Philstay Dongdaemun

Good location.

Nothing

Pros: - location is superb located just a few step away from the main road and train station, very close to all shopping malls in dongdaemun and DDP, all in less than 5 mins walking distance. - easy to find food the hostel itself was surrounded by many restaurants with many street food shops alongside on the way from train station, also e-mart (convenient store) is just on the opposite of the hostel. - convenient transportation you can access to 3 main underground line via dongdaemun history and culture park station, you can travel to hongdae or myeongdong without any transfer. - you can leave your luggage before and after check out - I didn’t talk much with employees but I assume they speak fair English

cons: - no elevator i got a room on 5th floor so i had very hard time climbing up and down. (especially on the last day with my 35kg+ luggage) please carefully estimate your body wellness before booking - not all amenities is provided they have free soap and shampoo and towels but you have to ask for it at the counter, which they ran out of big towel for the rest of my stay, had to use small towels instead. - the room is not that clean and not that new.. - water heater is hard to use, either too hot or too cold, take long time to adjust It’s value the money you paid because the location is brilliant but I don’t think I would stay again because the hostel itself is not that comfortable for me

Location. Close to bus and metro stop.

The rooms are extremely small. If one person opens up their luggage no one else could move around.
