Disliked: Cleanliness
this place is for young travellers to stay a few days. I am an older person for long stay for that reason I made wrong choice. Mr. Ham is one of the staff who assisted me to make my stay in Seoul possible. Also encountered extremely rude staff who had no respect for older people.

Good for the price.
For the price this hostel, private room, was good. Just note room cleaning is every 4 days but you have towels and amenities available nearby. Location is excellent. Breakfast is simple, free and sufficient. Bed was not great but sufficient.
