10.0 Amazing! Highly recommend staying here, specially if it’s your first visit to Korea and if you are travelling solo. The - Nayana 10-06-2025

Positive points: For hostel standards, this one is truly a great experience! Very clean, well maintained hostel. The rooms are compact yet very comfortable and have all the necessary facilities needed. nnStaff are super friendly and helpful, they were genuinely ready to help with any request I had. They all spoke English fairly well, which was super helpful. nnThe location was my favorite part, literally everything is walking distance. I would definitely go back just for their prime location, truly best spot! Every single thing you need as a tourist is literally walking distance.. Super convenient, perfect location for those visiting to Seoul for the first time.

Negative points: Honestly, I enjoyed my stay completely. Nothing that I disliked. Super affordable, a comfortable hostel experience.

9.0 Great place for solo travelers, super well located - Daniela 24-05-2025

10.0 Great Stay! - Luis 21-05-2025

Positive points: Since it was a newly opened hostel, everything was very clean. There was even ramen and drinks are prepared at the service bar, and the bed was so cozy that I was very satisfied in many aspects. The subway station was also nearby, and the staff were friendly. I’d definitely recommend this place.

10.0 Nice pleasant stay, very clean and good price - Cho 21-05-2025

Positive points: I had a great stay! The room was very clean, the bed was really comfy. Staff were very responsive when I asked for something, it was brought almost immediately. The best part is the location, just a short walk from the subway station which made it easy to get around Seoul. For the price, it definitely exceeded my expectations. Great value overall!

8.0 Very good - Ran 12-05-2025

Positive points: Location, friendly staff

Negative points: Room is small

6.0 Ok if you are on a very tight budget, more suitable for teenagers. - Omar 07-05-2025

Positive points: The bed was mostly comfortable, and the sheets where clean, the room was clean also. Check-in and check-out where easy. Close to many attractions, restaurants, etc...

Negative points: The room was very small and barely enough room to move around, bathroom is 1 meter away from the bed, had bad smell since I walked it (smell of urine). The flooring material wasn't the best, the pictures show the property to be large in fact it is a small building on the corner of a one-way street

10.0 Exceptional - 欣欣 30-05-2025

Review: 环境干净 服务态度好 地理位置优越💯

4.0 Acceptable - Suzy 03-05-2025

Positive points: Everything was good and price was also fair.

Negative points: However, the noise from karaoke downstairs was too much. My partner and I could go sleep at night. The noise didn’t stop till 4am.

9.0 Great choice in downtown - MIN 12-04-2025

Positive points: Staff was so nice and patient. I can keep my luggages when I arrived early (before check in time 3pm).
