Liked: Cleanliness
Location was very good near MyeongDong station and lots of places to eat and convenience stores around. Facility was a bit old but comparatively well maintained. Breakfast bread buffet was fine too. Staff are ok but no one help you after 10 pm and didn't come to clean room although stayed only two nights. Totally it's acceptable for the cost.

Excellent location just a couple minutes from Myeongdong but away from the busy tourist part. The walk from the main street is about 3 minutes, up a hill but not too steep and quite manageable. Stayed in the family room. Not a fancy place but comfortable and decent size room for 4 people. Saw lots of families and a school group of older students, but it was quiet. Has everything you need. Hot shower, mini fridge, wifi. Free breakfast was basic toast or cereal, but still helpful to start the day. Adding some simple fruit (bananas, apples) would make a big difference. The AC in the room struggled to keep up during the heat wave, but was still much cooler than outside. Late check-in was easy, they just sent the door code and left the key for us on the desk. Much appreciated. Would stay here again.

The location is near to train station walking distance to the myeondong market street. The room is clean, but the washroom has unpleasant smell that doesn't go away. But over all it's a decent place to stay.

This was great value for the money! It’s situated north of the crazy touristy part of Myeong-dong and only a 4 min walk to the subway. It was very quiet and convenient. The staff were delightful. David is so great and I very much enjoyed our nightly chats whenever I came back to the hostel. I’d stay here again!

Staff is very helpful and kind. Breakfast is good and simple - cereal and bread. Location is close to the subway exit 3 and there are many restaurants and shops around. Property maintenances is well but the room cleanliness could be improved with a little mold on the wall and dust. Overall is good. Would recommend it!

Spacious and clean room. Not too noisy at night. Good value for money. Great central location within walking distance from myeongdong metro, it's up a small hill so keep this in mind if you have heavy luggage. A basic breakfast (cereal, toast, coffee) is included. Make sure you check OYO rooftop because there are several OYO hostels in the area and first I went to the wrong one.

The staff were very friendly and all spoke very good english. There were family rooms with a private bathroom. There is a bit of a hike to get to the hotel and to bring the luggage to the hostel but they make up for it woth excellent pricing and good information such as guides and transportation aids. Overall it was excellent and would stay with them again.
