AichiyudexiaocatThe location is fantastic! Although the room was small, the layout was very efficient. I was surprised they even managed to fit a bathtub and had a separate wet/dry area in such a small space – only in Japan/Korea! The great location meant I could pop back to the hotel to drop off my shopping, which saved a lot of time. Plus, if you cut through the Olive Young store next door, you can get to the other side of the street easily. When checking out, you can use the self-service machine on the first floor, which is super quick. Cars can pull right up to the entrance in the morning and evening. At other times, you have to walk a short distance, but overall, it's very convenient – a one-stop shop for eating, shopping, and exploring!

SurongThe front desk staff were incredibly warm and friendly. The room was very quiet and well-equipped, with universal power outlets, so no adapter was needed. The hotel's surroundings were lively, making shopping very convenient. There's a 24-hour convenience store right across the street, and Hongdae shopping street is just a 5-minute walk away.

gaoyangfansThe hotel is well-equipped and located within a bustling business district. Its decor is modern and minimalist. Downstairs, you'll find a variety of restaurants, and it's a short walk to Guanghua Plaza. The bedding is incredibly soft, and both bus and subway stations are conveniently close. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Xingxinghaoma11. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the bustling commercial district. Everything you need for dining, entertainment, and shopping is just a step away. It's close to everything, making getting around super efficient.
2. The cleanliness is meticulously maintained. The entire room was spotless and fresh. There were plenty of dry towels, and the bathroom had no water stains or odors – very friendly for germaphobes.
⚠️Cons:
The room space is really cramped. There's no way to open two suitcases, and you can only walk sideways in the aisle. It would be very uncomfortable if you have a lot of luggage.
Summary: This place is suitable for solo travelers who pack light and want to go shopping. If you have a lot of luggage or are traveling with multiple people, consider other options carefully.

mami6578Not too far from Myeongdong, you can easily walk there. It's great that they have a washer and dryer; with the rainy and humid weather these past few days, it was convenient to wash and dry a few days' worth of clothes at once. It's also not far from N Seoul Tower and Gyeongbokgung Palace, and public transportation (bus and subway) is very convenient.

EddrenI had a pleasant stay at this hotel during my trip to Seoul. The hotel was nice and clean, and the check-in process was fast and smooth, which made arrival stress-free. Although the room was a bit small, it was still comfortable enough for 3 people.
One of the highlights is the location, there are plenty of food stalls around the hotel, offering authentic local bites without the overwhelming crowds you’d find in Myeongdong. Personally, I found this area much more enjoyable and relaxing.
The metro station is just a 3-minute walk away, making it very convenient to explore the city.
Travel Tip:
From the airport, take the train to Seoul Station (either normal or express), then transfer to the blue line to Chungmuro Station. If you’re carrying luggage, Exit 5 is the best choice since it has an escalator — just walk toward Starbucks. Otherwise, Exit 7 is a quicker option.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel for travelers looking for a clean, convenient, and well-located stay in Seoul.

Guest UserI have very mixed feelings about this hotel. The hotel itself is a bit run down and the room had quite a few flaws, but the wonderful staff and spacious rooms really made up for it. I can't imagine how people live in 14 square meter windowless rooms in the city center; here, at least, two people can comfortably coexist and enjoy the view from the windows! It's a leisurely 10-minute walk to the metro, and then 15-20 minutes by metro to the city center, depending on where you're going. There are plenty of places around to grab breakfast and even have a nice dinner after 10 PM. In short, if you're not overly picky and your goal isn't to stay cooped up in your room all day, then the value for money is decent! The photo shows the view from the room.

Yohanes Singgih KI honestly don’t know what to say about this hostel. At first, I was relieved to find a place that was this affordable, but I never expected it to be this disappointing. Let me break everything down.
📍 Location
There were two of us traveling, and I booked a room for two people.
I was already a little pessimistic about the location because the hostel is located quite deep inside a narrow alley. The area is not exactly clean or well-maintained, although it was still tolerable. There are two pharmacies nearby, and the biggest advantage is that it only takes about a 1-minute walk to reach the Line 5 and Line 6 subway stations.
I still couldn’t find many food options nearby. The closest convenient option I found was a 7-Eleven, which takes around 5 minutes to walk to.
🏠 First Impression & Common Area
When I first entered, there were a lot of suitcases piled up around the luggage storage area, which made the space feel very cramped, especially with the shoe rack right next to it.
In front of the shoe rack, there is a large touchscreen with a camera that you can use for self-check-in. It supports several languages, which is quite convenient. The machine provides your room number, tips and information about the hostel, as well as the password/access information needed to enter your room. The room doors use smart locks.
In the middle of the common area, there are two large refrigerators. One is for the staff and the other is for guests. If you want to store food, you simply need to label it with your check-out date. So don’t worry—your food is not supposed to be taken by anyone.
Next to the refrigerators, there are four tables and some sofas where guests can sit, eat, or simply wait. The Wi-Fi in this common area worked well.
All guest rooms are located upstairs, and unfortunately, there is no elevator.
One thing that really bothered me was the lack of a public bathroom. If you need to use the toilet before checking in, don’t expect to be able to use one.
I actually asked one of the staff members, “Do you know where the toilet I can use is?” The staff member, who was not very fluent in English, replied, “Yes, there is, but in the room.”
I then asked, “Can I use the bathroom, just the bathroom, and then I’ll leave?”
The answer was basically that I had to wait until my room was ready at 3 PM.
So if you arrive early and really need to use the bathroom, keep this in mind.
🧳 Facilities & Amenities
Some basic amenities are provided on top of the shoe rack, including towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and earplugs.
There is also a small service area next to the shoe rack where you can leave your clothes for laundry. The laundry service costs around 5,000 KRW.
The common area also has a small kitchen. There is an electric stove, an oven, a sink for washing dishes, and even an automatic washing machine.
The oven was not plugged in when I saw it, so you either need to ask the staff to plug it in or do it yourself.
Pots are provided on the counter.
There is also a free water dispenser, along with several sachets of coffee and tea. Paper cups and regular cups are available, as well as chopsticks, forks, and spoons.
🍞 Breakfast
Breakfast is available from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM.
However, don’t expect a hotel-style breakfast. The selection is very basic: bread, instant noodles with the seasoning provided separately, several spreads for the bread, and boiled eggs.
There were different spreads available, including strawberry jam, although I can’t remember all of the others.
Each person is allowed to take only one boiled egg.
For a hostel at this price, the breakfast is understandable, but it is definitely very simple.
🛏️ Room Condition
Now, this is where things became disappointing.
You can see the condition of the room in the photos I provided. The room was quite worn out, and some of the wallpaper was already damaged.
The bathroom is extremely small. You can even see the water heater right next to the toilet. There w

大阪名物This hotel is just right for a 2-3 night stay. My check-in was scheduled for 5 PM, but when I asked if I could store my luggage, they actually let me check in at 3 PM. The nearest major station is Gangnam, so getting around by bus is quite convenient. If you have a lot of luggage, I'd recommend taking a taxi. Given the hilly area, a combination of bus and taxi would be ideal. I chose a standard double room, which is perfect for those who prefer showers. The only minor issue was a slight cigarette smell.

Anonymous UserStayed here again. It's close to Gangnam, and this time, this place was the cheapest.
**Facilities:**
They provide a free water dispenser with both hot and cold water, and a kitchen where you can cook. The hot water and air conditioning both work great. However, the bed rails felt a bit flimsy and wobbly.
**Cleanliness:**
Clean.
**Environment:**
It's comfortable when there aren't many people, but it gets very crowded when full... the space is just too small.
**Service:**
Average.
