The property is located right in the hub of myeongdong shopping street. And if I understand correctly it's one of the closest accommodation myeongdong subway station and bus stand. The rooms are decent with mentioned amenities. The staff at the reception are also really nice. Basically it's everything they have mentioned in best available value.

Location was fabulous - couldn't get better! The staff was so helpful and even helped find a clinic open on a holiday for my sick child. The room was a bit small but all we did was sleep there (so much to do in Seoul! ) so it was sufficient.

The location of this hostel was amazing. It was right in the middle of Myeongdong close to the subway station and all the stores. I was staying in the four bed dorm which was nice and clean with very fast wifi.

This hotel was perfect. The location is ideal if you would like to enjoy the night market or do some shopping. The location has so much within walking distance. We knew the rooms would be small, but it worked well for our family of four and our kids loved their spaces. The staff was really the best part. Both at check in and check out. The staff was phenomenal. They spoke wonderful english and were incredibly helpful. Our flight came in late, and they texted to make sure we knew how to check in if arriving late. They were great about letting us store our luggage as well the next day for our late flight home.

Nice clean hidden little gem

Excellent hidden little gem in the middle of Myeong dong shopping walking street area. Easy to access with airport bus stopping just a 5 minute walk away. Friendly staff especially the young woman in the reception. Helping us getting settled not just in the room but also taking her time to recommend good coffee and food places. We had a bunk bed room with private toilet and shower. Everything tiny but acceptable. Hot water and pressure excellent. Aircon easy to adjust. We slept very well. No view from our room but it didn’t really matter as we left early and arrived after dark anyhow. Nice and clean. No complaints. Small rooftop bar/cafe in same building and a mainstream large coffee shop with some sandwiches on the ground floor. Plenty of food and shopping in the area. Would stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was my second stay at this hostel and I purposely came back as I enjoyed my first stay. The location of the hostel is just great to discover Seoul. The rooms are quite modern though nothing has changed since I have been here 4 years ago. Rooms are though tiny and have no windows. The staff is kind. It doesnt really feel like a hostel though as you hardly see any other guests. So if you ate up for meeting new people this is not for you.

I stayed in a single room. Cleanliness was great. The space is tight but just the right size for a solo traveler who plans to be out and about for the most part of the day. I really appreciate how responsive they are and also appreciate that you can do laundry during your stay for a fee. Also, I appreciate the airport shuttles service they help coordinate. It certainly was helpful getting me to and from Incheon Airport with a tight schedule.
