Five hotel Jongno

Good, clean room.

A bit out of the way of the main road but it’s clean, cheap and a reasonable distance to the subway and other hotspots.

I would not book at this motel again. The staff at the desk tried to cheat us by asking for $50000 wons for an extra key to the room which we pay not knowing it should only be 10,000 wons. When we check out they say it was only $10,000 wons. We disagreed and they looked at their cctv camera and my husband was blocking the view of the money transaction. So it was his words against ours. The owner just sighed and say I know how frustrating it was. They didn’t defend their opinion too much and ended up giving the money. However that left a bad impression on us. Plus hotel in an alley and it was hard to find at night. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone especially over sea customer. Lastly the room has stained on wall and the bathroom door has cracked on it. The only good thing was they cleaned our room everyday.

Very convenient location to market and dongdaemun. There are restaurants close by. They also have a 24 hour automated shop in the hotel where you can purchase snacks or drinks in the middle of the night. However the rooms are a little small for 2 big luggages so you can't have your luggage open up all day. The road into the hotel isn't that great either but it's well lit.

Loved the service, staff was really nice and welcoming. It's just the facilities were a little old. There were rust stains on the towel, some of the wallpaper was peeling off. Plus it was a little hard to find.
