Avaliações do 57 Myeongdong Hostel

From far the worst "hotel," if we can even call it a hotel, that we stayed at in Seoul. I'm not accustomed to leaving comments, but I think it's important to alert people about the condition of this place. First of all, the hotel, or rather I should say hostel, is located within a building where only floors 11 to 13 are for hotels, and there are only 2 elevators for the entire building, and only one can go up to the 13th floor. You often have to wait for long minutes to use the elevator. Upon arrival, they will ask you for a 20,000 won cash deposit, and the establishment doesn't accept credit cards (which is not mentioned anywhere). Despite booking a deluxe double room for around 100 euros per night, the room turned out to be very small, dirty with mold stains, and a strong smell of dampness. There is a window, but it seems to be sealed shut given the amount of dust at that level. The bathroom is very small, and there's only a showerhead, no bathtub. You literally have to sit on the toilet to shower (see photos). A breakfast with limited choices is included in the "service," but the surprise is that you have to wash your dishes after eating. The only advantage of this hotel is its location in the city center. So, if you're looking for a place to rest, look elsewhere; there are other "real" hotels in the same location at a similar price that are much better.
