Seoul Accommodation
1. Uljiro Co-op Residence
Serviced apartment with fantastic location. Near Dongdaemun stadium, and walking distance to Dongdaemun market and easy access to Myeong-Dong and Namdaemun market. 5 mins walk away from the nearest subway station. many shops nearby, including a 9 floor shopping mall that only closes at 5.30am! yes, shop till you drop! the room is small but very self-contained. it comes with a pantry, complete with stove, utensils and cutlery! strongly recommended for people who don't care for luxurious touches. very good value for money!
