I stayed here for 5 nights and I did not see any other guest - when I book a hostel, my aim is to get to know people. This hostel has not really an area where you can get to know other people, so I cannot recomand this hostel and next time I rather choose one with a bar or an area where you can meet. This hostel is calm but also very boring.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
立地は明洞から徒歩15分程度で良かったですが、トイレ共用で女子専用トイレは3階にしかありません。 二つあるトイレのうち一つはトイレットペーパーが使えず、 もう一つは便座が壊れており座ると外れてしまいます。 トイレとシャワー室が同じ所にあり、 更に扉に鍵がついていないため、 誰が入ってくるかわからず怖かったです。 シャワー室もカーテンで隔てられているだけで着替え等置くスペースもありません。 2階は共有スペースがありますが、 宿泊した際明け方まで外国人の人が話しており声が筒抜けでうるさくて全く眠れませんでした。 布団や枕も家で使っているもののような感じで清潔さは感じられません。 フリードリンクサービスは良き。 立地は悪くないので、 ただ寝るだけと考えての宿泊なら問題ないかと思いますが、 安全面等考慮するとおすすめはできません。

写真にあるリビング＆キッチンフロアでセルフサービスの温かい朝食が食べられたのが便利でした。トーストや、シリアルに牛乳をかけたり、チーズと卵でオムレツを作っていました。気になったのは一点で、4泊してスポーツタオルが一枚なのが少し不便に感じました。でもバスタオルは借りられても干す場所がないですし、この価格では十分かなとも思います。

中心街から近く行きやすい。 トイレとシャワーが泊まったフロアには一箇所しかなく、すぐ使いたいときは不便を感じる。 値段は安い。 また、朝食もあり値段も安く、また使っても良いかも。

快適

部屋にクーラーもついてて布団もとても良いもので過ごしやすかったです。 女二人だったのですが、ゲストハウスなのに本当にホテルのようで戸締りもしっかりとしていて安心でした。 ですがお風呂が三つ並んでいますがカーテンで仕切られてて奥の方に入るとカーテン開けると他の人がシャワーしてるのが丸見えなのでそこはおしいところでした。

On a budget? Look no further!

Overall a great place to stay if you plan to be out and about in Seoul. The location is pretty good and is about a 10min walk to Myeongdong. The hostel was very clean and the facilities were great. Since I was there to pretty much sleep, it was perfect! I was especially lucky to have the room to myself as well! They have a communal kitchen with tea, coffee and brekky in the morning. Perfect place if you're on a budget and plan to be out the whole day.
