Be careful when booking!

I made two bookings to stay at this place in Seoul, but I had to cancel my trip due to the ongoing war in the Middle East (my flight via Qatar was canceled).

I informed the host one month in advance and only tried to change the dates, not cancel. However, he was completely inflexible, claiming he wouldn’t be able to rent the property until April 1st and refusing any changes. Even with Airbnb support involved, nothing changed. I ended up canceling nearly 20 days of stay and paying a 50% penalty.

There was a clear lack of empathy and flexibility in an exceptional situation.

If date changes are not allowed after a short period, this should be clearly stated in the conditions - which it isn’t. The listing suggests changes are possible, so be careful when booking.

I rescheduled my trip, but not at this place. In the end, I’m actually glad I didn’t stay here, as I later saw several complaints, including about the cleanliness, which is unacceptable.

Cuidado ao reservar!

Fiz duas reservas para me hospedar neste local em Seul, mas precisei cancelar a viagem devido à guerra no Oriente Médio (meu voo era via Qatar) e foi cancelado.

Avisei o anfitrião com 1 mês de antecedência e tentei apenas alterar as datas, sem cancelar, mas ele foi totalmente irredutível. Alegou que não conseguiria alugar o imóvel até dia 01 de Abril e não aceitou nenhuma mudança. Mesmo com o suporte do Airbnb, permaneceu irredutível, tive que cancelar quase 20 dias de hospedagem e pagar 50% de multa.

Faltou empatia e flexibilidade em uma situação excepcional.

Se não há possibilidade de ALTERAÇÃO após um curto período, isso deveria estar muito claro nas condições e não está, vendem com possibilidade de alteração, então, cuidado ao reservar essa hospedagem.

Remarquei minha viagem, mas não neste local, no fim, ainda bem que mudei pois vi agora que já diversas reclamações aqui inclusive relacionadas a limpeza do local, o que é inaceitável.

I've noticed a lot of complaints about this place, but my experience was fantastic. The area is very close to Myeongdong Night Market (about a 9-10 minute walk), but you don't really need to worry because there are plenty of popular restaurants, eateries, and convenience stores right around the property. The room was very spacious; I brought four suitcases and could fit them all in. The bathroom was clean and the hot water pressure was strong.

Possibly the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The room was dirty, damp, and had a strong, unpleasant odor. The walls are paper-thin, you can hear everything from neighboring rooms. After one day, the water in my room stopped working entirely.

The owners were unresponsive and did not help with any of these issues despite multiple attempts to contact them. While I initially thought it might be a decent deal for the price, after just one night I had to leave and find another place. This property is unlivable and not as advertised. I strongly recommend avoiding it.

The location is convenient and the price is affordable. The walls of the room are thin and we can hear our neighbours clearly. The bed sinks in towards the middle and the pillows are not thick. There is no black out curtain or shower compartment in the toilet. The towel was smelly when I wiped my face on it. An elevator takes us to our floor.

There are cafes and convenience stores close by.

The roads outside have piles of rubbish along the way and there are groups of people smoking or vaping. Lots of bbq stores nearby, not a lot of tourist shopping options within walking distance.

Overall, a value for money accommodation.

To be honest the location is prefect and the host is nice and polite, also the information they provide is so well.

But the room is totally not clean and seems so old and not maintenance well. At the beginning I booked for two night, but after the first night I decided to early check out because the bathroom is the most extremely dirty part.

Actually, even the first night I don't want to stay, but is too late to find another airbnb.

一切都很好 除了隔音效果欠佳

I recommend 10/10. It's close to the subway and walking distance to a lot of places. It's very clean. Perfect nightlife for a meet-up with friends.
