It was my first time staying in a budget hotel and I was pleasantly surprised that Hotel Irene City is very comfortable. And though the building is old, it is very clean and all the amenities are readily available. The staff is very friendly and helpful until the day we checked out, when it was raining, they even gave is umbrellas. Very near to transportation, convenience stores, and shopping areas.

A simple hotel, but I loved how easy it was to walk everywhere—restaurants, 7/11, trains, etc. It was quiet, felt safe, and while the room was basic, it was comfortable and cool when needed. The staff were friendly, and I have no complaints at all!

The location really is convenient for everything you need or want. The air conditioning works really well. I noticed that there were bugs and places that needed to be cleaned. The bedding wasn't in good condition and the matress was very hard. The staff were really friendly and helpful.

Tiny home

It’s a small place to stay in but for the price it was very good. The beds were decent and bathroom not to bad. Good for a quick stay or don’t mind staying in a cheap cramped place for a long period for just sleep then it’s perfect. They freely supply extra needs and front desk workers were so nice and helpful.

Staff was helpful, this hotels strong point is the location which is considerably close to the Namdaemun market and to few subway stations. The room was quite dark even with all the lights on.

The rooms are small but very functional. Once you get last that, the location is convenient and the staff is very helpful. The lack of window may throw people off, but you get used to it pretty quickly. Specially after a tiring day out!

Room was tight for a couple of people with luggages but it was manageable and OK for a few nights stay. Hotel is a little on the older side but room and bathroom were clean. Daily housekeeping not provided but they had clean towels for you to change out when needed. Our only problem was the AC didn't blow out any cold air and there was no way to change the temperature or speed so we mainly had it on to circulate air. Thank goodness it wasn't too hot when we visited Seoul or else the temperature in the room would have been unbearable. Hotel is located in an alleyway but I never felt unsafe and it was conveniently located close to the train station.

The hotel itself is a bit old but everything worked fine, we got a room with two beds but they were basically just one since they room is small they have to attached, overall a good experience the bathroom is a bit small so if ur tall u might have to bend down, I would stay there but get a bigger room to be honest, overall good!
