Mangrove Dongdaemun

Highly recommend staying at Mangrove Dongdaemun if you’re travelling on a budget and don’t want to spend a lot on hotels. Safe for solo female travelers too. Great location, only 5 min walk to the subway and close to shopping area and restaurants. Rooms are just the right size for one person and the room was clean and tidy.

Mangrove is at a great location, near DDM exits and near the airport bus stops. I booked the 6in1 room and felt comfortable. There were three bathrooms in a room which was great. No need to fight! Everyone in my room was quiet and polite, which was great! The entire building was kept very clean and I appreciated the amount of spaces they have for people to do their work, chill outside of the room. I particularly love the view from the rooftop, can see N Seoul tower from there!

Convenient location near train station, bus stops and airport bus limousine. Good for solo travelling as there is free washer and dryer service. Will book again.

Travelers, please exit via Exit 4! Though there are a few steps after you tap out from Line 2 to Line 4 or 5 but it’s definitely it’s a better choice than Exit 3 (flight of stairs before escalator). Else you can take the airport limousine as well.7 The surrounding area was not very happening so it’s pretty quiet at night. But APM malls are of walking distances so those can satisfy your shopping needs. Rooms are not VERY soundproof (I can hear ppl cough/sneeze) so please kind in mind as well. But overall, I had a great stay there. It was a small but cozy room with definitely enough space to move around. I didn’t get to explore the shared spaces so can’t comment much on that. It was a contactless all the way from check in to check out so definitely suit those that want minimal interaction.

Very convenient With lots of amenities. Close to 3 subway lines

Very good for one person To the nearest subway station in 5-10min walk
