BAROATO 2nd (Seoul) Hotel Review

On paper Baroato 2nd should be good. I appreciate the staff helping me a lot, however, as a hotel the overall experience was not that great. The room was in the basement and suffered from awful humidity which meant even with the aircon on dry mode everything was wet - skins, sheets, floor etc. On my final night the humidity was unbearable and I checked out and flew back earlier than I originally expected. This is the only hotel I have ever stayed in which has had this extreme humidity issue. If the basement rooms are to be used as hotel rooms then a dehumidifier is a must. Added to the humidity, the room also entitles you to see an assortment of interesting insects both flying, crawling and those of the 1.5 inch hairy variety. Those who love insects should definitely pick this hotel. Other more minor things include a slight smell of sewage in the bathroom and worlds smallest sink with wobbly tap which just seems like poor design. This hotel definitely has potential, but even at the low price point the execution and comfort is not yet at the point where it can be recommended.

Close to a lot of the places in Hongdae so chose to stay here as it was cheaper than a lot of the places and wasn’t too keen on staying at a hostel. They provided me with a lot of the amenities already (shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, etc) so was able to pack really light for my stay. Breakfast is included so really appreciate that after a long night of partying. Overall a great place at a decent price point.

The rooms are pretty much sparkling new and I love the decor , especially the mother of pearl finish on the floors . The staff are extremely accommodating and prompt - faultless .

可以一住再住

民宿走工業風，房間非常乾淨簡約，地板是水泥地加了光油，有種raw的感覺，是我喜歡的格調。職員友善親切，因為民宿在巷尾，門口較隱閉，所以我到門口時確認一下，但民宿職員已主動開門問我是否預訂這裏，令我非常意外。更意外的是招待我的男職員是香港人，說廣東話，非常有親切感(而且很帥)，他還送我暖包，非常貼心。民宿每天提供簡單早餐，一個麪包，一包飲品，包非常美味。地點方面，弘大地鐵站2號出口有電梯上來，轉左會見到starbucks和twosome place coffee,一路直走過馬路，向左走轉入小路再走就到，是旺中帶靜的好地方。
