The property is in a good location to explore Seoul. However there are a few negatives. There’s only one washing machine for the whole hotel, so we had to use the coin laundry down the road. The gym is very small. We were given a room in which the whole walls had glow in the dark stars all over them, this made it impossible to sleep. The toilet/shower in the room are in a glass cube, with zero privacy. Pretty strange

Breakfast buffet looked good but didn’t taste good. I think the food was prepared off-site then reheated. Truly mediocre

Had a last minute layover in Seoul and most of the hotels were fully booked. Travelodge Dongdaemun is a 5-10 minute walk from the heart of Dongdaemun and a 10-minute walk to Gwangjang Market. If you take transit, it’s a few bus stops or few subway stations away from Myeongdong. Airport limousine bus 6001 has a stop across the street at Baiton Hotel. The staff here are very helpful. The queen room I was assigned to has lots of wear and tear and the glass panel adjacent to the sink wasn’t clean. The room would feel tight for 2 people. There is a Wow Pass machine in the lobby and luggage scale. Overall, I enjoyed my short stay here.

Okay stay
Stay was okay. Good room to get if not spending much time in room. Got the triple single bed room, rooms were small with small window. Arrived late and mostly just used the room to sleep and shower which it did its job. A little overpriced for a one night stay for a small room in my opinion.

Rude, not foreign friendly staff, dirty rooms. Not for foreigners. We were greeted by a memeber in the middle of the night arrival who was particularly rude, unhelpful and couldnt even confirmed whether we were at the right hotel or not. He was yelling at us to pay foe the taxi, which we intend to, had we known we are at thw right place. The rooms are extremely dirty and unhealthy.

I like the location of this hotel, which is very close to the area's two public markets where there are many options for street food. Very close to subway stations and a major shopping area (Dongdaemun Design Plaza)., with lots of restaurants. Room small but clean. The only down point is the room does not have good noise insulation so we can even hear people next to us coughing. Staff are good in English and quite friendly and polite.
