88guesthouse

REALLY central location, in the middle of Myeong-dong shopping area. Really pleasant hosts. Nice sized comfortable beds and rice(?) pillows. There is control over the floor heating in the room. There was a tv (though it was mainly in Korean). The breakfast was sufficient and the hosts cooked the eggs and ham on request and delivered it to the room. Very quiet location. There is a mini fridge in the room, so it was handy storing items. There were also hangers and coat hooks provided.

Thin walls. We were next to a bunk room housing at least four. People were always jumping off the bunks and being loud and disrespectful at late hours and early morning hours. This prevented us from giving excellent ratings. Had to sleep with earplugs in and still could hear the neighboring room. Had to knock the walls. Shower was a handle in the bathroom with no designated area for itself. So whole bathroom was subject to getting wet if not careful. May not be a problem for some, but for people who are not used to this style or who have long hair, this might prove to be a bit difficult at first. All the rooms as far as I can tell were on the second floor, with access from the outside. If you are not a climber or have issues climbing stairs, be advised. No stool for when taking off or putting on shoes in the foyer. If you have a problem with this, don't travel to Asia. A couple of chairs/stools would also be helpful to eat there instead of on the bed.
