    “Great budget hotel in great location ”

    I stayed for 4 nights from February 3-7 2025. I got a deluxe double room and cleanliness was great, with helpful staff and a pretty decent breakfast is provided free (considering the 2 star rating). You will need to deposit 20K krw when checking in. The room itself is very small and would only suit light travellers. The shower and toilet is combined; which is definitely not ideal however seems to be the norm for 2 star hotels in Seoul. Only negative for me was my room's window had an unsealed pane one of the lower sections, so you could feel a constant small cold air draft, even with the heating doing well throughout the rest of the room. Could easily be fixed with some silicon sealant however hotel has just put a couple rolled small towels over the unsealed section which was not very effective.

    “If you're not particular about the bath, then it's okay.”

    Some reviews mentioned that the place wasn't cleaned and had odor issues, but in my case, I didn't experience such problems and it was good. There were no hairs left behind or trash remaining. There was no particular issue with odors either. Just in case, I left the room's ventilation fan on. The toilet is of the type where you can't flush paper. Instead of throwing it in the toilet, you dispose of it in the trash bin next to it. There are no functions like a bidet. The shower space is very narrow. I was surprised when I first saw it, but it seems to be a common type in Korean hostels. I only stayed one night and planned not to use the shower from the start (I just needed the toilet and sink), so it didn't bother me. If I were to stay multiple nights and use the shower, I think I would look for a place where the shower space is slightly wider and has some sort of partition like a waterproof curtain between the shower space and the toilet. It might depend on the room, but the room I stayed in had a strange structure with a pillar in the center. I had seen reviews mentioning such rooms beforehand, so I wasn't surprised, but it was indeed odd and a bit in the way, haha. I thought it might feel more obstructive if I had a lot of luggage. I could control the room temperature with the air conditioner's remote, including turning it on and off, so there was no problem. I tend to feel cold, and the bedding provided seemed a bit insufficient for the night, so I used a blanket I brought along on top, which was just right for sleeping. (The minimum temperature that night was about 15 degrees, I think) The location was very good as it was very close to the places I planned to go. There were also 24-hour dining options nearby, which was very helpful for dinner after arriving late at night and for an early breakfast the next day. There’s a convenience store right nearby as well. Breakfast was included, but since I wanted to try Korean food outside this time, I didn't use it. I don't know what the meal consisted of, but I was informed at check-in that there is a system where you wash your own dishes after the meal. At check-in, I needed to give a deposit of 20,000 won in cash (it was mentioned in an email beforehand). Make sure not to forget to prepare cash. Since it’s a deposit, it will be returned at check-out. After check-out, they provided luggage storage, which was very helpful. I left my suitcase and could move around freely. I stored it until around 8:30 PM. The reception staff I met were all very calm and responded in Japanese, which reassured me. I was very grateful for that.

    “Exceed my expectation!”

    We are truly loved our stay here. The location is really just above Myeongdong street and subway exit No 5. The staff are very helpful and friendly. They even helped me to call the restaurant that I accidently left my sunglasses since I don't speak Korean. The breakfast is simple but very delicious. We had different breakfast every day. The ahjussi at the entrance also very friendly. The cleanliness in our room and the hostel lobby is top notch. Definitely will stay here again when coming back to Seoul!

    “Nice hostel”

    In the middle of the town, surronded by markets, shops and restaurants. Bus and metro stop just outside the hostel. Perfect location! The rooms are small, but enough for staying comfortable. Heater in the room, as it gets cold in winter because of the big windows and in summer I assume it will get really hot. Cute breakfast corner. Great value for money
