The building is older than in the photos and it isn't a hostel as advertised, but it worked out fine and was very inexpensive. Definitely needs better directions to find the place.

It was nice to have my own room--though they are quite small--but have all the necessary items. A good-sized window in the room, too. The staff is friendly and helpful. Laundry is free and there are enough machines and dryers. Kitchen on the top floor--small refrigerator in your room. Elevator to use. It is actually a student housing building for students studying for exams, not a hostel per se, but works. The bathrooms, halls, and kitchen are cleaned every day. Close to the subway and buses, a park nearby, and plenty of food vendors and restaurants. The staff is very helpful as are most people on the street if you are lost.

The bathroom was not always super clean but it was decent. You can hear other people talking in the corridor or the neighbouring rooms but usually people are careful not to be too noisy, so it didn't bother me too much.

The place is close to bus stops and a metro station, very convenient to go anywhere is Seoul. It is a student neighbourhood with plenty of cafes and study cafes and a few restaurants nearby, you will see a few other people without it being too crowded and noisy at night. The rooms are small but you have everything you need, especially if you just come back to the room to sleep at night and spend the day exploring. The kitchen has a nice view and you ca, have free coffee and cook if you want. The bed was warm, you have AC, a working mini fridge and good lighting in the room.

My room was adjacent to the kitchen. I couldn't sleep til 11pm with people in kitchen then I woke up again at 3am with people coming back from night out in the kitchen chatting. Was quite noisy and didn't sleep well.

Good value for money, good location. I think the set up is maybe student halls or not like a standard hotel. Perfectly fine for a short stay

The mattress is just a bedspring so it's pretty hard and uncomfortable to sleep on apart from on the back.

The staff is very nice and helpful, the place is clean and quiet, there's a big desk and enough space for all my stuff, it's not too far away from a subway station and food.

The bathroom could be cleaned more efficiently.

Price/value ratio is unmatched in Seoul.

It’s really just for a short stay and just for sleeping. The showers were dirty. No toilet paper in the WC (had to step back to my room which were 3 floors down). But okay for the price.

It’s cheap.

The stairs are overloaded with shoes, this is dangerous and there should be fixed shoe racks on all floors. The cleaning done in the corridors is not satisfactory, they always seem dirty, even after the person responsible for cleaning has passed. Mats at the entrance to toilets and showers should be changed daily. They are disgusting, and with an average of twenty people per floor, it is not hygienic. The showers are always clogged and dirty, and the toilets are disgusting, nothing seems to be scrubbed with a sponge and no surface is dried after the cleaning manager has visited. Even if it's a residence where there are mainly students, everyone deserves an efficient cleaning service, especially in common areas. Shelves in showers should be fixed and toilets should have functioning toilet paper holders, with rolls available replenished daily. And girls' showers should have individual doors. Collective showers aren't very 21st century.

The room is very good, despite the fact that the cleaning could be done better (it was dirty under the bed, there was water in the fridge and old tape on the desk, and the dust cloth is not pass over all surfaces). Elevator, free rice and coffee, filtred water station, laundry service is free, and the location is nice. It's more of a student residence, but the housekeeping absolutely needs to be reviewed at all levels.

Bathroom and showers could be cleaner. Perhaps in such a busy place some reminders, warnings may be useful

Very professionally run. Good features for the satisfaction of both residents, local students and tourists. Homey, private, lovely and sufficient kitchen, useful rooftop. Location is perfect in between two subway stations and many bus stops Close by two parks and the Nodeul Island is 20 mins walk away offering either an art exhibition or concert every weekend. Also perfect place to exercise... Nice spacey bathrooms and showers

Bathroom smelt alot

Having a private room was great. It cost the same as many hostels. Free laundry, rice and coffee all day. Good kitchen and area to meet people. Room had shelves, desk and chair so could do work. Small but don't need much more as a lean to. Good location, cheap and great buffet near by and arcades. Easy train or bus to anywhere. Chill and young neighbourhood.

Showers and bathroom felt pretty dirty, and there was never any toilet paper.

Great location, super cute area and close to the train station. Hosts were kind and very helpful. Kitchen and laundry facilities were great.

no privacy in the shower and restrooms, which also were a bit dirty

good price for a small private room

Love the location. Its convenient with many shops and food around. Easy to take bus and train. The price is very good with the quality. I will comeback.

Not perfectly clean. Room and utilities were a little dirty.

Location is good. Check in and out easy.

It simply felt old and a bit creepy. The shared bathroom area was so dirty with hair everywhere at all times (toilets were clean at least) and just looked like it needed a good proper cleaning. The shared shower shoes (luckily I brought my own) looked so icky. Not to mention the towels they provide are literally hand towels- so so small. The one small towel that sits outside of the bathroom area on the floor was so so brown and dirty. There’s also a no shoe rule in the hallway so you’re expected to step on this unless you hop over.

The location was good. Not too far from the train station and lots of local restaurants, cafes and convenience stores.

It wasn't very clean to be honest, and it was annoying to change the shoes whenever I went to the shared bathroom but I think it's an Asian thing because I know this from Japan. Please add a conditioner too in the shower, there were shampoo and bodysoap only.

It's kind of quiet and good location. Bed was nice 👍🏼

Not the cleanest place, didn't come with any bedding

You get your individual room, perfect if you just need a place to sleep

Stayed in April 2024

My own fault but the location was too far away from where I wanted to be in retrospect. Seoul is a big city so if the things you want to see and do are not close by I recommend you check distances and timings before you commit.

The room was spacious and the air conditioning was great. Staff were friendly and helpful and spoke enough English to be understood

Stayed in April 2024

Only one shower for the whole floor, not really enough, always a little cold. Room is really small but for me it was acceptable

Good price for a single room

Bathroom is cramped, fridge was a bit unclean, no trash can in the room

Very helpful employees, located around good/cheap restaurants, free rice in the shared kitchen and laundry machines free to use, great view from the rooftop area

The common toilet and shower but for the price it's totally worth it. Wall are not too thick but didn't bothered me to have a good sleep. The nearest station is 10/15 min way by walk.

Nice place to stay, my room was wide. The building has an elevator compared to other places I've been. They provide with free rice if you need. There is a convenient store in less than 2 min away. And there is a lot of restaurant nearby. The staff is friendly and helped me out if I needed something.

Good location. The rooms were tiny but compact. The accommodation included free coffee, purified water and cooked rice. Washing clothes was free of charge. The staff was very friendly and everything went smoothly. Would recommend this and I will definitely come again when visiting Seoul

The bathroom was so dirty, and so was the shower. If you don’t showers that two people can be in you should not book here.

You got your own room but you share you share the bathroom and shower. I liked the bedrooms the most and that you got your own key.

Bed mattress quality varies a lot! If you're traveling alone and don't want a mattress as hard as wood, take the double room! Also, the Aircon can't beat the dominant floor heating, so prepare for a very hot room.

-great student's place to meet a lot of interesting, young people -loved the coffee machine, ice maker and the fully equipped kitchen -free rice and coffee -self laundry possible in the same building -very nice and helpful hosts -very well connected to the city center and also to the airport -nice neighborhood
