    Great location but toilets aren’t the best.

    Toilet bowl choked twice (first night and third night) even though we barely threw any toilet paper into the bowl. But they came to rectify/plunge it asap. One night the heating system was also down and we had an ice cold shower in the cold night so that was not great either. But they said they were looking into it asap. Shower area also has no door so the water will spread all into the toilet floor and it doesn’t drain fast enough so you’ll have a mini flood unless you use towels to build a little ledge to soak up the water.

    Location was great between two stations which were both interchanges. Near the Cheonggyecheon stream too. Staff were friendly and responded fast to requests and issues. Space was comfortable and all basic amenities given (minus disposables like toothbrush and toothpaste).

    No parking available. Limited movement capacity within the room (despite having booked family room). Undefined bathroom arrangements/ no curtain or shower door - impossible to take a shower without making some big area of the bathroom wet

    You will NOT get what you booked/paid for

    Please be aware that if you book this hotel, you will most likely will NOT get the room that you've booked (and paid for). We booked a room of 20 m2 , but when we arrived the hotel gave us a room of 11 m2. This room was not the one we paid for, and it was so small that we couldt even open our luggage. It was very dissapointing to arrive at the room like this after a long flight. The hotel manager told us he could only give us the bigger room after 3 days (!). Also, he didnt looked suprised by the news that the room wasnt the one that we've booked, so I assume this happens more often.

    Nice hotel close to major attractions. Room was spacious for two people, enough space to open suitcases. It is possible to open the window in the room. A very special thanks to Sungsu at the front desk.

    I was expecting a shower, but instead it was just a bath with a small shower head, which was a bit inconvenient, but manageable.

    When we were in a room, my kid accidently drop the strawberry on the sheet and it stained the bed sheet. At the time, I was not in the room so they immediately run to my grandma room and tell here. I think that is very dramatic and unnecessary. They could have just wait until I come back. When we check out, the guy in the front ask for 30,000 Korean won for the stain sheet since they said it can not be washed and they ask for cash from one of my family member without telling me. The room has a lot of wear and tear not like the pictures.

    Lobby was nice and the location was good.

    The room is small, it was near the pubs area. Night was quiet, but it didn't feel safe. The bathroom is small too, water splashed out when bathing. Price wasn't the lowest but room was too small.

    The room was kinda cosy as it was small.

    The soundproofing in the room was pretty bad:/ All noises on the other rooms came to our room. We heard very clearly what they said.

    Location was pretty good. Hotel was near to bus- and metro station, Myeongdong shopping area and Namsangol Hanok village.

    it has been a really pleasant,cozy stay at stayb hotel! we booked this hotel two days before our trip and stayb really exceeded our expectations! the room we picked were perfect to open and fit in our two luggages-twin room! the staff were very helpful and polite too, and were able to converse in english! i like that stayb is near to two train stations, chungmuro (blue line)and euljiro 3 (sam)-ga (orange line). def a convenient area! it's around 15 mins away by feet to myeongdong! or can consider to take mrt from chungmuro which is a stop away! there are quite a few eateries and a convenience store nearby as well! overall, a pleasant experience here! really enjoyed their rooftop garden! thank you will definitely recommend this hotel!

    Honestly, nothing!

    Contrary to what some said, I had a great stay with StayB hotel. Arrived late on the day of check-in (near mid-night), my family was warmly welcomed by the owner himself. A nice gentleman, he carried no weight and took extra effort to orientate us, and making sure that we have nicely settled down before he made his departure. Despite being a 7 years old hotel, it is so well maintained. Our room was so clean and spacious. Felt so much like home. What's more impressive is that room cleaning service was done every day! Besides making our beds, bottled water and disposable slippers were regularly topped up. What is also commendable is the owner himself, giving us good advices whenever he saw us, including where to go and where to eat. We felt so pampered for this trip! And yes, the location of this hotel so centralised that is right smacked between 2 Train lines, making our traveling very flexible. This is the first and will definitely NOT be last time that I will stay with StayB hotel. Thank you for making our first family trip in Korea a great and unforgettable one! We will be back!

    The hotel was rated as a 4 star hotel, which it absolutely was not in any way. I’ve stayed in Holiday Inns that were nicer than this. Check in was pretty difficult, and the front desk wasn’t super helpful. We dropped our key (the plastic card) while in the elevator, which then dropped down the shaft. They made us pay $20+ for a replacement. There was also a fight outside overnight, and when we left in the morning there were two huge puddles of blood.

    The reception space was nice and the location was close to public transit.
