"Our private Booked room was given to other people. After waiting 45 minutes Then we were sent to a new hostel with same owners (its almost 1 am now) to then be given a room with dirty bedding covered in pubes a mysterious brown stain and cockroaches in the corner.

Dongdaemun Signature Tourist Hotel

8/10 Good

"Ok stay. Hotel a little dated, it is located on a good bus route. 20 mins to the markets we wanted to visit. Really good affordable restaurants in the area. Would have liked to stay abit more central but then we wouldn't have eaten at local great places. Would have liked bigger towels and a kettle in the room. Also the bed sheets don't feel soft but comfortable mattress. Could improve in some areas but ok for prince in Korea. "
