Fox Motel

The basic room I booked was very small with a tiny window. I upgraded to a really nice large room for about $10 extra.

Stayed here for an event at the Incheon Munhak stadium because I thought I would be able to walk home. If anyone else has this idea, it's pretty far away (~2 hours) so I would stay somewhere else, or grab a taxi. The area has a lot of restaurants etc, but is a little run down. The front desk person was very helpful and apologized for the huge mural of a playboy bunny on my wall, which was sweet of him, but I thought it added character. The hotel is old and a little dated, but it was cheap and clean enough for me. Pretty good value for the amount of money I paid.

It was conveniently near a subway station but the area was a little sketchy. The motel staff were nice the one time we saw them but the actual room was terrible. It was cramped, not very clean (small blood stain on the covers) and full of mosquitoes! I got bitten more in my 2 night stay than when I go camping. Also the room smelled. We only stayed 2 nights because it was past the point of getting a refund and we were a little short on cash to get another place.

Owner and his wife were super nice. There is very cheap food close to this place, although the area is not as vibrant as seoul. It's also right outside exit 5 of Juan station, which made it super accessible from the airport. Unfortunately there was some people hooking up in the room next to mine, but I couldn't hear it when I was inside the room, just outside in the hallway! So that's a plus. Also a very good value for the location. There was also a computer in my room, which turned out to be very useful. Apparently macs are pretty rare in korea, and I was trying to book a ticket for an event but couldn't because the plugin the reservation site used only worked on internet explorer and windows OS.
