10.0 Great stay - Abet 01-06-2025

Review: I stayed for 3 days and it was pleasant. In the beginning it was a bit difficult for me to find the location but i finally managed to get there - take exit 3 myong-dong station and look to the left where there’s a sign of Seoul and the pacific hotel and then follow the left path a long the way till you see the 2nd 7/11store. The guesthouse is behind it left side. nThe young guy in the reception was really nice and good looking with good English too. He offered to pick me up around there bc i was lost in finding the location of the guesthouse, but i finally managed. Thank you! Appreciate the offer.

9.6 Would come back for my futire trips - Gwen 08-04-2025

Review: First time staying at a hostel and I enjoyed my stay. The only problem is the recpetion is not usually there on time (10am) but other than everything was excellent

9.0 Safe and good condition. The property is well maintained. - Janet 10-04-2025

Positive points: It is in a very nice location. The staff is very helpful and friendly. We didn’t take full advantage of the facilities. They have a basement and rooftop we never used. It is not fancy because it is a fancy hostel, basically, but reasonable price, safe, great location, nice condition…good stay.

Negative points: The beds were not the most comfortable. They seem like IKEA spring mattresses. A topper would help.

9.0 Great location! - Amanda 10-04-2025

Positive points: First off let me start by saying the location of this place is amazing. It’s walkable to bus and train stops. It’s so close to the night market, and walkable to the cable car and Seoul Tower. Loved the location. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. My only complaint was that the beds were very uncomfortable and super loud every time you move. If you have back problems, this might not be the place for you.

7.6 Good but not for everyone - Roni 05-04-2025

Review: We stayed for 3 nights. The location is great, very easy to reach everything. nThe staff were nice and helpful. nnWe had 2 things that bothered us - n1. The mattress wasnt very comfortable. We asked for an extra blanket to sleep on and it was better but not the best. (The pillows were also pretty small but they offered some extra). n2. The noise can be rough for light sleepers. Every shower or toilet flush above us was very loud. nnWe still recommend it if you're on budget as after all we did enjoy our stay.

9.0 Great location - Luca 07-04-2025

Positive points: Fantastic location. Close enough to walk to busy shopping streets but still tucked away enough to be nice and quiet. The guesthouse feels very safe.rnWiFi was excellent. Room was as described. Very clean. The shower was good with reliable hot water. Big bottle soaps were provided, so no wasteful miniatures. Minifridge worked well. Desk and chairs were small but manageable. Air-conditioning was good but a little noisy.rnThere is a nice downstairs area with a shared kitchen, which we enjoyed having access to. Laundry service is provided (for a fee), which we also appreciated.rnThe staff were fantastic. We only met one staff member the whole time we were here, but he was very hard-working and friendly.rnOverall, good value for money. We would consider staying here again, mostly for the location.

Negative points: The bed in our room was an old spring bed that has definitely seen better days as it was quite uncomfortable. Our room also didn't have any curtains, so it was exceedingly bright in the mornings. I think the hotel needs to add curtains to ensure that guests can sleep in on their holiday.rnrnOn a side note, our room was a triple room, seemingly two small rooms that have been converted into one. So there are two doors, both of which can be opened, even though one is partially behind the bed. There was no information or warning about this in our room so you can imagine our surprise when we suddenly realised that our room had been accessible through the 'other' door for the entirety of our stay. That being said, it's obviously a very safe hotel because it wasn't an issue. But I think the hotel needs to warn guests about this risk, or lock up the extra door.

8.0 Cheap and cheerful bolthole in a busy city. - Fiona 04-04-2025

Review: Ok so didn’t realise aircon only for Summer. Room was cold but I guess it’s relative. Once I spoke to staff heating not a problem again. Ideal location. Only a few minutes walk down to Subway Station and two stops from main Train Station. Wonderful Cheap Vegan Restaurant on doorstep and convenience stores everywhere. Only real complaints was outdoor areas a little rundown and woke one night to strong smell of faeces after room next door block toilet. I think that is a general problem though as it wasn’t the first time I smelt it on my journeys around the city. Not luxurious but all one really needed!

9.0 Excellent - Kristina 28-03-2025

Positive points: Very friendly staff. The location is amazing, close to the metro station. The property is clean.

10.0 Nice and Cozy! - Ma 25-03-2025

Review: The room is cozy and clean with a nice view of the N'Seoul Tower from the rooftop. Front Desk is very welcoming and helpful.

10.0 Affordable, clean and convenient location! - Sachi 03-03-2025

Positive points: Loved the location with proximity to everything I needed: restaurants, shops, trains, bus to airport. Enjoyed having buffet breakfast at the nearby Prince Hotel. rnrnChris at the front desk was very accommodating.

Negative points: Mattress was a tad hard, but I slept fine.

8.0 Decent stay - Su 02-03-2025

Review: Location was good 8-10mins walk from Myeongdong station exit 3. Walking from station can see the tip of the Namsan tower. Room was clean there was lift, host was good. Overall decent stay.

10.0 Amazing Value for Money! - Britni 25-02-2025

Positive points: Fantastic location, close to metro and nice shopping areas. A small room but clean and everything functional. Perfect for a solo-female traveler like myself. Staff were very friendly and I really appreciated the laundry service. nnGreat service, I read reviews the rooms get hot but my experience was the opposite. I was very cold, and I texted late after reception was closed. To my surprise, they responded quickly, turned up to temperature enough to where I could sleep without waking up sweating and provided me with an extra duvet cover. nnOverall great value for the price! Would stay again next time in Seoul! Also sweet they give a little welcome chain and good-bye treat. Small details are a nice touch

Negative points: Everything was great
