Was surprised to have to pay extra for a blanket. Most hotels would give them for free to use. Couldn’t adjust the heat and had to open window. No conditioner in the bathroom. Walls too thin, could hear people yelling out in hallway, there was a power outage, bathroom wasn’t clean

Travelodge Dongdaemun was clean, efficient, well located near major attractions in Seoul with close proximity to public transport, restaurants, and shops nearby. The room was quite small; however, it fit our purpose for sleep, shower, and kept our belongings secure - this is not a hotel if you like to spread out! If I had to pick one issue, it was shower water pressure and heat-up, which took fair amount of time on the 9th FL - otherwise, no complaints about this hotel and found the prices quite reasonable for an overall expensive major world city like Seoul. While not my first choice, I would definitely consider another stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Request basic cleaning which includes ( emptying out garbage cans, changing towels, and making bed) beds were never made. On my fourth day, I requested deep cleaning, They changed towels, emptied out the garbage cans, made the bed, but never cleaned the floor. Second night of my stay power went out due to construction on the street. Hotel landline phone never worked and there were no way of getting hold of front desk. looking down from 17th story high there were multiple firetrucks and police cars. I walked down 17 floors to lobby to find out what that happened.. They have never informed guest of the incident till next day on a piece of paper place it on the elevator entrance. I thought that was very poor, communicating with guests of the hotel. By the way, I stayed five nights. Location was good .

Breakfast was a little light in variety, offering western breakfast options and what was more like asian dinner options. Juice, milk and coffee options were good. Overall, worth the $7USD. Room was clean. AC worked well.

The hotel was fine for a 3 star hotel. The staff on the desk were very pleasant. The problem was that the rooms are not serviced. I requested mine was cleaned after 3 days but it was never done during the 6 days I was there. Other guests just got frustrated and piled their rubbish outside their room in the corridor for over 4 days.

Place is small and they lied to me that it was king beds. After paying and getting to the room it was too small for my children to sleep in the bed and they refused to refund my money. I spoke with the manager and he acknowledged his rep/co worker lied and still he refused to cancel. They kept my money and my children and I had to leave and find somewhere else to stay. They ruined day one of my vacation and robbed my $500 USD

Danielle

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very friendly, professional, and accomodating staff. I stayed in a single-bed room (as a solo traveler) for 5 nights. Worked for me as I was out exploring the area most of the time. The hotel is in an excellent location, close to parks and shopping malls. It's also about 15 minutes from Meongdong, which I didn't know upon booking the room. Meongdong is a fun touristy place to walk around and try street food. The single rooms in the hotel are quite compact, so if you are planning to travel with others and/or be inside for lengthy periods, perhaps opt for a larger space. Still, I was very comfortable--bed, bathroom, shower etc. all was well-kept and clean. I also paid for breakfast each morning at a very reasonable price. They offer buffet style with many options. I am vegetarian and was able to get my fill of eggs, fruit...and coffee. I will plan to stay here again when back in the area. Many thanks.
