I stayed here for 5 days with a friend and stayed in double standard room.
Everything was great - the location, breakfast choices, toiletries/amenities and cleanliness. I love how everything is almost already provided! The owner is absolutely fantastic. They're so nice and have exceeded my expectations. I would definitely rebook with them again if ever I go to Korea for a visit.

Room Tip: Walls are quite thin though and no elevator, but owner will help you. Choose 2nd floor. :)

We stayed in this hostel for more than a week in our visit to Seoul, Korea. Our stay was pleasant. The hotel room was small, but clean which is very important to us and there was no smoking smell. The owner and staff were very nice and helpful. On our checking in day, the staff person carried our luggage upstairs to our room. They said that If we needed towel, water bottle or toilet paper, we were more than welcome to take them. They were placed at the entrance of the hostel. On our departure day, it was raining and the owner offered and carried our 2 luggage bags to the subway station. We are really thankful to him and we appreciated this gesture more than we can express.

The hostel was located very near to subway station. We took roughly five minutes walk from hostel to subway or the other way around. There was no lift, only stairs. But only few floors so not an issue. The room was attached with private bathroom. Even the room was small but it's clean. They provided simple breakfast like juice, milk, coffee, cereal & bread. Overall it was ok and value for money. We dont mind to stay again in future.

We stay a few days in this hostel during our trip at Korea and our valoration is really good. The service is good, clean room, prize is ok for the situation, breakfast included (toasts and coffe), towels and water in the room for free, and you could let the luggage there if you have to go to the airport maybe at night (for free). The room is really small, only the bed and bathroom. Good situation, near two minuts of metro station with good connections, and near to airport bus. You could go for walking to near important zones of Seoul.

My husband and I stayed here for three nights and our experience was good. Our room was a bit small, but it was no big deal. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was okay. Location was accessible by subway. Breakfast was composed of cereals, jam, and bread. Will stay here again.

Very near the subway system. The owner was incredible, extremely nice and helpful. Rooms are not big but good enough for me (6'3", 200lbs) and my girlfriend. They are also very clean and well maintained. Great value.
