    The room was more spacious than I expected and it was close to the subway, plus it was close to the big palace. The rooftop terrace is a nice place to meet new people and have a drink.

    Perfect location inside a maze of mysterious alleys. Everything to feel at home, with a helpful manager

    Amazing location, in the middle of Insa Dong which is nearby to most tourist attractions in Seoul. The hostel has also a free breakfast which is great! You can also do the laundry and use the rooftop which has nice view.
