The single rooms have a large double bed, air con, and an attached "wet room" (bathroom with shower head and drain). Towels and linens are provided and you're able to swap dirty for clean right away, no need to contact the staff. There is also a shelf of toiletries donated by past occupants. The bed had 4 pillows! Yay, but was a little stiff for my preference. The location is perfect as the Women's university subway stop is a short walk away and Seoul station only one more stop.

My mum and I have no regrets on choosing Banana Backpackers as the place to stay during our visit in Korea. The place was clean, organized, and pretty strategic. The staff were very nice and they speak English very well and very helpful! My mum and I brought a lot of stuff and our luggage was heavy, but the staff managed to help us in bringing our suitcases. There are many restaurants and stores around the hostel, and it is near bus stops and subway station; searching for food and accommodation was not a problem! I would definitely recommend Banana Bckpackers to those who plan to visit Seoul.

I stayed here for a week. Their kitchen and public spaces are always clean and the staff are very friendly. The terrace has great view. I would recommend the Banana backpackers to those who seeking for a quiet and nice place to stay in Seoul.

Room tip: Corner suites are quieter.

We stayed here 5 days in April, we're all like it, it's easy to go Banana from station, there is bus local in front of Banana, there are many restaurants in near, specially jajangmyun! :) I ate tiwce. We booked room for three but had a room for four, bed was good, pilow so soft, it's quite, we slept well. Staff very nice, English well, help us write a note "where we will go" in Korean so we could ask local person when we lost haha. We had a unforgetable trip in Seoul. Very recommend stay here!

My boyfriend and I stayed at Banana Backpackers for 8 Nights. We had a pleasant stay at this hostel since it is near line 4 station (Yong-san middle and high school) and most of the tourist attractions are accessible from the hostel. Also, the place is near restaurants and stores. The hostel is quiet as well. It has amenities such as kitchen, lounge, wi-fi access, laundry and roof top. They offer toiletries, use of towel etc. The entire ambiance is relaxed and chill. The room is spacious as well for couples with TV, aircon, hot and cold bath.
