| So far I have stayed in two, Siloam in Seoul, and Vesta in Busan for 12,000 each. No complaints here for those two. |

I've never understood why people will come to Seoul, go to bars and clubs where drinks are around 10,000 a pop, and then don't want to cough up like 20,000 for a cheap room.
Korean NETs have to be the cheapest people in the world. I know we don't make much money, but come on. 20,000 won and you don't have to sleep in a room full of cigarette smoke and kids playing Starcraft. If you can't spare that much, maybe you shouldn't be spending your leisure time in Seoul in the first place. |

Yeah, it's the best option. Not that much really. 10k or 20k at the most.
Some even do laundry. You get a nice hot shower, a shave, maybe a massage, a good meal, take a long nap. By the time you wake/sober up, clothes are done and you can leave feeling like a brand new man. Can't beat that. |

I would also go for the jimjilbang. I've never been to one of those pc bangs with the private stalls and a bench for sleeping but i've heard of them. Regardless, they'll be much more than a regular pc bang. You can find plenty of decent jimjilbangs for 10,000 Won. If you're really on a tight budget, you can find some as low as 4000 Won. Students use them all the time. At the jimjilbang you'll be able to sleep on at least a mat of some sort, lock up your stuff in a locker, and have a shower. Plus, there's the sauna and hot tub.
For sleeping, there's no benefit to a pc bang. |

I fourth it for whatever it's worth, although Jimjilbangs tend to be rather warm even in the areas where people sleep. |

Jimjilbangs are good.
Though I will put in a nice vote for DVD rooms. I've gone into some after long nights of drinking, paid $10 popped in a long movie, and passed out till I was well enough to get to work in the morning.
Lock the door and fall asleep. |
