Ok, so I am FOB here in Dongdaemun. I found a sweet sauna/jimjilbang/mogyoktang (i'm not sure the proper lingo) But it's very nice and two blocks from fhe Dongdaemun Stadium station....

But there are also some other establishments around the corner from my building with that tell-tale "steaming circle" logo... I want to explore them too, but don't want to walk into something unexpected...

Am I safe in assuming that a bulding marked "hotel" with the steaming circle with be a bathhouse? I dont really need it to be a jjimjilang or have any of the DVD/computer rooms or recreation facilities...I'm just looking for the hot tubs.

The steaming circle means that they have HOT water....(hotel, motel, yeogwan, sauna, jjimjilbang)

look for the 서우나 sign if you want the hot-tub.
