Pros: The hostel is newer, so it's very clean. The bed is comfortable and they give you two pillows. I stayed in a dorm but the bunk bed still felt like hotel quality. Lockers are easy to use. You can set your own pin. A lot of hostels in Seoul set the room temp too high usually, but the temp was comfortable for sleeping. The shower rooms are large and separate from the toilet. Many amenities (big towel, free floss/ earplugs/ toothbrush, decent breakfast, cup noodles, quality teas)

    It was a very good deal for a budget traveller considering the location, it's perfect and easy access to almost everywhere and everything. For an Asian like me, the room's size was just enough. Special thanks to the staff who let me checked in early coz I wasn't feeling well. Will stay here again if I'm traveling solo to Seoul again. :)

    Money for value a great deal. Location is hard to beat as it's in Myeongdong's heart and connects to many tourist sights even in walking distance, has plenty of bus and metro connection in proximity too. A great start into Seoul on a budget. It was clean and tidy. Free drinking water in the kitchen and other amenities.

    This is a very good budget place. It is well managed, spotlessly clean, excellent location, nice staff. The accommodation style is ‘goshiwon’ - very basic and cheap. So you get what you pay for.
