Location is stellar! Myeongdong station is a 3 min walk away! Next door is the Michelin rated Myeongdong Kyoko. Walk out the front entrance and you have your choice of shops, restaurants and night street foodie heaven. The staff are lovely. Will definitely stay there again.

If location is key and you can tolerate tiny rooms and taking showers next to the toilet sink and bowl, this is the place for your Seoul stay.

U Stay hotel is a perfect location. Place is small but very convenient and very clean too. They provide bottled water which is really nice specially when you’re too tired after a day of sightseeing and such. Staff are remarkably friendly. Highly recommended

Location is fantastic, room is generally okay in terms of cleaniness, room and toilet is really tiny. Bed is pretty decent. Free flow ramen at self-service pantry, amenities, comes with hot/cold dispenser too! For the price paid, i think it's okay! Not recommended for people with kids.

明洞での買い物や食事を楽しめる立地。コンビニcuまでも比較的近かった。駅からスーツケースを転がして苦痛ではない距離。ただし明洞の繁華街でも道はガタガタしているのでスーツケースがスムーズに転がせない点と、人混みが凄いのでなかなか進めない点はあるが、たどり着けば無人のチェックイン、チェックアウト機でスムーズに行動できるのがとてもいい！ カード型の鍵が1枚だけなのでそこは改善して人数分発行できると良い。部屋はベッドしかないが寝るだけなので、外に出た瞬間にお店と屋台がある環境が気に入ってしまった。 シャワーはトイレと近すぎて使用するには気合いが必要。バスタブはない。トイレは体格が良すぎる人は使いにくいかもしれない。 私は韓国旅行は時間との戦い派で東大門で朝まで買い物をするので、ホテルは寝るだけで良。 明洞は朝のリムジンバスが3時台がないので、早朝のリムジンバスに乗って朝7時台の仁川空港発の飛行機に乗りたい人はタクシー利用がオススメかも。仁川スマートパスに登録できていない人は、仁川空港に3時間前に到着しないと出国審査が進まなさすぎて焦る。早朝は激混み。私は空港に2時間前に到着して、事前チェックインをしておいても、ギリギリ搭乗で焦った。飛行機乗り遅れそうな人たちが搭乗締め切られても入ってくるくらい空港が混んでいた。月曜日の朝。早朝の便に乗りたい人はホテルチェックアウトは早めがいい。 ホテル6階のアメニティ置き場に耳栓も置いてあって無料でもらえるので、共同スペースの物音が気になる人は利用するといい。キーを部屋の壁に挿したまま共同スペースに出るときに誤ってドアを閉めると、部屋に人が居ないと入れなくなるのでお気をつけて。 私にとっては便利だったのでリピートします。

明洞の繁華街のなかにあったので夜遅くまで遊んだり買い物ができました。ホテルも掃除は行き届いてるし、スタッフさんがとても良い方だったので安心しました。シャワーがとても狭くて、備え付けのシャンプーは泡立ちがよくなかったのが残念でしたが、この値段で宿泊できるのら最高でした！

明洞のど真ん中の好立地でとても良かった。日本語のお上手な男性スタッフの方がとても良く接客してくれて最高でした。iPadを忘れてしまいましたが取っておいてくれるとの事。年内にまた行ければ良いが、また行った時はこちらに宿泊したいと思います。 難点は、、2部屋借りましたが一部屋はお風呂に仕切りカーテンがあり良かったがもう一部屋はカーテンがなくトイレが水浸し。全部にカーテン設置して欲しいです。それとカーテンが中途半端な丈で結局はトイレの方まで濡れたので足元ギリギリまでの長いカーテンにしてもらえると完璧です^_^ また泊まりたいホテルです。
