I rented two rooms with four friends on a trip to Seoul. The rooms were clean, there was a kitchen and a rooftop, and it was very comfortable. The front desk staff were very kind and spoke Japanese. It's located in the center of Myeongdong, so it's very convenient. The toilet and shower are in the same place, so please be careful if you don't like that.

The location is excellent. There are busy streets right outside. It is also very convenient to eat. The hotel is a little hard to find. The front desk lady is very welcoming. Many foreigners live here. The room is indeed very small, but it is very clean and newly renovated. If you have a lot of things, there is no place to put them. The bed is also very small. When you turn over when you sleep, the quilt falls under the bed. The quilt is not fixed and it is easy to separate the quilt cover when you sleep. Here are some pictures I took to make it easier for you to find it...

The location of the hotel is a bit difficult to find, but the service is first-rate, free drinks and snacks are provided, and the price-performance ratio is very good! You can also store your luggage!

The location is in an alley, so it seemed a little dangerous for a girls' trip late at night, but it seemed okay because there were a lot of people, unless it was very late. The room was, as expected, quite small, but it was perfect for my daughter and I to stay in. The heating was so good that it was hot even in the middle of winter. I turned on the air conditioner because I was so hot while sleeping. There was ramen on the second floor, so I tried some. It was nice because I didn't have to go to the convenience store. I had a quiet and comfortable day.

It's located right in the middle of Myeongdong, so it's very convenient! I ate 10 packets of ramen in 4 nights with the all-you-can-eat option lol The Korean tea was also all-you-can-drink and very delicious! The bathroom and toilet were small.

This is my second time using this hotel. Last time, I arrived late at night and left early in the morning, but I was informed that I could check in at the kiosk, so I was able to check in without any worries. This time I stayed for two nights, and there was a simple kitchen and a machine to make instant ramen on the second floor, so I tried some. There are four types of ramen, and the spiciness is indicated. I also added some skewered meat I bought from a food stall, so it was delicious.

People who visited nightclubs and bars came back late at night and were still not sleeping. They were shouting, laughing, and jumping. They were noisy from 2.30 to 4.30. The hotel called the front desk and no one was there after 10 p.m. I called the platform merchant customer service and they asked me to leave and refunded my money. They also said that this was a hostel, not a hotel, and I could be louder. I knocked on the door and told them to be quieter, but no one paid attention. The Japanese guest next door asked what was going on after I knocked on the door a few times. I told her that it was past 2 a.m. and it was too noisy. She apologized and said she was going to sleep, but she still didn't stop. Not to mention the Koreans in 302 who made the most noise. As a result, the hotel customer service sent a message to my platform 358 minutes later, saying that I had no right to knock on their door, saying that they complained to me that I was making noises, and their attitude was actively bad. All these conversations and the evidence I recorded that night are still there.

Response from Property: Hello, this is Eight Rest. Our check-in time is 3 PM. However, since you arrived at 12 PM and asked us to check in early, we did it right away. We have continuously sent messages to the room guests regarding noise issues, but they have not been followed through, and we regret that. Your words and actions to the staff, such as trashing, belittling Koreans, and threatening them from 3 AM, were not good. We have never discriminated against any race or country. We were also surprised by your attitude of swearing in the lobby again during check-out, making a fuss, and continuously demanding a refund. I think you are a black consumer, and the CCTV footage shows you talking on the phone in the hallway for 30 minutes from 3 AM, swearing, and repeatedly knocking on the door of room 305, which did nothing wrong. We are very sorry. That is all.

Very good location. The only drawback and bad thing is that the hot water in the shower did not work. In the middle of winter the heating was very weak.

Response from Property: Hello, this is Eightrest. Thank you so much for sharing your valuable feedback. First and foremost, we sincerely apologize. We discovered that the hot water valve in Room 301 had been turned off by someone. If you had informed the front desk, we would have taken immediate action. We are truly sorry for the inconvenience caused. Thank you once again for your understanding and feedback.

It was inconvenient that there was no elevator and the changing room was made of glass, so everything was visible since I was traveling with my grown son. However, I was grateful that the ramen, coffee, and water were all-you-can-eat and drink! I had contacted the front desk about storing my luggage, but there was no one there, so I had to wander around again with my luggage.

It was located between Myeongdong Station Exit 8 and Euljiro 1-ga Station Exit 5, so it was very convenient to be able to use the different stations depending on your destination. There was a water server (maybe even a coffee maker?) on each floor, and a kitchen on the second floor where you could make free instant noodles, so you didn't have to worry about late-night snacks. The room was small and had the bare necessities, but it had underfloor heating and the toilet and shower room were clean, so it wasn't a problem. There were only stairs from the lobby to the rooms, so it was difficult to carry suitcases. Also, the only key available was the room lock key, so anyone could enter the front desk or the corridors on each floor, which made me a little worried about security. The angle of the shower head in the shower room could not be changed, so with my height I could only wash my head and body by holding it in my hand.

Response from Property: Hello, this is Eight Rest. Thank you very much for sharing your valuable feedback. Due to the nature of the building, there are only stairs, but the front desk will do our best to help you. Regarding your concerns about security, our shared spaces are always being recorded by CCTV, and each room has its own card key with a different signal, so you can rest assured about security. Thank you very much for using our facility.

Located in downtown Myeongdong, I was able to enjoy shopping until late at night without any inconvenience. I would definitely like to stay here again.
