Great staff, but everything else has to improve !
I stayed there for one night and I do an honest and fair review. The staff is super friendly, they help you and try their best. Also the location is super. BUT: the hostel not really ready. There is no kitchen. The stove (dirty and old!) is on the floor right next to the washing machine (very old). There is no table or something. You have to eat in the room or while standing. Bathroom is useable but like everything else out of date. For me it’s okay, I’m a man and easygoing, I’m fine with everything. But someone else should think to go there. The price is super ! Pic is the stove and washing machine in the floor.

You pay a small price and get what you pay. This is one of the cheapest stays in Itaewon and it's conveniently located but I don't think I'll stay here again. Warning, the walls are really thin.

Good value, but you get what you pay for.
The place was very good value. It would probably be impossible to find a cheaper room. It was a room - albeit very small one. It was warm with floor heating which was good. There was hot water, considering the temperature in korea at the moment those were really important. also there was wi fi. There was one toilet for all the rooms so sometimes needed to wait. Also one shower - no sink, so shaving was using tap where shower is. A bit messy, as you come through the corridor there were bags of rubbish facing you at the end of the hall.

This facility is a joke. I booked this place and it was confirmed but upon arrival at the facility the staff said there is no place available and tried to lodge me in their friend's private room which I denied. Never trust these cars and don't ever try booking to lodge with them, they are a big JOKE.

Nice people, cheap room, great location...you get what you pay for, so don't expect a huge amount of luxury. But, my blanket was clean and it is in a good spot. Will probably stay again, since a private room for $20 is a good deal. Just be sure that you don't mind a shared bathroom.

総合的によい
シャワートイレが共同なので潔癖なら、厳しいかもしれない。基本的に丁寧に接してくれるので、気分は悪くならない。立地も梨泰院の界隈にあり、焼肉屋が近くにいっぱいある。コンビニも道路を渡ったとこにあり便利。冬はオンドルであったかい。

価格のみ重視なら楽しめる
繁華街に近く、便利だが騒がしい。 モスクに近く、管理人も泊まり客もバングラデシュ主体。 部屋は狭く、エアコンも網戸もなく扇風機のみ。床には髪の毛や蟻が目立つ。「日本ノ人ハ気ニスルケド大丈夫ヨ。」と、管理人は明るい。とにかくお節介なくらい親切で、タオルもドライヤーも貸すよとか、給水機からペットボトルに水を汲んであげるとか、電源アダプター貸すよとか世話を焼いてくれた。wi-fiは良好。管理人ともライン電話でやり取り。女性含め三人での個室利用で1人1泊千円ほどの格安でしたが、共同トイレ、シャワーには見張りをつけないと入る気にならない。管理人が気を遣ってバストイレ付きの部屋に変えてくれたが、その点以外の環境は同じ。普通の日本人にはキツい。気にならない人にはなかなか味わい深い宿。思い出に残る2泊だった。
