6/10 Okay

This is a very small simple dwelling in the heart of the hustle and bustle. Easy to miss as it’s down a dark side street. The area is very safe, even though it’s dark and initially feels questionable. Stayed here with a senior and 2 kids. The manager is very nice, runs everything including the breakfast and communicated very quickly when we were going to be late checking in. The rooms are tiny so don’t bring a lot of luggage. Wish there was a shower curtain in the bathroom to seperate shower from the toilet. Bed and pillow very comfy. Breakfast included was nice touch but very minimal - toast, jam, boiled egg and a piece of fruit. Stayed 2 days,and would have stayed longer but found hotel a few steps from this one that was way better for $100 cheaper and had a shower curtain in the bathroom with hot water! Over all this was overpriced and underwhelming but the location was great!

The room was awful. One of the windows has a blind that only goes half way down and the bottom half of the window is frosted. This meant that the room was so light all night and I couldn’t sleep. The rooms in serious need of redecorating - marks all over the room. Was generally clean and good location Breakfast was awfuk. Zero selection.

The place is very convenient. The room is clean when we got there but they dont do regular room cleaning. We had to request 2 times before granted. We stayed for a week so it was hard to do all the cleaning our selves. Staff are very polite but Not too many speak english. The bathroom is complete and hot water is available all the time. The beds are very firm.

Right at the heart of Myeongdong Shopping district

I initially got lost. You need to walk within Myeongdong to find it. It's not like you will spot it as soon as you come out of Exit 7 or 8. But it is still a close walk to the subway or better, right at the heart of Myeongdong shopping. The night manager speak little english. But the morning and afternoon staff can. Overall, I had a great time in Seoul. The advantages far outweighs the disadvantages so I am leaving good review.

1. I like the free breakfast provided. 2. There is no 24 hours front desk, I checked out at 5am and still not getting back my deposit money. 3. No daily room cleaning, need to request, and yet they're not committed to clean up. 4. Room has bugs. 5. Overall poor experience, it's definitely not a return back hostel.

Location otherwise overall, I will not recommend this property. Why? 1. Very small room 2. Small towels as in small 3. Free breakfast but no variety, ham, toast, cereals, noodles, eggs- everyday 4. Questionable cleaning process, you can see the towels by the stairs being dried up near trash bins 5. They don’t clean rooms everyday- you have to pay extra to have it clean 6. No staff available after 9 pm 7. Centralized aircondition for all the rooms- we have to complain about befire they turn in the aircondition

4인실 패밀리룸이라 싱글배드에 벙커배드가 있어 좁은건 이해하겠으나 객실 문 입구에 대형 비상구표시등이 있으면 어떻게 자라는 건지... 방에 불을 다 끄면 초록색 비상구 등 불이 환하게 켜져있어 잘수 없음. 원래 객실이 아닌 복도구역을 막아서 객실로 만들었는지 배전반등등 모두 이빙에 있음.
