Hotel Tong Yeondong Jeju

This is an old hotel, so don't expect too much in terms of comfort or modern facilities. We chose it mainly for a one-night stay because of its proximity to the airport — just a 10-minute drive, which was perfect for our early morning flight at 6am. The mattress is a spring type, and you can definitely feel the springs while lying down, so comfort-wise it’s quite basic. However, the location is a plus — there are plenty of eateries nearby, and we also found a wholesale Korean market close by where we picked up some snacks to bring home. Overall, it served its purpose as a convenient stop before catching our flight.

The location was convenient and easy to get to by hopping on a local bus at the airport. The check-in was smooth, however the hotel couldn’t offer me the single room I had booked so I ended up staying in a twin room, which was not a problem. The room in itself had most amenities, but not a mini fridge! That meant I couldn’t store yoghurts or cold drinks. There was no specific WiFi network for the room I was assigned when I searched for it, however there were other open networks for adjacent rooms and I could connect to them with no problem. The water basin in the bathroom leaked some water onto the floor every time I ran the tap, which was annoying but not a huge inconvenience. Jeju island is a heavily visited tourist spot and the hotels here are hence heavily used, the up keep is not always… well keeping up with the wear and tear of the interior I have been told. When I went to check out around 10 am, there was nobody at the counter, so I left my key card with a small handwritten note with some info. This hotel served its purpose for my trip and at a very advantageous price, so I am content.
