The location was amazing and near Myeongdong and very convenient everywhere!

Had the worse experience in Stanford Hotel Myeongdong. For context: I was solo travelling, fluent in English but not Korean. Asked the hotel receptionist to book Kakao taxi for me to the pickup point for my group tour to Nami island. She booked the taxi on her phone and told me to go downstairs to wait. After 15 mins, the driver didn’t show up and I had to go back up to the reception (9th floor) to ask her where the driver was. She told me he cancelled. I proceeded to tell her to book the taxi using my KakaoT app instead. She booked in Korean and I boarded the taxi only to be dropped off at a location that was NOT my intended destination. It was a 40 min walk / 19 min bus ride away from my actual destination. It was an absolute nightmare. I had to stop some strangers in the street and attempt to communicate with them in Korean to get directions. It was an empty stretch of road so it was really by chance that they were in the vicinity. Eventually I made it to my destination for the Nami island pickup. If I had been any later, the tour group would have left without me. The hotel receptionist made a huge mistake assuming that my destination was somewhere else instead of clarifying with me why I’m going to that destination. This experience was extremely unpleasant and I am shocked that the hotel receptionist did not type in the address EXACTLY as the one I showed her. Similar name doesn’t mean same location or my intended location. I am never staying at this hotel again.
