| It is very difficult to find Taxi after 1 pm. I consider it is too far from the center of the city. For a short stay, I perfer to find a hotel in the center of the city.

| When I arrived it was at night and the area looked kinda dirty. During the day it's alrite and the subway is a short 2 blocks from the hotel. The subway is all you need to get around Seoul. My hotel room wasn't big but it wasn't that small either. It was clean and comfortable enough to sleep in. I was out all day all night and spent about 4-5 hours in my room each day to just sleep. Housekeeping was great and I didn't have anything stolen from me. I didn't go to the front desk once for any complaints or questions. I guess my only complaint was the cable channels were boring but who goes to Korea to watch TV? I am planning to go back to Korea next year and I am planning to stay at this hotel again at a very affordable price :)

| Considering how expensive staying in Seoul can be, it is relatively of a good value (money-wise). Bathroom tiles are extremely slippery. Unlike other areas in Seoul, there are not many eateries around the hotel. If one wants a decent meal, which is readily available in other neighborhoods, one should not expect to get it around the hotel (I always had to eat dinner BEFORE I get to Yanpyoung station subway). Hotel staff are generally okay except occassional female staff's blank starings at you and blunt replies when you ask questions. The hotel charges for internet access, which surprised me since I know how well wired the entire city of Seoul is. Watch out for mosquitos. One best thing about the hotel is its easy access to a subway station (less than 2 minutes).

| I've stayed in a multitude of Hotels in Seoul and found them all to be extremely pricy unless one wishes to stay in a low quality motel, which runs nearly the same price as Oh Mok Gyo Co-Op. The location is fairly convenient, and taxi's are almost always waiting outside. The best comparison of the Co-Op I can make is it's quite like a giant Youth Hostel. A Laundry room is on each floor, along with iron and ironing board, the rooms have a television and phone, hotplate, sink, and a standard korean bathroom (entire bathroom is the shower as well). The floors are On-Dol (Heated) as well. Service in the hotel is simple, front desk and maid service every 2 days. onstairs has a convenient store for needed supplies, and a resteraunt in the hotel too. Location is decent, the immediate area is bare of entertainment businesses, because it is primarily residential. But a short taxi ride, or 30 minutes on the subway will bring you within some of the citie's largest areas for colleges and entertainment. If you don't speak korean, no worries, as someone nearby will always speak english.

| The hotel is a co-op hotel, which basically means you get a little hot plate, utensils, kitchen sink and microwave and fridge and the maid service is every other day. The rooms are modern and everywhere is well lit. Very small but functional bathrooms. There is a 24-hour convenience store in the lower level that is great for midnight snacks. There is a Korean buffet restaurant for breakfast and lunch too. It's one block from the Yeongpyang subway stop (train #5).

| Location is not so convenient, unless u take a taxi (say 10-15 minutes to Yoido). But, yangpeyong station of Subway no. 5 is just 2 minutes on foot. There is a 24 hour convenience store at the basement and the coffee house cum bar at the first floor open till late ( I think 2 am ). Almost no english speaking food shop nearby, except a friend chicken shop (funnily called DFC), just steps away; the owner can speak english and very friendly. In fact a watering hole for locals including salarimen. Great front desk. English speaking, friendly and very up-to-date with information. If you are student, great place to stay as many students visitors stay there in groups.

| Good Location, Nice staffs. Studio setting is a bit small, especially the bathroom is really tiny- You will have trouble not getting the toilet wet while you are showering. No cordination among 5 different elevators. Overall, it would be fair to say, it can be a pleasant stay. One thing really bothered me though is that there are too many mosquitos even if I stayed in the highest floor, due to the adjacent lake.

| Good location, train station is 5 min. walk. Also college students live there so there are english speakers around. good service. they dony have a shuttle bus to/from hotel. YOu cant go wrong for this budget hotel. the trains in Seoul is great so the location is not a problem. ALso you will not be alone, there are hundreds of travelers staying there. For teh money it is great, NOt to mention the rooms are mini apts. Own fridge,microwave, closet etc. *atleast mine was. Hhave a greattime
