I recently had the pleasure of staying at Cave Myeongdong for six nights. From the moment i checked in, the staff were welcoming and attentive, ensuring that all my needs were met throughout my stay. The location was perfect for my needs, situated in a central area with easy access to public transportation and nearby attractions. Whether i wanted to explore local shops, dine at nearby Halal restaurants, or visit popular tourist spots, everything was within a short distance.

The bathroom has no really shower, but headshower attached to faucet of sink. The bathroom drainage is clogged. But the location was supreme
Response from Property: Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the bathroom drainage and the shower setup. The drainage issue has already been resolved, and we are continuously working to improve our facilities. In Korea, it is common for bathrooms to feature a combined sink and shower head setup, which is why our facilities are designed this way. We will make every effort to ensure you have an even better experience on your next visit. We're glad you enjoyed our location, and we hope to welcome you again soon!

Our stay with Cave Myeongdong was great overall, and we're so glad we chose it. Cave Myeondong is at the perfect place near all the fun stuff but far away enough not to be overwhelemed by people when you want to rest and unwind after a long day of touring. It' also strategically sandwiched by multiple convenience stores when you want a quick bite before leaving for tours or late night cravings. Our check-in was also super smooth despite coming in late. The instructions were laid out clearly that we had no problems for everything.
Response from Property: Dear Danielle,Thank you so much for your wonderful review about your stay at Cave Myeongdong!We are so happy to hear that you had a comfortable and enjoyable time with us.It’s great to know that our location and facilities helped make your trip even better.Your feedback really means a lot to us, and we will continue to work hard to provide the best service possible for all our guests. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!Wishing you all the best and a great day ahead!Thank you again,Cave Myeongdong Team

I arrived easily enough, but there was no one there to check me in, and they did not send the information to the correct email so I could not enter the main door until other people came. They were slow to reply to my messages, so I could not leave the hostel for fear of not being able to enter again. There was never anyone at the desk to help me, and the walls were so thin I barely got any sleep because of the other people living there. I would not recommend this place to anyone. There are plenty of better places to stay.

I am very glad that I found this accommodation at the peak of the tourist season. Excellent location, from the room window and from the guest roof you could see the Namsan tower. There is a laundry room, a kitchen with a cooler and a refrigerator. Although the room also had a mini refrigerator, air conditioning - which was a great help in the heat of +32 ° Thank you very much. In addition, you can at least put a mini nightstand in the room - there was nowhere to put things.

I stayed with my kids. The location is good for the price, but sometimes it was hard to climb up the hill on a hot day. It's okay for the price. If you want a very clean and nice place, avoid it. There's a water purifier in the kitchen, so it's nice to drink cool water. It was nice to be able to use and wash dishes. Towels and toilet paper are provided at the entrance, so you can take them with you. If you're just going to sleep and stay, I recommend it! There's a window, but the paper(?) is stuck, so it feels a little stuffy. The bathroom door didn't close, which was embarrassing, but since we were a family, it didn't really matter. Dongdaemun, Hangang, Hongdae, etc. are not far away, so it was okay.

Response from Property: Hello 😊Thank you for your honest review. Thank you for staying with us despite the inconvenience of the uphill road on a hot day. As you mentioned, the location is convenient for access to major tourist attractions, but you may experience some inconvenience due to the geographical characteristics. We will provide more detailed guidance and explanations in the future to provide a better accommodation environment. Thank you for making good use of the amenities such as the water purifier and dishwashing facilities in the accommodation, and we are glad that you found it convenient. However, we will review the stuffiness of the window area and the inconvenience related to the bathroom door to improve them. We will reflect your valuable feedback and strive to make it a more comfortable space. We are glad that it was a good choice for those staying with their families for a short time, and we will prepare to greet you with a better look next time you visit us. Thank you! 😊

Cafe on the 1st floor, 2-4 living rooms, and an exit to the roof. Room 305 on the 2nd floor. Comfortable room, comfortable beds, window facing the street, there is a refrigerator with a freezer (for ice cream). Three-piece sliding window: mosquito net, double-glazed window with a soundproofing effect (%70), and total black roll. The air conditioner works. The lounge on the roof is gorgeous, open from 10 to 22. Apart from me and my friend, there was no one in the morning. You could drink your morning coffee in silence and enjoy the views of Mount Namsan and the city. The cafe on the 1st floor will provide delicious breakfasts at a reasonable price, for residents there is a discount on certain menu items. The Myeong-dong Station metro station is 5 minutes walk away. The cable car to Mount Namsan is 10 minutes walk away.

This is one of our favorite places, and we are glad that you were able to spend time there in peace and quiet. Thank you for mentioning the cafe on the ground floor and the discounts for guests - we try to create a cozy atmosphere not only in the rooms, but also in the common areas.

You have to go through a long slope to reach the hotel, and there are several stairs outside the door. The weather was not very good that day, it snowed suddenly, and I had to drag two suitcases with me. It was so hard to arrive first. The room was relatively clean, but the two water pipes in the bathroom were loose. The toilet board is loose again. Lack of maintenance Hot water is ok

It's a bit of a hill, but it's conveniently located near Myeongdong Station. It's a compact hostel, reasonably priced, and I had a comfortable stay.
