Clean and I like that the room has a window for ventilation. You can use the kitchen and there is a place to study, so I like it very, very much.
Overall the accommodation service is good, but I will never stay in the dormitory again Room 207 women's dormitory seemed to have many long-term residents Out of six people, three showered in the middle of the night It says showers and hairdryers are allowed until midnight, so I showered before 12, got ready for bed, and lay down to sleep, planning to shower at 1 At 1 someone came in, moving around quietly Just as it got a little quieter and I was dozing off, one person came in and then left again I kept not being able to fall asleep like that At 4 someone came in and showered They showered until 5 and rustled a plastic bag At 5:30 another person came in and showered I slept so well at Busan Hotel 1 capsule hotel that I thought I'd try a Seoul dormitory too and almost booked Toyoko Inn, but I booked this place instead Mangrove dormitory is the worst If you can sleep lying down in the kitchen where people cook, go ahead In the end I felt I could not keep staying, so I went to a cafe that opens at 8, then to a manga cafe that opens at 10 and slept and made plans

I used it when my child was taking entrance exams; the transportation was convenient and they said it was really good~
I stayed for two weeks because of the interior. I'm satisfied.
Satisfied with the service for the 6-person accommodation. Spacious, comfortable common facilities and friendly managers.

Small but efficient stay!! I will probably use it again when I come to Dongdaemun!!😊
If you go expecting a hotel you might be a little disappointed. Think of it more like a dormitory or student residence for Seoul tourists.
