Pretty good stay, really enjoyed it Owner/Manager were very attentive and flexible. Room lends itself for a great sleep. Had good airco in the heat of the summer. Benefits from central location. Good, cheap restaurants around the corner. Metro very close. Comfortable though -like everything in Seoul- very packed and comes at a steep price. (Smaller cities are much cheaper and have more rooms.) Really enjoyed our stay here. I give high marks as I would like to support the owner. Only expect a basic, affordable tourist hotel so your expectations are fully met.

The hostel is located close to many attractions within easy walking distance, including various palaces. The mattress was very comfortable. The hostel offers many additional services, such as free coffee, tea, and water. There are also hairdryers and steamers for ironing clothes. I particularly appreciated the courtesy and helpfulness of the staff. They found my cell phone, which I had lost in my room, and gave it to me. They went to great lengths to help me with the problem. The girls at the reception were truly kind and incredibly friendly. The people of Seoul are truly special and contributed to my immense enthusiasm for this city. I definitely want to come back.

The hostel is at a great location right next to the Dongdaemun metro station. Walking distance to DDP, Kwangjang Market. The room is tiny but neat. Shower is great. Free unlimited ramen and coffee are provided in public room. Terrace with a view of Heunginjimun. No lift and the stairway is narrow, if you’re with large suitcases you should notice it.

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.
