So what are some cheap decent motels in shinchon? went to one last weekend (anytime motel) but it was 50000 won and it didn't even include the basic condoms, toothbrushes etc. are there any clean, decent places around 30000 won?

and how much for "short time" at different hotels? and how long exactly is a "short time"?

the reason i ask is that need to go to motels at least once a week, usually in shinchon, and i don't have a lot of dough.

ssaeng yu!

I went to one there that was 30,000. Right where all the bars are in those back streets. Not bad. They rent videos. So I guess it's a love motel, but whatever.

Ha! I'm bad with names. Has a sign that reads, "Motel" in Korean. Black and white or black and red or black and blue. About a floor or two up. I only stayed there once. I remember it was close to a 7-11 and a bunch of Korean restaurants. Busy backstreet area.

Sorry, that's the best I can do.

And it could've been 25,000.

no you cretin, i get discounts a lot. i'm just wondering which ones are cheaper. i could try going into every motel and ask/haggle, but there are way too many of them.

plus i haven't been here for two years. i signed up for this forum before coming over.

Oh yeah, I know the one, it has some neon on it, and is on the same side of the road as a noraebang. There's a PC room nearby too, if I'm not mistaken...

That's right. There are a bunch of Koreans walking around. Just take a left at the smoking ajumma selling veggies. I believe a Mr. Kim lives nearby.

I saw that motel this weekend. "Blue Motel", but written in Korean (beullu - sorry, had my hard drive reformatted and I can't type hangeul right now).
