Hello Everybody,
I'm fairly new in Korea and will be visiting Seoul for the first time this weekend (the 24th and 25th). I'm traveling by bus and won't be arriving until about 3:30 in the morning on Saturday. I need advice on a place to stay in Sinchon that will allow me to check in between 3:30am and 4:00am. I have an appointment at Yonsei University at 9:30am and I'd like to get some sleep and be able to take a shower before I go. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give. Feel free to PM me if you'd like.

There is a Burger King on the rotary. If you face it and turn right, go to the corner and turn left up the hill, there are a bunch of yogwans. I stayed in one for about W30,000.

Ya-ta is dead on. I live right there. You won't have any problem checking in, and depending on the place, you'll get better accomodations than you would at the Hotel Lotte for about 25% of the cost.

Plasma TV, PC, whirlpool bath, etc. for about 3-5만원 for the night. They tend to fill up during the weekends, but if you bounce around enough you'll find one with vacancy.

There are probably 20 of them within a 5 block radius.
