Experience of the stay
I stayed at this hotel for three nights on my first solo overseas trip. I was very happy to be given a corner room on the top floor.
I was a bit concerned since it didn't seem like the latest hotel, but in the end, there was no problem being a woman alone!
The main reasons are:
・Both the bus and subway are close to the station, and it's near a major road, so it's safe even at night. Direct bus access to Gangnam and Myeongdong.
・There are a 7-Eleven and GS25 about a two-minute walk away.
・There was a staff member at the front desk who spoke Japanese.
・Good soundproofing.
I walked around until around midnight, and the area had neither too many nor too few people passing by, so I didn't feel particularly endangered.
If you're looking for a hotel just to sleep at after walking around during the day, it's more than enough! I definitely recommend this hotel.
Experiences during the trip
Spots visited around Dongdaemun:
・Dundun's Daiso has the best selection.
・I always go to No Brand at DOOTA Mall.
・The 닭한마리 (Dakhanmari) at 순희네빈대떡 can be ordered from one serving on Dakhanmari Street.
