is what your hotel is like I would not recommend anyone to stay with you

The hotel was far below our expectations, and I had a terrible experience during our two-night stay. There was no inverter or heating system. When I asked the receptionist about the heating, she said she would turn it on, but I felt cold all night. The next day, I filed a complaint with Trip.com, and they said they spoke to the owner who agreed to give us another room. However, when I went to talk to her, she only provided us with an old heater for such a small room, and we were too afraid to turn it on due to fire hazards. Additionally, the door lock was not working, and there was something stuck on the roof. The cleanliness was unacceptable, as there were hairs on the bed. Furthermore, the water drainage in the bathroom was not functioning properly and was also clogged. Overall, I had a terrible experience, especially after paying a reasonable amount for our stay.

It could have been better experience. After booking, I read the Google review which featured a bad experience. I was worried and the same happened with me. The older lady told me to go away in Korean, and said with hands that they are closed. I went to the next shop to find someone English speaking. Though I could not find but I came back in the hope that I will use Google translate to tell her that I have a booking. I tried but the older lady avoided eye contact and did not want to listen. Luckily her daughter came who speaks broken English. She found my name hand written on a piece of paper and allowed me to stay. The owner needs to make some arrangement as these experiences with foreigners seems to be happening often. Another Google review suggested that it could be a love motel, it seems - it could be. It could become a good tourist hotel if the owners take it seriously.

It was hard to find at first but I was able to figure it out. No elevator though the people and staff there are nice

The location of the hotel was definitely convenient — it's very close to the train station and there’s even a convenience store just a minute's walk away, which made getting snacks and basic necessities really easy. However, the hotel itself was quite disappointing in terms of cleanliness. The lobby and hallways had a somewhat neglected feel, and the room didn’t seem very well maintained either; the carpets looked worn and there was a musty smell that was hard to ignore. Also, although the hotel is near everything you might need, the entrance felt a bit unwelcoming and hard to find at first. It gave off an atmosphere that made me hesitate a little before going inside. Overall, if you prioritize location over comfort, it might be worth considering, but I wouldn’t recommend it for those who are sensitive about cleanliness or first impressions.

Good location to train and buses. Lots of restaurants and cafes nearby, hotel room we had was quite run down and bathroom was dirty. We arrived late and was able to check in no problem

Good Price with Good location Standard facilities

Convenient location, I think it was a love hotel? But I’m not sure, it just gave me the vibes hahaha, I probably wouldn’t stay again, but the location was great and just for sleeping it was fine.

Nice place close to bus station and metro. Prepare translator for reception. Clean, room was nice, small but clean and good for rest. Everyday new towel etc.

So good happy
