완전 놀랐습니다

다른 후기를 보고 예약한 건데~ 안 좋은 말도 있고, 좋은 말도 있어서 직접 봐야겠다 싶어 예약을 했는데~ 방 상태가 방 마다 다른 건지... 저는 너무 너무 안 좋아서 놀랐습니다 카운터 바로 옆 더블베드 룸이었는데.. 일단 여름에는 모기가 들어오는데 문을 열고 있었고~ 들어가면서 냄새가 났어요 불을 키자, 누렇게 물든 이불이 보였습니다 얼룩덜룩 빨지 않은 것 같은 겉이불.. 침대덮개는 그나마 나았지만 찢어진 부분이 있었고 베개에는 머리카락이... 들어오자 마자 났던 냄새는 화장실인 것 같았어요 오래되서 녹슨 수도관과 무엇이 들어있는지 모르는 세면도구들... 카운터에 물어도 직접 짜서 봐야 무엇인지 알 수 있다고 린스는 잘 찾았지만, 바디샴푸와 샴푸를 바꿔쓴 건 아닌지 걱정이 됩니다...ㅠ 화장실 냄새 때문에 씻는 것도 대충~ (여름이라 더워서 땀 때문에 어쩔 수 없이 샤워만 했죠) 화장실 이용은 하지 않았어요 바로 냄새나는 화장실 문 닫고 이번엔 에어컨을 틀었더니, 먼지가 날리기 시작하더니~ 눈에 보일 정도로 먼지가 막 날라다니더라구요 검은 먼지는 아니어서 막 기분 나쁠 정도는 아니어서 다행이었지만 먼지가 날려서 에어컨을 천장으로 방향을 올려서 아주 어렵게 썼습니다~ 또 묵은 먼지 때문인지 거기서도 냄새가 좀 나더라구요 한국 모텔이 호텔만큼 좋은데도 많은데 요즘 세상에 한국에서 이런 모텔은 좀... 좀 많이 놀랐습니다...ㅠ

Not great

I regretted booking this hotel. The room had a moldy smell. It's probably because theres no windows and no ventilation. It was more like a basement. The only positive aspects are the location and the guy at the reception who is very friendly and helpful.

房間潮濕、有飛蟲、有跳蚤

進入房間有霉味，牆身發霉，廁所連房間有十數隻飛蟲，有跳蚤，被子發黃，像已有4-5年沒有更換過，想叫員工更換房間，只有冷淡地回應地面已全部爆滿，但看到還有空房間，還說只有地庫房間，最後我們要再另外付錢租了另一間酒店住

オススメはしない

予約の際2人部屋だとなっていましたが入ったところは1人でもせまい部屋でした。お風呂のお湯は出なかったです。換気扇もなく夏だったら湿気がすごいと思います。ホテルの周りもモーテルが多く、駅近ではありますが少し治安が悪いような気がしました。 道を挟んだところに大きなスタバがあるのはいいと思いました。

Could have been worst (?)

The room was not well isolated, we could not only hear the outside noise but also feel the air coming in from the window. The room was not in the best possible condition (the floor carpet was coming off a bit, the coat hangers were not very solid...) but the bed was clean and we were given towels. The shower had hot water and no cold water. For the price, it was perfectly fine. Don't expect to be in the best Hotel in Seoul for that price! Otherwise it was very well situated.

酒店有一定年資，部分設施陳舊或不能使用，全層上落為樓梯, 須自備牙膏牙刷。 但勝在交通方便，地點週邊熱鬧，只須步行數分鐘百貨店、超市、食店都有。

Low quality, unclean budget hotel

Location- amazing, Sinchon is a center of activities. With shopping, restaurants and nightlife for all. Hongdae is a short walk away and with the metro station, the whole city is within easy reach. Room- the official pictures to advertise the room are slightly misleading. The size of the room is accurate to show that it is a small room. However, the lack of cleanliness is can not be overstated. There was mold in the room and bathroom which they tried to cover up with foam wall paper. The first room I was assigned smelled of smoke. And after requesting a different room, it had a smell of mildew. Additionally, the walls are thin. So you can hear the other visitors on the same floor walking and talking. Lastly, this hotel can be rented by the hour and used as a “Love hotel.” Staff- unwelcoming, and nonchalant. Understandingly, they were probably college kids, but there seemed not to know of customer service. Overall, This is a budget hotel. I would not recommend this to anyone. The cheaper and cleaner alternative would be to find a jimjilbang (a local spa house).

除了便宜和離車站近, 找不到另一個好理由住這裡了 員工: 講了三次的要清冰箱發霉的狀況, 還是沒有清理 飯店: 一直有異味, 只能噴空氣清新劑, 但是還是一直飄出來; 熱水只要晚上12點, 就可能要在低溫下洗溫水 客房整潔: 只會幫忙清垃圾桶, 也就是說地面,桌面,其它都沒有做清潔動作 客房舒適度: 就是一個可以睡的地方.

Unfortunately this was the worst hotel I've stayed in many years. Budget should not mean dirty. Mold in bathroom shower, no hot water the day we left. Bed linen was ok but room felt like it is never cleaned. Couldn't wait to leave. Only positive is good location and reception was kind.

安いがコスパがいい訳ではない

シーツやタオルなどは清潔に洗濯してあった。タオルは端がボロボロで糸がたくさん出ているが、拭くのには問題ないように見えた。部屋はすごく狭い。壁紙が浮いている。壁はないようなもの。地下の部屋だった。トイレがこわすぎる。文字で説明できない。耐えられずにすぐにチェックアウトした。スタッフは優しかった。

全体的にダメ

外観はおしゃれな感じで期待して入ったら、ゴミだらけで部屋までの階段もゴミやほこりで汚れていた。 部屋に案内してくれた時、慌てて枕を交換していた。部屋に入ったら下水の臭いが充満。シャワーもお湯が出ない。部屋の中もほこりや髪の毛があちこちに落ちていた。備え付けのポットもほこりがかぶっていて使う気になれなかった。

とにかく汚いし臭い。床は靴が脱げないほど。冷蔵庫の下には何か液体のこぼれた後があるし、ベット以外はほこりだらけ。宿泊施設なのになぜ掃除をしないのか、理解ができません。シャワールームは壁に隙間があり、隣の部屋のトイレの音が丸聞こえで、隣の宿泊客の声が鮮明に聞こえた時にはゾッとしました。二度と泊まることはありません。

房間很舊很小，牆壁發霉，窗戶上都是石頭，床單被單上都有紅色的血跡，而且樓梯很小又很矮，也沒有冰箱，走樓梯時要注意頭部，不然會撞到，雖然離地鐵很近但飯店會經過一個斜坡，所以如果行李很重又很大的話會非常不方便，尤其，如果住在酒店地下室的人，樓梯真的非常小又矮
