Myeong-Dong New Stay Inn

The staff were very accommodating and will an extra mile to make you fill welcome. Keep up the good job.

Great location.

Bed was very hard and the bathroom was quite small.

Very nice

Only one washer and dryer and not available all day long. Time it’s available is when guests are out sightseeing.

We enjoyed our stay here. It is somehow close to public transportation, lots of restaurants to try nearby. Glad we found New Stay Inn. Also, the staffs are friendly. :)

None at all.

The support given by the hotel staff was really top notch. Every message to us was in very well spoken English, there was great instructions with pictures inside the room itself. The TV was already set up in English. It was extremely helpful for us. The property is in a good and well-placed location. There's Chungmuro and Myeongdong subway Station both within a 5-8 minute walk. There's a convenience store on the bottom floor of the building. There's lots of restaurants and coffee shops galore nearby. Included shampoo and body, pretty good value for money.

Our room had poor airflow. Pretty much anytime we walked in there was a bad smell and it felt stuffy. But once we turned the Aircon on it went away. Like most places in Korea the bathroom is a wet room as there's not a shower curtain or anything the water would go everywhere. If there was a mop or something it would have helped with clean up but there wasn't. Also in the room instructions it said that a room cleaning service only happens for guests staying more than 4 days (we were only staying 3) but when we returned to our room after day 2 we found it had been cleaned and some empty bottles and a bag we had been saving were thrown away.

In a really good location, staff were friendly and there’s a convenience store on level 1 which was a plus!However the walls are very thin and we had some noisy neighbours for part of the stay, and there was mould in the bathrooms.Overall a good stay tho :) thank you

Excellent location, very friendly staff from the first contact, to information on how to get to the accommodation, and to the very end. The rooms are a bit smaller, we didn't have any view, but that didn't diminish our satisfaction with the accommodation. The location is really great and we could visit a lot on foot (Insadong, Cheonggyecheon Stream, Namsangol Hanok Village, Namsan Tower). Guests can have free coffee, and for a certain fee you can use the washing machine and dryer (which was very convenient).

Since the room is small, it was a bit stuffy at times, but nothing that couldn't be solved by opening the small window. The window overlooks another building that is very close (you can touch it with your hand). The rooms are not cleaned every day, so you are responsible for the cleanliness of your room.

Location was great, nice and quiet. Washer and dryer was a plus.

Room was a little small for three people.

Affordable, location, comfortable pillows.

We expected someone to check us in but we had to work it out for ourselves which was a bit challenging as new to us.Shower was right over toilet which would leave floor and everything soaking, bathroom needed some updating but the absolute worst thing was an endless very loud sound of running water plus we had to get up in the middle of the night for another dreadful noise outside which my husband supposed was meant to be a fire alarm. Not great after a very long flight and jet lag.Beds were extremely hard and need mattress toppers.

The location is good as the train station is just nearby.

- The cleanliness of the room wasn't clean as there was still litters on the floor. - I really hope in the future that there will be a door latch attach because for safety reasons.- One of the power socket was a bit loose.

Location was great, price very good, manager was very helpful and the pillows were soft.

Beds were hard, shower was over sink and I needed help with the self check in as we arrived late.

Location. Lovely manager. Convenience store in same building. After first day, very peaceful and hallways were clear and tidy.

First day was a shambles. Mess everywhere in the hallways, constant very loud drilling noise, until 640pm (had to ask them to stop, but am grateful that they did when I explained how awful it was going all day and then into the night). I do wonder when they would have stopped without being asked. Bathroom was clean but lots of black mould in corners, and up the walls behind the silicon is pretty gross to see)

The reception area was lovely, there's a microwave and a coffee machine which also dispenses hot water so you can enjoy your convenience store meals with ease (there's a GS25 on the ground floor). There is also cold water dispensers, cups for the coffee and water, towels, toilet paper, plastic bin bags which you can use for your room.The staff are really friendly and pretty chill people which is always a plus. Customer service was solid.The wifi is also super fast which is standard with Seoul!.The location is very good, you're close to all the markets, restaurants and subway stations to get to all the other areas you'd want to go to. just make sure to get a t money card from the gs25 or any other convenience store and a climate card from one of the nearby subway stations for the unlimited travel - It's about 20k KRW for 7 days. (myeong dong, euljiro sam ga or chungmuro should have the climate card).

