정체 모를 꾸릿꾸릿한 냄새.... 악취.....

오후 5시에 체크인을 하려고 들어가니 청소가 다 안되있어서 방에 들어가지 못하고 기다렸습니다. 여기서도 조금 불쾌했지만, 참으려고 노력했습니다. 그런데, 방에 들어가서 보니 어디서 시작됐는지는 모르겠는데, 꾸릿꾸릿한 냄새가 방안을 가득차서 방에서 지내는 내내 제대로 잠을 자지도 못하고 괴로웠습니다. 창문을 넘어 들어오나 해서 창문을 닫기도 해보았는데 효과가 없었고, 매트리스 자체에서 꾸릿꾸리한 냄새가 나는 걸로 보였습니다. 꾸릿꾸릿한 냄새가 도를 지나쳐서 정말 제가 느끼기로는, 누가 옆에서 오줌을 싼 것 같았습니다....... 그리고 누군가의 후기처럼 커튼이 제대로 가로등 불빛을 못 막아서 밤에도 방이 너무 밝았습니다. 하룻밤을 묶기에 전혀 싼 가격이 아니었으며, 차라리 비슷한 가격대의 에어비앤비나 돈 더 주고 호텔에 묶는게 좋을 거 같아요.

地點離東大門歷史公園三號出口非常近，交通很便利，但是房間非常小，三人房幾乎沒有活動空間，浴室排水孔只要一開水就積水，非常不好用

무난한 숙박시설이고요. 동대문 관광하실분들에게는 가까워서 아주 좋을 것 같네요.

침대시트나 베게속 자주 세탁 했으면 좋겠어요.2세트나 3세트 여분 더 준비해서 2사이클이나 3사이클 주기로 갈아주심 될 것 같습니다. 큰 돈 드는거 아니잖아요? 이전 사용객들 향수인지 화장품 냄새들이 베어 있는 것 같아 좀 그렇더라구요. 그리고 난방이 좀 약했는지 그날 갑자기 추워진 탓인지 추위를 좀 느꼈답니다. 추울땐 따뜻하게 자고 싶어요. 전반적으로 조용하고 동대문과 지하철하고도 가까워 여행하시기엔 위치적으로는 좋은 것 같습니다.

Simple, friendly hostel

Hassle-free check-in. Cecil, the owner is very accommodating. The surrounding area of the hostel is not very pleasing but close to subway station and walking distance to DDP.

位置非常方便，地鐵及機場巴士都在附近，步行可達東大門。老闆親切，房間乾淨。二樓備有早餐的食材可以自己動手準備。唯一美中不足的是WIFI訊號不穩。

깨끗하고 기분좋게 묵고갑니다 3:)

친구들이랑 같이 시간보낼곳이 필요했는데 게스트하우스 자체가 조용하고 좋았어요! 너무 덥지도 춥지도 않았고 분리수거를 할수있게끔 되어있던것도 좋았고 안내해주셨던 분이 친절하셔서 더 기분좋게 숙박했던거같아요! 침구류는 포슬포슬했고 방 분위기도 밝고 깨끗해서 더 좋았고 화장실도 깨끗했어요!

廁所惡臭

三人房間夠大，但是廁所24小時都發出臭味，而且十分潮濕，有很多小蒼蠅，床單不太乾淨，住宿期間也不會更換，只會稍為清走房內垃圾。職員每天都進房間查看。冬天沒有暖氣，只有職員在晚上才開地板的暖氣，但開了以後空氣又不流通。不可思議的是，附有的簡單早餐有麵包，但過期了幾天都沒有人丟掉！完全不敢吃。民宿附近環境不衛生，街上放滿垃圾。東大門附近有很多民宿選擇，下次不會再住這間
