The location was really good and a few steps away from the main myeongdong shopping street. the room is no bigger than a walk-in closet but cozy once you get used to it. I appreciated having the private bathroom in the business single room. The staff was also friendly and ready to provide assistance. I was surprised by the good service, despite the low price of the accommodation!

The water temperature wasn't that steady in the cold winter, so I needed to calibrate the temperature for sometime before it was possible to shower. The size of the bathroom door was small and i knocked my knee a few times while getting out of the bathroom.

Excellent location for food and shopping. Room facilities are adequate with TV, Wifi, Micro-Wave and fridge. Room temperature adjustable to cool and warm separately.

Parts inside bath room need immediate repair. Only stairs no lift service - can be difficult for elderly people with luggage.

The price is right. The location is in the middle of all activities. The room is small but with adequate facilities and privacy.

Some parts of facilities need attention to repair.

I love the location so much. Easy to travel by subway because it is at the exit 9 and 10 of myeongdong stn. The staff are very helpful and they can speak simple english. The heated floor kept us warm all night. It is perfect for those who love shopping in Myeongdong~!

The matresses were too thin but it is understood as i purposely booked this ondol room. We stayed at 5th floor (family room located 5th flr) n it is not very convienient if u have small kids u need to go up n down the stairs. However the location is superb.

Nice, cozy place for people who just needs a place to stay. Its also nearby to the Airport Limo Bus and the Myeongdong Station which makes it convinient after a tiring day exploring Seoul.

The single room was too small and has no windows for you to see the outside world, thus it may result in oversleeping.

The guesthouse is located between exit 9 and exit 10 of Myeongdong metro station , which is convenient. The room is small. However, it is clean and you can dry up your clothes in the room.

The room could be a bit hot while the central air conditioner does not work. However, this guesthouse is still suitable for backpackers.

I loved how close it was to the subway, shopping, and all our plans.

The bed was small, but we are pretty tall westerners.

Having a single room was quite nice because I didn't have to deal with anyone else being in there. The restroom was outside of the room and I really enjoyed that. They did have rooms with showers in them, but I thought that would be too hot.

The temperature in your room varied quite often. I was only there two nights, but those changes really bothered me. It would be ice cold in the night then I wake up throwing the sheets off of me. It was very annoying. Also after being at another guesthouse I am wondering why I paid so much for something so small. Plus there is no elevator, the kitchen is small, and there was practically no communication from the front desk with you which made me really ready to move to a new place.

The location is perfect, with walking distance to major attractives. Love this location! The staff is friendly, and willing to help. I met with two different staff when I checked in and checked out. They can even help to me carry on heavy suitcase, and offered short-time luggage storage after I checked out.

The hotel room is small, really small, and the bed sheet is not quite tidy, with some hair on it. Considering the price and location, still acceptable. The receptionist asked me to pay in cash instead of credit card when I checked in, I didn't know why, but still agreed and paied in cash.

Love this place as it's so near to the subway train station; just a few steps walk to the guesthouse and plus bus to airport that is just right infront of the guesthouse. It's so convenience to go anywhere by subway and less than 5 mins walk myeongdeong shopping street. There is tv, hair dryer, towels and fridge inside the room. The girl is so friendly, helpful and good; she helps me to call the shop whether it's open, how to get anywhere and carry my big luggage from level 4. I love this place and definately will want to stay here again if I come.

The washroom and toilet is in the same room. . Sometimes the people who used it to shower forgot to pull back the tab button, whenever u try to wash your hands; the shower fall into my body which is no fun in the winter at -12°. It's not because of the hostel but user problen. ....

Great location, cheap, friendly and helpful staff. Very clean. Get your own fridge and TV in the room and a shared computer.

Room literally a box and was so hot due to the heated flooring I couldn't sleep most nights. The shared bathroom was actually by the stairs away from the room and was always cold.

location!location!location! very handy to shop Myeongdong. Staff kindly help to carry all luggages for us.

front desk is not 24hrs attended--sometimes it can be inconvenient to get help. Our room on level5. It becomes a mission impossible to climb up after a whole day tour in the evening. An escalator will be very much appreciated

- Located conveniently near the subway - the bus limo to airport stops in front of sejong hotel which is like few steps away - nearby myeongdong shopping area

- No stairs =( - it was spring during my stay but the temperature can drop to 3 degrees celcius at certain nights but they didnt turn on central heating at all. When I told the staff my room is super cold he said they dont turn on the heater during spring. Luckily my room has electric blanket. So i survived the cold nights.

The location of this hostel is fantastic - the subway and the airport shuttle bus are right outside the door, which really helps travellers new to Seoul - or Asia for that matter! Staff was friendly, with adequate english skills to give you directions if needed. :) You are provided with towels, a bottle of water, and a hairdryer - as well as the kitchen area which has coffee each morning. The television has many channels if you are unable to sleep and need a distraction. Location is great - very close to shopping district, and short ride to the Palaces nearby.

The rooms were very, very warm, with the bathrooms down the hall being freezing due to the windows always being kept open. There was no way to cool down the bedroom, aside from opening the small window in the room. However, if you opened the window in the room you could hear snoring/talking/television from the rooms next door due to the thin walls. Go with a private bathroom in the room if you can - I wish I had. Beds are very firm, which is good or bad depending on the sleeper :)