We booked a room for four (we basically got two double bunk beds) which is fine but the rooms themselves are smaller than we had hoped. With our luggage and shopping it was pretty cramped at times but it's an hostel so I guess it's not really to blame.We were told towels are provided which is true but they're quite small so probably pack a big one for your showers.The bathroom was probably the thing I didn't like most though unfortunately. It seemed like there was black mold in there and there's no hand wash provided but there is shampoo and shower gel which is always welcome!

It was very affordable and conveniently located. Not far from two different subways stations. Also it was close to shopping and had some amazing cafes and restaurants located nearby.

A clean room with private bathroom. I was a little concerned on arrival with how small it was and it was a bit more basic than I had expected based on previous reviews and photos, but it was a fantastic location and in the end I liked the little room. Even the wet room style bathroom which worried me was fine and dried quickly. Great tv options including easy to use own streaming accounts. Good hairdryer, soaps provided, fridge, space to hang clothes and international universal chargers too - very handy. Only met some cleaning staff in passing - they were lovely.

The bed was incredibly hard so that took some getting used to, and the air con unit made a lot of noise. I could only seem to switch it off by taking the room key out of the thing that let you switch on lights etc but even then it was still quite noisy. General smell in the building of damp but it was no issue for a few days’ stay.

The location of this place was great. Very easy to access public transport. Huge plus point bc this place has an elevator!

The room was smaller than what we are used to but it was very comfortable and clean

Terrible stay—dirty rooms, bad service, and unprofessional staff. Never again

Scammed by Booking.com Reviews! We booked this hotel through Booking.com based on its glowing reviews, but here’s what really happened:1.The Room – It was small, which I expected, but the DIRT was unbearable! Dust was flying everywhere, and there were black stains on the walls, including next to the bed, which was absolutely disgusting! I started having allergies after just one night and asked for a room change. They refused. I then requested the room to be cleaned, but they told me they only clean every 4 days! So I had to deal with the filth for 4 days. The lack of professionalism was shocking.2.The Bathroom – Oh my god, it was filthy! There was mold on the mirror and the floor—completely gross. The water pressure was inconsistent, and the heater randomly fluctuated, making the water scalding hot at times. If you want a clean bathroom, this is not the place to stay.3.Reception – Good luck finding them at night. You can only reach them by calling the phone at the front desk, but I spent 5-10 minutes trying to get someone to answer.4.Location – It’s not as close to Myeongdong or the metro as advertised. Expect to walk 7-8 minutes to Myeongdong and around 10 minutes to the metro.5.The Biggest Issue – On the fourth day of our stay, the cleaner entered the room (finally), but when I returned, I couldn’t find my card, which I had left in the cardholder to keep the air conditioner running. I searched the room, but it was gone! I had to spend another 5-10 minutes trying to reach the receptionist. Eventually, they told me the cleaner took the card and either kept or threw it away. This is the first hotel I’ve stayed at where cleaners take your personal belongings!Overall, there are plenty of other hotels in the area. Avoid this one—it’s the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Think twice before booking here! ??

Great location and easy to find. The blackout blinds worked too well but we always got a good nights sleep.

Very good equipment and service for a hostel. WIFI singled out for every room. Easy check-in.

Bathroom could have been cleaner. More flexible check in time

The location is very easy to get to from the airport and main train station. Many interesting areas nearby that are in walking distance, the subway is nearby for when you want to go elsewhere in the city. Staff are very welcoming and respond to messages quickly. The room is clean and for a solo traveler, the size cannot be complained about.

The walls aren't very thick. Some other guests who were staying on my floor were being really loud at night (clearly having a party), I messaged the reception who dealt with the matter and made the group quieten down. But I would recommend cracking down on ensuring people are being respectful at night, but still grateful the staff dealt with the issue when I messaged.
