“K-Guesthouse Dongdaemun 5 places you squarely in the heart of Seoul's vibrant shopping district, steps from subway lines and the architecturally striking Dongdaemun Design Plaza. While rooms lean toward the compact side typical of Asian guesthouses, expect spotless accommodations and comfortable beds. If you're packing heavy, be mindful of the fifth-floor location and absence of an elevator.”
